Answer: C) 18.5 Explanation: The given series pattern follows   17       9       10       18.5       35       90   × 0.5 + 0.5,   × 1 + 1,   × 1.5 + 1.5,   × 2 + 2,   × 2.5 + 2.5   So here    17x0.5 + 0.5 = 9   9x1 + 1 = 10   10x1.5 + 1.5 = 16.5   16.5x2 + 2 = 35   35x2.5 + 2.5 = 90   Here the odd man in the given series is 18.5

Answer: C) Rs. 9000 Explanation: Let Rs. K invested in each scheme Two years C.I on 20% = 20 + 20 + 20x20/100 = 44% Two years C.I on 15% = 15 + 15 + 15x15/100 = 32.25% Now, (P x 44/100) - (P x 32.25/100) = 528.75 => 11.75 P = 52875 => P = Rs. 4500   Hence, total invested money = P + P = 4500 + 4500 = Rs. 9000.
