The given names will be arranged in the alphabetical order as : Mahender, Mahendra, Mahinder, Mahindra, Mohinder. Clearly, 'Mohinder' comes last.

With close observation, you will note that each number in the list is in the middle of two prime numbers. Thus:

4 is in the middle of 3 and 5, 6 is in the middle of 5 and 7, 12 is in the middle of 11 and 13, 18 is in the middle of 17 and 19, 30 is in the middle of 29 and 31. 42 is in the middle of 41 and 43, 60 is in the middle of 59 and 61.

Therefore, the next number would be the one that is in the middle of the next two prime numbers, which is 72 (which is in the middle of 71 and 73).

55.55 + 155 + 15.55 + 0.5 + 0.05 = ?

 55.55

155.00

 15.55

   0.5

   0.05

_______

226.65

_______

Hence, the value of the given equation 55.55 + 155 + 15.55 + 0.5 + 0.05 = 226.65.

Given series follows Cubes on Prime Numbers 

i.e 23, 33, 53,...but  93is 1331

so 1381 is wrong

Here the series follow the rule that

12+22 = 5

32+42 = 25

52+62 = 61

72+82 = 113

SO NEXT IS, 92+102 = 181
