Explanation With Answer Key:

1. The series is 50 + 1^2 = 51, 51 – 2^2 = 47, 47 + 3^2 = 56, 56 – 4^2 = 40, 40 + 5^2 = 65, 65 – 6^2 = 29.

Hence, there should be 40 in place of 42.

Answer is: d)

2. The series is 3 × 2 + 3 = 9, 9 × 3 – 4 = 23, 23 × 4 + 5 = 97, 97 × 5 – 6 = 479, 479 × 6 + 7 = 2881, 2881 × 7 – 8 = 20159

Hence, there should be 97 in place of 99.

Answer is: c)

3. The series is x0.5 + 0.5, x1 + 1, x 1.5 + 1.5, x 2 + 2, x 2.5 + 2.5, x 3 + 3…

Answer is: a)

4. The series is 1 × 2 + 1 = 3, 3 × 2 + 0 = 6, 6 × 2 – 1 = 11, 11 × 2 – 2 = 20, 20 × 2 – 3 = 37, 37 × 2 – 4 = 70.

Hence, there should be 37 in place of 39.
