Verbal Reasoning - Mental Ability Questions

6-3 = 3 9-4 = 5 (3x5=15) 15=O
7-2 = 5 7-3 = 4 (5x4=20) 20=T
9-6 = 3 5-1 = 4 (3x4=12) 12=L

Similarly, 4-1 = 3 8-5 = 1 (3x1=3) 3=C

Here the given number series 625, 625, 600, ?, 475, 875 follows a pattern that

625

625 + (0 x 0) = 625

625 - (5 x 5) = 625 - 25 = 600

600 + (10 x 10) = 600 + 100 = 700

700 - (15 x 15) = 700 - 225 = 475

475 + (20 x 20) = 475 + 400 = 875

Hence, the missing number in the given number series is 700.

Given Number:     4  2  1  5  7  9  3  6  8

Ascending order:  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

Hence the required pairs are  12, 49, 16

When the second alphabets in each of the words are changed to the next alphabet in the English alphabetical order, we have

AOD    FPR    TIE    BJG    SVM

Clearly, there two words having  two vowels. These words are AOD and TIE

 The alphabets are coded as shown :

$$\begin{gathered} R O S E C H A I P \\ 6 8 2 1 7 3 4 5 9 \end{gathered}$$

So, in SEARCH,

S ia coded as 2,
E as 1,
A as 4,
R as 6,
C as 7,
H as 3.
Thus, the code for SEARCH is 214673

The given series follows a pattern that,

19 x 19 x 19 = 6859

18 x 18 x 18 = 5832

17 x 17 x 17 = 4913

16 x 16 x 16 = 4096

15 x 15 x 15 = 3375

So, the missing number in the given series = 4913
