Type I :

In this kind of inquiries, a series of numbers is given with one number missing represented by a question mark.

Q 30, 34, 43, 59, 84, 120,?

(1) 169
(2) 148
(3) 153
(4) 176
(5) None of these
Solution: (1) The given pattern is:
+22, 32, +42, + 62, +72
So, missing term is 169=120 +72

Q 40, 54, 82, ?, 180 ,250
(1) 142
(2) 124
(3) 136
(4) 163
(5) None of these

Solution: (2) The pattern is: +14, + 28, + 42, + 52, + 70
So, missing term is 82 + 42=124


Type 2 :- In this we are given a sequence of number. Whole sequence, except the odd number follow a certain rule.

Q 0, 1,3,8,18,35,264
(1) 62
(2) 35
(3) 18
(4) 8
(5) None of these
Solution: (1) The pattern is +(02+1), +(12+1), + (22+1) ,+ (32+1), + (42+1), + (52+1)
So, 62 is wrong and must be replaced by 35 + (52+1) = 62

Q 1, 9, 125, 49, 729, 121, 2147
(1) 2147
(2) 729
(3) 125
(4) 1
(5) None of these
Solution: (1)
