The given puzzle follows a logic that,

2 + 10 = 24 => 2 + 10 = 12 x 2 = 24

3 + 6 = 27 => 3 + 6 = 9 x 3 = 27

7 + 2 = 63 = 7 + 2 = 9 x 7 = 63

Similarly, 5 + 3 = 40 => 5 + 3 = 8 x 5 = 40.

Given a x a = 12

asked to find a x a x a x a =  (a x a) x (a x a)

a⁴ = a² x a² 

= 12 x 12

= 144.

= (69x85/3x100) + 10.7

= 30.25.

The given number series 2676, 445, ?, 21,6, 2, 1 follows a pattern that,

From right side,

1

1 x 1 + 1 = 2

2 x 2 + 2 = 6

6 x 3 + 3 = 21

21 x 4 + 4 = 88

88 x 5 + 5 = 445

445 x 6 + 6 = 2676

Hence the missing number in the given number series is 88.

3, 7, 6, 5, 9, 3, 12, 1, 15, ... has two different series

1) 3, 6, 9, 12, 15.....

2) 7, 5, 3, 1, .....

-1 is the next number.

Lethargic means "sluggish", kind of inactive

Vital means full of energy, lively

So, they are antonyms.

So, for the 2nd part of the analogy, you are looking for a antonym to trite

Trite means lacking originality or freshness. Overused. Kind of like a cliche

So, an antonym could be original, unique, innovative.

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.

Given series is 372, 823, 644, 582, 46?, 8?7

Here the series follow the rule that :
372 = 3+7+2 = 12
823 = 8+2+3 = 13
644 = 6+4+4 = 14
582 = 5+8+2 = 15
46? = 4+6+? = 16 => ? = 6
8?7 = 8+?+7 = 17 => ? = 2

So the missing numbers are 6 and 2
