In each of these questions a number series is given. In each series only one number is wrong. Find out the wrong number.
94, 115, 138, 163, 190, 218
The series follows the pattern: 102 - 6 = 94 112 - 6 = 115 122 - 6 = 138 132 - 6 = 163 142 - 6 = 190 152 - 6 = 219 219 will come in place of 218.
19, 35, 71, 135, 235, 380
19 + 42 = 35 35 + 62 = 71 71 + 82 = 135 135 + 102 = 235 235 + 122 = 379 Therefore, 379 should come in place of 380.
15, 31, 67, 131, 231, 370
15 + 42 = 31 31 + 62 = 67 67 + 82 = 131 131 + 102 = 231 231 + 122 = 375 Therefore, 375 should come in place of 370.
23 30 44 65 92 128
23 + 7 x 1 = 30 30 + 7 x 2 = 44 44 + 7 x 3 = 65 65 + 7 x 4 = 93 93 + 7 x 5 = 128
9 20 63 255 1285 7716
9 x 2 + 2 = 20 20 x 3 + 3 = 63 63 x 4 + 4 = 256 256 x 5 + 5 = 1285 1285 x 6 + 6 = 7716
216, 110, 163, 409.5, 1437.25, 6442.625, 35432.4375
216x0.5+2 = 108+2 = 110 110x1.5-2 = 165-2 = 163 163x2.5+2 = 407.5+2 = 409.5 409.5x3.5-2 = 1433.25-2 = 1431.25 1431.25x4.5+2 = 6440.625+2 = 6442.625 6442.625x5.5-2 = 35434.4375-2 = 35432.4375 Here 1437.25 is the wrong number.
41, 50, 86, 167, 310, 536
41 + 32 = 50 50 + 62 = 86 86 + 92 = 167 167 + 122 = 311 311 + 152 = 536 Therefore, 311 will come in place of 310.
6, 6, 12, 15, 30, 48, 78, 126
6 + 6 = 12 12 + 6 = 18 18 + 12 = 30 30 + 18 = 48 48 + 30 = 78 78 + 48 = 126 Therefore, 18 will come in place of 15.
47, 48, 46, 50, 44, 58
47 + 20 = 48 48 – 21 = 46 46 + 22 = 50 50 – 23 = 42 42 + 24 = 58 Therefore, 42 will come in place of 44.
12, 36, 144, 432, 1730, 5184
12 × 3 = 36 36 × 4 = 144 144 × 3 = 432 432 × 4 = 1728 1728 × 5 = 5184 Therefore, 1728 will come in place of 1730.
