Neha Gupta  (9 years ago)

1. Series will be 0,8,12, 26, 23, x
ans - 43
coz ist series diff 1,12,23 is 12 & 11 which is decreasing by 1
nd 2nd series diff 8, 26, x will be 18 & 17 decreasing by 1

5) 0.44,4.4,0.88,26.4,0.1056
0.44*10 = 4.4
4.4*0.2 = .88
.88*30 = 26.4
26.4*.4 = 0.1056
0.1056*50 = 5.880

(18,24,5)(21,27,8)(17,23,4)(24,30,?)
18-24= 6 24-5=19
21-27=6 27-8=19
17-23=6 23-4=19
24-30=6 30-x=19
x=11

8)9,12,4,8,12,15,5,9,3,6,2,6,6,9,?
take 9, 12, 4, 8 3, 6, 2 ,6
12, 15, 5, 9 6, 9
9+3=12,12+3=15,4+1=5,8+1=5
3+3=6,6+3=9,2+1=3,6+1=7
ans:3,7 just add +3+3+1+1 to above series simple

P KRISHNA  (9 years ago)

4) Start with the number 48.
48-2=46
48-6=42
48-10=38
48-14=34
The intervals between 2, 6, 10, and therefore 14 are all 4.

So the next number is 34

6) Series is wrong.

17,19,23,29,37...
17+2=19
19+4=23
23+6=29
29+8=37
37+10=47

So ans is : 47.

Balaji  (9 years ago)

Question 7 is wrong..
actual Questn is
44,4.4,.88,.264,0.1056
44*.1 = 4.4
4.4*.2 = .88
.88*.3 = .264
.264*.4 = .1056
.1056 * .5 = .0528

rohan  (9 years ago)

1. series will be 0,8,12,26,33
ans 53
diff 8,4,14,7,
see carefully 8/4=2,14/7=2 and then 20/10=2
8 add 6=14
14 add 6=20
so last term is 33 plus 20=53

13)4,2,5,9,5,11,13,7,16,17,9,21
And: 21
Take (4,2,5). 4-2=2
5-2=3
Take (9,5,11). 9-5=4
11-5=6
Take(13,7,16), 13-7=6
16-7=9
Take (17,9,21 . 17-9=8
21-9=12

hina yamin  (7 years ago)

Q3)Is wrong the correct sequence is:1/2,1/2,1/4,1/6,1/8,1/18,1/16,?
split the sequence in two series first series contain the terms in odd place :1/2,1/4,1/8,1/16:
1/2*1/2=1/4
1/4*1/2=1/8
and so on and the third series is multiple of 1/3 like 1/2*1/3=1/6 and so on so the answer is 1/54
