We know that,

Odd days --> days more than complete weeks

Number of odd days in 400/800/1200/1600/2000 years are 0.

Hence, the number of odd days in first 1600 years are 0.

Number of odd days in 300 years = 1

Number of odd days in 49 years = (12 x 2 + 37 x 1) = 61 days = 5 odd days

Total number of odd days in 1949 years = 1 + 5 = 6 odd days

Now look at the year 1950

Jan 26 = 26 days = 3 weeks + 5 days = 5 odd days

Total number of odd days = 6 + 5 = 11 => 4 odd days

Odd days :-

0 = sunday ;

1 = monday ;

2 = tuesday ;

3 = wednesday ;

4 = thursday ;

5 = friday ;

6 = saturday

Therefore, Jan 26th 1950 was Thursday.

There should be 90 instead of 80
so we can have a series
5, 5x3, 15x2, 30x3, 90x2, 180x3, 540x2 and 1080x3 and so on...

Here the given series follows a pattern that, multiplying the number with odd numbers in decreasing order starting with 13. That is,

6 × 13 = 78

65 × 11 = 858

858 × 9 = 7722

7722 × 7 = 54054

54054 × 5 = 270270

Hence, the wrong number is 54055

Here the given words represent synonyms.

Exhibit and Display are synonyms for each other. Similarly, Send and Emit are synonyms for each other.

Hence, Exhibit : display :: send : Emit.

1 x 1 + 1 x 1 = (1 + 1) = 2

2 x 2 + 2 x 2 = (4 + 4) = 8

8 x 3 + 3 x 3 = (24 + 9) = 33

33 x 4 + 4 x 4 = (132 + 16) = 148

148 x 5 + 5 x 5 = (740 + 25) = 765.

534.596 + 61.472 – 496.708 = ? + 27.271

596.068 – 496.708 = ? + 27.271

? = 99.36 – 27.271

? = 72.089.

The given series 24.3, 23.1, 20.7, 17.1, 12.4 follows a pattern that

24.3

24.3 - 1.2 = 23.1

23.1 - 2.4 = 20.7

20.7 - 3.6 = 17.1

17.1 - 4.8 = 12.3 not 12.4

Hence, the odd man or odd number in the given series is 12.4

The given number series follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 19 + 12 = 20 (not 21) \\ 20 + 22 = 24 \\ 24 + 32 = 33 \\ 33 + 42 = 49 \\ 49 + 52 = 74 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the odd number in the given number series is 21.
