101. What is the next number in the sequence? 23, 5, 63, 9, 73, ?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 13

Explanation Let's look at the pattern in the sequence: 23, 5, 63, 9, 73, ? Break it into two alternating sequences: - 1st, 3rd, 5th terms (odd positions): 23, 63, 73 - 2nd, 4th, 6th terms (even positions): 5, 9, ? Odd positions: 23 → 63 → 73 → +40 → +10 Even positions: 5 → 9 → ? → +4 → ? If the pattern of +4 continues: 9 + 4 = 13

102. What is a and b in the given sequence? a, 13, 9, 3, -5, -15, b

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 15,-27

Explanation

103. If A is smaller than B, but taller than C and D, who is tallest of all three?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: B

Explanation Step-by-step explanation: A < B A > C and D C and D < A < B so B is the tallest ***** ND04-12-2022 ND23-6-2023

104. 10 people shake hands with each other.Total how many hands shaked?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 45

Explanation If 10 people meet and shakes hand with each other. First person will shakes hand with other 9, second person had already shakes hand with 1st person and shakes hand with other 8, So, the total no. of handshakes= 9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1=45 Shakes The other way to calculate this is by the formula n(n+1)/2 where n is the no. of shake hands by very first person and that is 9. So, the total no. of handshakes=9(9+1)/2 = 9(10)/2 =90/2 =45

105. A series contains values 5, 9, 3, 1, 4, 6. Its median is?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 4.5

Explanation Median of 5, 9, 3, 1, 4, 6: Arrange: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9 Median = average of middle two = (4 + 5)/2 = 4.5

106. 121, 144, 169, 196, what comes next?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 225

Explanation These are all perfect squares: - 121 = 11² - 144 = 12² - 169 = 13² - 196 = 14² Next number should be: - 15² = 225

107. Find the missing term in the following series; 240, ______, 120,40,10,2.

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 220

Explanation The series is divided by 2 to get the next term, so: 240 ÷ 2 = 120 120 ÷ 2 = 40 40 ÷ 2 = 10 10 ÷ 2 = 2 And preceding the 240, we have: 440 ÷ 2 = 220 So, the correct sequence is: 220, 240, 120, 40, 10, 2.

108. Find the 34th term of the given sequence -31, -21, - 11, -1, 9, _____?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 299

Explanation The given sequence is: -31, -21, -11, -1, 9 Let's find the common difference (d): d = (-21) - (-31) = 10 d = (-11) - (-21) = 10 d = (-1) - (-11) = 10 d = 9 - (-1) = 10 The sequence is an arithmetic progression (AP) with a common difference of 10. The nth term of an AP is given by: an = a + (n - 1)d where a is the first term (-31), n is the term number (34), and d is the common difference (10). a34 = -31 + (34 - 1) * 10 = -31 + 33 * 10 = -31 + 330 = 299

109. What is next number in the following series: 32,6,43,12,64?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 18

Explanation Given series: 32, 6, 43, 12, 64, ? Let’s separate the odd and even positioned numbers: Odd positions (1st, 3rd, 5th...): 32, 43, 64 → Increases by 11 and 21 - 32 → 43 (+11) - 43 → 64 (+21) - Expected next increase: +31 → 64 + 31 = 95 Even positions (2nd, 4th...): 6, 12 → Increases by 6 - 6 → 12 (+6) - Next: 12 + 6 = 18 So complete sequence becomes: 32, 6, 43, 12, 64, 18, 95...

110. Complete the series: 1, 2, 4, 7, 11, 16, ______?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 22

Explanation The pattern of the series is: +1, +2, +3, +4, +5... So, the next difference should be +6: 16 + 6 = 22 The correct answer is 22 .
