Since first second varieties are mixed in equal proportions, so their average price = Rs.(126+135)/2= Rs.130.50

So, Now the mixture is formed by mixing two varieties, one at Rs. 130.50 per kg and the other at say Rs. 'x' per kg in the ratio 2 : 2, i.e., 1 : 1. We have to find 'x'.

Cost of 1 kg tea of 1st kind         Cost of 1 kg tea of 2nd kind 

x-153/22.50 = 1  => x - 153 = 22.50  => x=175.50.

 Hence, price of the third variety = Rs.175.50 per kg.

In each term second two numbers are multiples of the first number. But in 4-15-24 15 is not multiple of 4.

$$\begin{gathered} 13 x ? + 47 x 114 x 539 = 31100 x 2000 \\ ? = 378 x 3 \\ ? = 1134 \end{gathered}$$

The given number series is 6, 6, 9, 18, 45, ?

Here the series follows a pattern that,

6 

6 x 1 = 6

6 x 1.5 = 9

9 x 2 = 18

18 x 2.5 = 45

45 x 3 = 135

Hence, the next number in the given number series is 135.

The given number series follows a pattern that, 4, 15, 37, 81, ?

4

4 + 11 = 15

15 + 22 = 37

37 + 44 = 81

81 + 88 = 169

Hence, the next number in the sequence is 169.

The given number series is 3, 12, 39, 120, 364

$$\begin{gathered} 3 \\ 3 + 32 = 3 + 9 = 12 \\ 12 + 33 = 12 + 27 = 39 \\ 39 + 34 = 39 + 81 = 120 \\ 120 + 35 = 120 + 243 = 363 (Not 364) \end{gathered}$$
