Question Detail

Complete the series, 3, 8, 13, 24, 41, ?

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Pattern of the above series is
first + second + 2, second + third + 3, third + fourth + 4......
So next term will be
24 + 41 + 5 = 70

1. 1,1,3,9,6,36,10,100,(..),225

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Given sequence is combination of two series
Series 1 : 1,3,6,10,..
Series 2 : 1,9,36,100,225

In series 1 pattern is +2, +3, +4. So next term will be
10+5 = 15

2. 1, 2, 5, 12, 27, 58, 121, ?

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Pattern in the series is *2+1, *2+2, *2+3,.....

Term which replaces the question mark in the series is
121 * 2 + 6 = 248

3. 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 14, (...) ?

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Please check that given sequence consists of two series

Series 1: 5, 7, 10, 14
Series 2: 6, 8, 11, ...

In series 2 pattern is +2, +3, Next will be +4
So required number in the series will be 11+4 = 15

4. Which fraction will come next, \begin{aligned} \frac{1}{2}, \frac{3}{4}, \frac{5}{8}, \frac{7}{16}, ? \end{aligned}

\begin{aligned} \frac{11}{32} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{9}{28} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{9}{30} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{9}{32} \end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Numerators of the fractions in the given sequence are getting increased by 2, i.e. 1+2,3+2,5+2, so next will be 7+2 = 9

Denominators of the fractions in the series is getting doubled, 2*2 = 4, 4*2 = 8, 8*2 = 16, no next will be 16*2 = 32

So resulting fraction will be
\begin{aligned}
\frac{9}{32}
\end{aligned}

5. 8, 10, 14, 18, (...), 34, 50, 66

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Patten is +2, +4, +4, .., .., +16, +16

Missing number will be 18+8 = 26
