Clearly, alternatively we add and subtract 10% of a term to obtain the next term of the series.
Thus, 10000 + (10% of 10000)= 11000;
11000 - (10% of 11000) = 9900;
 9900 + (10% of 9900)  = 10890;
10890 - (10% of 10890) = 9801.
 9801 + (10% of 9801)  = 9801+980 = 10781.
So, missing term = 10890- (10% of 10890)= 9801.

The given number series follows a pattern that,

56

56 + 8 = 64

64 - 16 = 48

48 + 32 = 80 (Not equal to 90)

80 - 64 = 16

16 + 128 = 144 

Hence, the odd number in the given number series is 90.

The given number series is 6, 8, 5, 10, 4, 14

6

6 + 2 = 8

8 - 3 = 5

5 + 5 = 10

10 - 7 = 3

3 + 11 = 14

...

Hence, the odd man in the given series is 4.

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

Compounded Ratio :: When we compound two or more ratio's with each other through product or multiplication, the result is simply a compound ratio.

Thus, the product of two or more ratios; i.e, ab:cd is a ratio compounded of the simple ratios a:c and b:d.

Required compounded ratio = (2/3 x 6/11 x 11/2) = 2/1. 

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 is 2, 3, 7, 16, 32, ?

$$\begin{gathered} 2 \\ 2 + 12 = 3 \\ 3 + 22 = 7 \\ 7 + 32 = 16 \\ 16 + 42 = 32 \\ 32 + 52 = 57 \\ \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the next number in the given number series is 57.

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