- 1) 28,17,23,17,26,16,22,16,24,15,21,15
Make this in 4 parts of series
28, 26, 24, 22(Ans)
17, 16,15 Fully Solved
23,22,21 Comment if you have any quarries
17,16,15
ans 22
-----------------------------------------------------
2) 1/5,1/2,1/3,2/5,1,2/3,3/5,11/2,1,4/5
Make it into three part
1/5,2/5,3/5,4/5
1/2,2/2,3/2,4/2(ans)
1/3,2/3,3/3
Ans 2
-----------------------------------------------------
3) -3,-6,-9,-82,-80,-30,-33,-36,-55,-53,-24
-3,-6,-9 difference=-3
-82,-80, difference=-2
-30,-33,-36 difference=-3
-55,-53 difference=-2
-24 so next difference also -3 i.e -24-3=-27
ans -27
-------------------------------------------------------
4) 34.274,34.2744,34.2784,34.3184
34.2744-34.274 = .0004
34.2784-34.2744= .0040
34.3184-34.2784 = .0400
x - 34.3184 = .4000
so x = 34.3184 + .4000 = 34.7184
ans = 34.7184
------------------------------------------------------------
5) 8,16,3,27,4,8,7,19,2,0,7
8+16+3=27
4+8+7=19
2+0+7=9
ans = 9
-----------------------------------------------------------
6) -3,6,1,-2,4,-1,-1,2,-3
make this series into 3 parts
-3, -2, -1, 0(ans)
6, 4, 2, 0
1, -1, -3, -5
ans 0
----------------------------------------------------------
7) 2,3,10,15,26
2= (1*1)+1
3= (2*2)-1
10= (3*3)+1
15= (4*4)-1
26= (5*5)+1
x= (6*6)-1
ans = 35
---------------------------------------------------------
8) 0.03,0.0018,0.00108,0.00648,0.3888
0.0018/0.03= 0.06
0.00108/0.0018= 0.6
0.00648/0.00108=6
0.3888/0.00648=60
x/0.3888 = 600
so x = 600*0.3888 = 233.28
ans 233.28
----------------------------------------------------------
9) 0,1,2,0.5,2,3,5,1,2,0,2,1,4,2,3
for 0,1,2,0.5 - -> 0+1 = 1, 1/2 = 0.5
for 2,3,5,1 ---> 2+3 = 5, 5/5 = 1
for 2,0,2,1 ---> 4+2 = 6, 6/3 =2
ans 2

ans. 157.6
--------------------------------------------------------
11) 5,5,7,7,9,11,11,13,13,17,17,15,19,17
wrong series i think
it should be 5,5,7,7,9,11,11,13,13,17,15,19,17,?
1st series difference is +2 ----> 5,7,9,11,13,15,17
2nd series difference is +2 then +4 ---> 5,7,11,13,17,19,23

- 17) answer for 17 th que is: 32
because, 11-8=3
17-14=3, and
23-24=-1
31-32=-1 ; Hence the diff between the alternate no is 3 and -1.
So, we have to subtract 3 from 35.

- 37,73,9,49,58,85,25,64,29,92,?
1st 2 elements are 37,73
3rd and 4th element is consist of 3^2=9,7^2=49
so if we consider 29 and 92 then we can say 2^2=4 and 9^2=81
