$$\begin{gathered} 13 x ? + 47 x 114 x 539 = 31100 x 2000 \\ ? = 378 x 3 \\ ? = 1134 \end{gathered}$$

Here the given number series is 3, 14, 36, 67, 113, 168

It follows a pattern that

3

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

Hence, the wrong number is 67.

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
97 years has 24 leap years + 73 ordinary years.
Number of odd days in 97 years ( 24 x 2 + 73) = 121 = 2 odd days.
Jan. Feb. March. April. May. June.
(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.

Epsom is a market town in Surrey, England, 22.0 km south-west of London.

Epsom Downs Racecourse holds The Derby, now a generic name for sports competitions in English-speaking countries. The town also gives its name to Epsom salts, extracted from mineral waters there.

Within the centuries-old boundaries is Epsom Downs Racecourse which features two of the five English Classic horse races; The Derby and The Oaks, which were first run in 1780 and 1779 respectively.

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 .

The process of dividing the disk into tracks and sectors is called as formatting.

Given Number series is :

3   4   14   48   576   27648

It follows a pattern that,

3

4

4 x 3 = 12   but not 14

12 x 4 = 48

48 x 12 = 576

576 x 48 = 27648

Hence, the odd one in the given Number Series is 14.

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.
