The given number series is 125,   138,   164,   ?,   255

125

125 + 13x1 = 138

138 + 13x2 = 164

164 + 13x3 = 203

203 + 13x4 = 255

Hence, the missing number in the series is 203.

If we consider the given numbers  6, 4, 9, 10, 11 to be the month number then we can easily find the killer.

6 – June – J

4 – April – A

9 – September – S

10 – October – O

11 – November – N

Hence the answer is JOEL.

Here the given number series is 6, 3, 3, 4.5, 10

The odd one in the given series is 10

The pattern it follows is

6

6 x 0.5 = 3

3 x  1  = 3

3 x 1.5 = 4.5

4.5 x 2 = 9

Hence, the odd number is 10.

16th July, 1776 = (1775 years + Period from 1st Jan, 1776 to 16th July, 1776)

Counting of odd days :

1600 years have 0 odd day.

100 years have 5 odd days.

75 years = (18 leap years + 57 ordinary years) =  [(18 x 2) + (57 x 1)] = 93 (13 weeks + 2 days) = 2 odd days

1775 years have (0 + 5 + 2) odd days = 7 odd days = 0 odd day. 

Jan   Feb   Mar   Apr   May   Jun   Jul  

31 + 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 16 = 198 days= (28 weeks + 2 days) 

Total number of odd days = (0 + 2) = 2.  

Required day was 'Tuesday'.
