3 + 1 x 11 = 3 + 11 = 14

14 + 2 x 11 = 14 + 22 = 36

36 + 3 x 11 = 36 + 33 = 69

69 + 4 x 11 = 69 + 44 = 113

113 + 5 x 11 = 113 + 55 = 168

A) Monday B) Tuesday
C) Wednesday D) Friday
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Wednesday

Explanation:

17th June, 1998 = (1997 years + Period from 1.1.1998 to 17.6.1998)
Odd days in 1600 years = 0
Odd days in 300 years = 1

(31 + 28 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 17) = 168 days
168 days = 24 weeks = 0 odd day.
Total number of odd days = (0 + 1 + 2 + 0) = 3.
Given day is Wednesday.

What should come in place of question mark (?) in the following number series?

38, 195, ?, 4905, 24530, 122655

A) 980 B) 885
C) 824 D) 1021
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 980

Explanation:

The given series follows the pattern that,

 

×5+5,   ×5+5,   ×5+5,   ×5+5,   ×5+5

 

38 x 5 + 5  = 195

 

195 x 5 + 5 = 980

 

980 x 5 + 5 = 4905

 

4905 x 5 + 5 = 24530

 

24530 x 5 + 5 = 122655

 

So the missing number is 980 .
