- 12.) the sequence is a mixture of multiplication & addition.
1st,4th,7th & 10th terms are written in ascending order as 1,2,3,4.
then 1st term*2nd term=3rd term i.e 1*3=3
4th + 5th =6th i.e. 2+8=10
again, 7th*8th=9th i.e. 3*4=12
and 10th term + 11th term =ans i.e. 4+8=12.
therefore the ans will be 12.

- 7) the sequence is like this...
2,3^2,5,7^2,11,13^2,17
it is a series of prime nos and prime no. squares respectively..
after 13 next prime no. is 17. so ans is 17 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(17) No(1)
- 4. 10+2=12 and 12*(-3)=-36
-7+2=-5 and -5*(-3)=15
19+2=21 so 21*(-3)= (-63) ans
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(14) No(1)
- 2) given series is wrong
correct series is 4,2,-4,-8,32,26,-156,?
for this take two numbers at a time and calculate differences
4-2=2;
-4-(-8)=4;
32-26=6;
-156-(x)=8
therefore x=-156-8 become x=-164;
Answer is -164 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(14) No(1)
- 8) 40,39,37,33,26,15,?

- 1.30.5 rounded off to 31 and 31 rounded off to ten's place i.e 30 and 30 rounded off to hundred's place i.e 0
similarly with 67.2,coming to 183.9 first it is rounded to unit's place i.e 184 hence ans=184 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(9) No(5)
- 30.5, 31, 30, 0
30.5 is rounded to 31 -> 31 to nearest 10s is 30 -> 30 to nearest 100s is 0
67.2, 67, 70, 100
67.2 is rounded tp 67 -> 67 to nearest 10s is 70 -> 70 to nearest 100s is 100
183.9 will be rounded off to 184
184 to nearest 10s will be 180
180 to nearest 100s will be 200 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(9) No(2)
- (10) 1370,1320,1070,--
1370-1320=50
1320-1070=250
first diff=50
50 X 5=250 ,so for third diff 250 X 5=1250
1070-1250= -180
-180 is right answer - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(9) No(0)

- 6) group them as a group of 4: 1,1,1,2 : 2,2,3,4 : 3,3,5,6 :4,?
in each group 1st and 2nd term is an addition of 1 to the corresponding position in the previous group and 2nd and 3rd elements are an addition of 2 to its corresponding position in the previous group.
eg: in the 2nd group
1+1,1+1,1+2,2+2 = 2,2,3,4
so here the missing term value is 4
