Verbal Reasoning - Mental Ability Questions

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 the given code, A = 2, B = 4, C = 6,.... , Z = 52.

So, ACT = 2 + 6 + 40 = 48 and

BAT = 4 + 2 + 40 = 46

The first digit is formed by adding the numbers which are the results of powers of 2 increased by one and second letter is the corresponding alphabet to that number...last number is the next number to the first one...therefore

15=7+8 (i.e. 2^3)

O is corresponding alphabet to 15

and 16 comes after 15 

Clearly, Here are the names of parts of a hand, Which may be arranged 

(i) from top to bottom, i.e, Shoulder, Elbow, Wrist, Palm, Finger - Which is 1, 3, 2, 4, 5  (or)

(ii) from bottom to top, i.e, Finger, Palm, Wrist, Elbow, Shoulder - Which is 5, 4, 2, 3, 1

Out of these, the sequence 5, 4, 2, 3, 1 is given in the alternatives provided. Hence, the answer is (D).

T is the brother of S, who is the daughter of R. So, T and S are the children of R. 

Now. Q is the brother of R. So, T and S are the cousins of Q.
