Directions: Find the missing term in the following number series.
0.5, 3, 15, 72, ?, 2310

Detailed Solution: Question 4

In this series, each term first undergoes addition (with 1, 2, 3 and so on), followed by multiplication of the result (by 2, 3, 4, 5 and so on).
(0.5 + 1) × 2 = 3
(3 + 2) × 3 = 15
(15 + 3) × 4 = 72
(72 + 4) × 5 = 380
(380 + 5) × 6 = 2310
Thus, 380 is the missing number.

The numbers follow this pattern.
3.5 + 11 × 1 = 14.5
14.5 + 11 × 2 = 36.5
36.5 + 11 × 3 = 69.5
69.5 + 11 × 4 = 113.5
113.5 + 11 × 5 = 168.5

The given sequence is a combination of two series.
Series I: 8, 12, 18, 26, ?
The pattern I follows: +4, +6, +8, +10
Series II: 7, 10, 16, 25
The pattern II follows: +3, +6, +9
So, missing term = 26 + 10 = 36

34 + 4 = 85
35 + 5 = 248
36 + 6 = 735

Test Level 2: Series - Question 9
Save

What will come in the place of question mark in the following number series?
587, 443, 343, 279, 243, ?

Detailed Solution: Question 9

The sequence used in the series is following this pattern. 
587 - 122 = 587 - 144 = 443,
443 - 102 = 443 - 100 = 343,
343 - 82 = 343 - 64 = 279,
279 - 62 = 279 - 36 = 243,
243 - 42 = 243 - 16 = 227 
Thus, missing number is 227.

Test Level 2: Series - Question 10
Save

20, ?, 11, 25, 93, 459

Detailed Solution: Question 10

The series follows the following pattern. 
20 × 1 - 10 = 10
10 × 2 - 9 = 11
11 × 3 - 8 = 25
25 × 4 - 7 = 93
93 × 5 - 6 = 459
Hence, the missing number is 10.

112 + 62 = 148
148 + 52 = 173
173 + 42 = 189
189 + 32 = 198
198 + 22 = 202
202 + 12 = 203 
Thus, the missing number is 202.

The series is following the given pattern. 
17 + 32 - 1 = 25
25 + 32 - 2 = 32
32 + 32 - 3 = 38
38 + 32 - 4 = 43
43 + 32 - 5 = 47
47 + 32 - 6 = 50
Thus, the missing number is 32.

Test Level 2: Series - Question 13
Save

Find the wrong number in the following number series.
7, 9, 11, 15, 21, 35

Detailed Solution: Question 13

The pattern is:
11 = 9 + 7 - 5
15 = 11 + 9 - 5
21 = 11 + 15 - 5
35 ≠ 15 + 21 - 5
So, 35 is the wrong term. It should be 31.

Test Level 2: Series - Question 14
Save

Find the wrong number in the following number series.
1050, 510, 242, 106, 46, 16, 3

Detailed Solution: Question 14

The pattern is:
1050 ÷ 2 - 15 = 510
510 ÷ 2 - 13 = 242
242 ÷ 2 - 11 = 110
110 ÷ 2 - 9 = 46
46 ÷ 2 - 7 = 16
16 ÷ 2 - 5 = 3
Hence, the wrong term is 106.
