(b) 52
(c) 26
(d) 31
Ans.(d)
Sol. 62
+ 7 = 36 + 7 = 43
+ 7 = 36 + 7 = 43
Similarly
52 + 6 = 25 + 6 = 31
Q4. 42 : 56 : : 110 : ?
(a) 123
(b) 156
(c) 132
(d) 158
Ans.(c)
Sol. First
term = (6)2
+ 6= 42
term = (6)2
+ 6= 42
Second term = (7)2 +
7 = 56
7 = 56
Similarly
Third term = (10)2 +
10 = 110
10 = 110
Fourth
term = (11)2 + 11 = 132
term = (11)2 + 11 = 132

Directions(10-11): In each of the following questions a number series is given. Below the series, a number along with (1), (2), (3) (4) and (5) is given. You have to complete the series following the same sequence as that of the given series. Then answer the question that follows.
Q10. 5 , 7, 10, 36, 136, 690
2 ,(1), (2) , (3), (4), (5)
What will come in place of (4)?
(a) 310
(b) 64
(c) 110
(d) 330
Ans.(b)
Sol. The series is based on the following pattern:
5 × 1 + 2 = 7
7 × 2 – 4 = 10
10 × 3 + 6 = 36
36 × 4 – 8 = 136
136 × 5 + 10 = 690
Similarly, the new series is as follows:
2 × 1 + 2 = 4 …. (1)
4 × 2 – 4 = 4 …. (2)
4 × 3 + 6 = 18 …. (3)
18 × 4 – 8 = 64 …. (4)
64 × 5 +10 = 330 ….(5)
Therefore, the number 64 will come in place of (4).
Q11. 8, 4, 6, 15, 52.5, 236.25
4, (1), (2), (3), (4), (5)
What will come in place of (3)?
(a) 36.25
(b) 33.25
(c) 7.5
(d) 32.75
Ans.(c)
Sol. The series is based on following pattern:
8 × 0.5 = 4,
4 × 1.5 = 6,
6 × 2.5 = 15,
15 × 3.5 = 52.6,
52.5 × 4.5 = 236.25
Similarly,
4 × 0.5 = 2 …. (1)
2 × 1.5 = 3 …. (2)
3 × 2.5 = 7.5 …. (3)
7.5 × 3.5 = 26.25 . …(4)
Therefore, the number 7.5 will come in place of (3)
Q12. In a certain code BOARD is written as 51324 and SIDE is written as 9647. How is BASE written in that code?
(a) 5297
(b) 5937
(c) 5697
(d) 5397
Q13. In a certain code language ‘how many goals scored’ is written as ‘5 3 9 7’; ‘many more matches’ is written as ‘9 8 2’; and ‘he scored five’ is written as ‘1 6 3′. How is ‘goals’ written in that code language?
(a) 5
(b) 7
(c) 5 or 7
(d) Data inadequate
Ans.(c)
Sol. how many goals scored = 5 3 9 7 …(i)
many more matches = 9 8 2 …(ii)
he scored five = 1 6 3 …(iii)
From (i) and (ii), many = 9 …(iv)
From (i) and (iii), scored = 3 …(v)
Using (iv) and (v) in (i), we get goals = 5 or 7.
