Given number series is 61, 66, 83, 121, 185

Here the given series follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 61 \\ 61 + 22 + 1 = 66 \\ 66 + 42 + 1 = 83 \\ 83 + 62 + 1 = 120 (not 121) \\ 120 + 82 + 1 = 185 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the odd man in the given series is 121.

If the word started with the letter A then the remaining 5 positions can be filled in  5! Ways.

If it started with c then the remaining 5 positions can be filled in 5! Ways.Similarly if it started with H,I,N the remaining 5 positions can be filled in 5! Ways.

If it started with S then the remaining position can be filled with A,C,H,I,N in alphabetical order as on dictionary.

The required word SACHIN can be obtained after the 5X5!=600 Ways i.e. SACHIN is the 601th letter.

There are 12 people, so this is our n value.

So, 12C21= 66

Let the cost of a table and that of a chair be Rs. x and Rs, y respectively.

Then, 2x + 3y = 3500 ...(i)

and 3x + 2y = 4000 .....(ii)

solving (i) and (ii) we get x = 1000, y = 500
