Debolina Shah answered
The pattern here is that each number is the product of the previous two numbers, plus the sum of the previous two numbers.

For example:

- 3 = 1*2 + 1+2
- 4 = 2*1 + 2+3
- 10 = 3*2 + 3+4
- 33 = 4*3 + 4+10
- 136 = 10*4 + 10+33

So to find the next number in the sequence, we need to apply the same formula:

- ? = 33*10 + 33+136
- ? = 330+169

Therefore, the next number in the sequence is 499.

None of the given options match this answer, so the correct answer is not listed.

Lakshya Sagare answered
The correct answer is option c because:-

So, if 88 is doubled, we get 176. Hence, 178 + 176 = 354. Thus, the missing term in the sequence is 354. Therefore, the complete series is 13, 24, 46, 90, 178, 354.

Atharva Jain answered
Explanation:
The given series is 25: 37:: 49: ?

To find the missing number, we need to observe the pattern in the given series.

Pattern:
If we look at the given series, we can see that each pair of numbers has a difference of 12.

Let's break down the series into pairs:

- 25 and 37: The difference is 37 - 25 = 12
- 49 and ?: We need to find the missing number.

Calculation:
To find the missing number, we can add 12 to the second number in the pair.

- 49 + 12 = 61

Therefore, the missing number is 61.

Verification:
We can verify our answer by checking if the pattern holds true for the rest of the series:

- 37 and 49: The difference is 49 - 37 = 12
- 49 and 61: The difference is 61 - 49 = 12

Since the pattern holds true for the entire series, we can confidently say that the missing number is 61.

Conclusion:
The missing number in the series 25: 37:: 49: ? is 61. Therefore, option C (65) is incorrect. The correct answer is option C (61).

Complete the series 1, 2, 10, 37, 101, __.
  • a)
    160
  • b)
    185
  • c)
    200
  • d)
    226
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Understanding the Series
The given series is: 1, 2, 10, 37, 101, __.
To identify the pattern, let's look at the differences between the consecutive terms.
Calculating Differences
- 2 - 1 = 1
- 10 - 2 = 8
- 37 - 10 = 27
- 101 - 37 = 64
This gives us a new series of differences: 1, 8, 27, 64.
Identifying a Pattern in Differences
Now, let's analyze these differences:
- 1 = 1³
- 8 = 2³
- 27 = 3³
- 64 = 4³
The differences are the cubes of consecutive integers: \( n^3 \), where \( n \) is the position in the series.
Finding the Next Difference
Following this pattern, the next difference would be:
- 5³ = 125
Calculating the Next Term
Now, we can find the next term in the original series:
- Previous term: 101
- Next difference: 125
So,
101 + 125 = 226.
Conclusion
Thus, the next term in the series is 226.
Correct answer: option 'D'.

Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Kiran Reddy answered
Given series: 2, 3, 12, 37, 86, 166, 288.
2 + 12 = 2 + 1 = 3
3 + 32 = 3 + 9 = 12
12 + 52 = 12 + 25 = 37
37 + 72 = 37 + 49 = 86
86 + 92 = 86 + 81 = 167
167 + 112 = 167 + 121 = 288.
Here, the series follows a pattern of addition of the square of the consecutive odd numbers.
So, from the given number series 2, 3, 12, 37, 86, 166, 288, the wrong term is 166, because it should be 167.

16, 22, 30, 40, 52, 66, 82, ? 
  • a)
    100  
  • b)
    98  
  • c)
    102
  • d)
    104
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Pattern Analysis:
The given sequence of numbers is: 16, 22, 30, 40, 52, 66, 82, ?

Identifying the Pattern:
- The difference between consecutive numbers is as follows:
- 22 - 16 = 6
- 30 - 22 = 8
- 40 - 30 = 10
- 52 - 40 = 12
- 66 - 52 = 14
- 82 - 66 = 16

Applying the Pattern:
Following the pattern of increasing differences between consecutive numbers, the next difference should be 18.

Finding the Missing Number:
- Adding 18 to the last number in the sequence (82), we get:
- 82 + 18 = 100
Therefore, the missing number in the sequence is 100.

Final Answer:
The missing number in the sequence 16, 22, 30, 40, 52, 66, 82, ? is 100 (Option A).

Kaavya Mishra answered
The given series is 4, 18, ___, 100, 180, 294, 448. We need to find the missing number in the series.

To solve this problem, we need to identify the pattern or relationship between the numbers in the series.

Pattern Analysis:
Let's analyze the given series to identify any pattern or relationship between the numbers.

- The first number in the series is 4.
- The second number is obtained by multiplying the first number by 4 and then adding 2. So, 4 * 4 + 2 = 18.
- The third number can be obtained by multiplying the second number by 4 and then subtracting 6. So, 18 * 4 - 6 = 66.
- The fourth number is obtained by multiplying the third number by 4 and then adding 2. So, 66 * 4 + 2 = 266.
- The fifth number is obtained by multiplying the fourth number by 4 and then subtracting 20. So, 266 * 4 - 20 = 100.
- The sixth number is obtained by multiplying the fifth number by 4 and then adding 2. So, 100 * 4 + 2 = 402.
- The seventh number is obtained by multiplying the sixth number by 4 and then subtracting 6. So, 402 * 4 - 6 = 1594.

We can see that there is an alternating pattern of multiplying by 4 and subtracting or adding a constant value in each step. Using this pattern, we can find the missing number.

Calculating the Missing Number:
To find the missing number, we need to apply the pattern to the previous number in the series.

- The sixth number is 402, which was obtained by multiplying the fifth number (100) by 4 and then adding 2.
- So, to find the missing number, we need to apply the pattern to the sixth number.

Applying the pattern:
The sixth number (402) was obtained by multiplying the fifth number (100) by 4 and then adding 2. So, the missing number can be obtained by multiplying 402 by 4 and then subtracting 6.

Missing number = 402 * 4 - 6
= 1608 - 6
= 1602

Therefore, the missing number in the given series is 1602.

Hence, the correct answer is option C) 1602.

Kds Coaching answered
The terms are given in a series:
(23 - 1) = 7
(33 - 1) = 26
(43 - 1) = 63
(53 - 1) = 124
(63 - 1) = 215
(73 - 1) = 342
So, the missing term is,
(83 - 1) = 511.

Shilpa Shah answered
Understanding the Sequence
The sequence given is: 27, 56, 114, 230, 462, 926. To find the next number, we first need to identify a pattern in the differences between consecutive terms.
Identifying Differences
- 56 - 27 = 29
- 114 - 56 = 58
- 230 - 114 = 116
- 462 - 230 = 232
- 926 - 462 = 464
The differences between the terms are: 29, 58, 116, 232, 464.
Observing the Pattern in Differences
Now, let's analyze the differences:
- 29 (which is 29)
- 58 (which is 2 * 29)
- 116 (which is 4 * 29)
- 232 (which is 8 * 29)
- 464 (which is 16 * 29)
We can see that each difference is double the previous difference.
Calculating the Next Difference
Following this pattern, the next difference should be:
- 464 * 2 = 928
Finding the Next Term
To find the next term in the sequence, add the last term (926) to the next difference (928):
- 926 + 928 = 1854
Conclusion
Therefore, the next number in the sequence is 1854, making option 'B' the correct answer.

Gunjan Lakhani answered
2 + 3 + 6 + 9 = 20 
So, 202 = 400
1 + 4 + 9 + 13 = 27 
So,  272 = 729
9 + 8 + 11 + 2 = 30 
So, 302 = 900
So, the correct answer is 900
