Answer: Option 4
Complete the series 7, 26, 63, 124, 215, 342, ?
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.
Complete the series 165, 195, 255, 285, 345, ?
Each number of given series is 15 multiplied by a prime number.
15*11, 15*13, 15*17, 15*19, 15*23. . . . So, Missing number is
15*29 = 435.
Complete the Series 34, 45, 56, 67.......
34(+11) → 45(+11) → 56(+11) →67 (+11) → 78.
In the following number series a wrong number is given. Find out the wrong number.
150, 450, 750, 1060, 1350, 1650, 1950
By adding 300 to each term, we get the next term. 1060 is wrong term. It should be 1050.
Complete the series 5690, 5121, 4552, 3983, 3414, 2845, ?
By subtracting 569, we get the next term.
Required number,
