Q:

Simplify the following equation

[K-L2-K+L2]4K = a/b

A) K = b /a B) bL = -a
C) KL = 1 D) aK = -b
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) bL = -a

Explanation:

[(K-L)2-K+L2]4K = abK2+L2-2KL-K2+L2+2KL4K= ab

 

=> - 4KL/4K = a/b

 

=> L = - a/b

 

=> bL = -a

A) 79 B) 81
C) 75 D) 85
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 75

Here in the given series, it follows a pattern that

 

77 + 2 = 79

 

79  - 3 = 76

 

76 + 5 = 81

 

81 -  7 = 74

 

74 + 11 = 85

 

Consecutive adding and subtracting of prime numbers.

 

So the wrong number in the given series is 75.

Q:

What is the next number in the following number series

3, 5, 8, 15, 28, 51, ?

A) 98 B) 102
C) 87 D) 79
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 98

Explanation:

The given number series is 

3, 5, 8, 15, 28, 51, ?

Here the pattern it follows is

3

3 + 2 = 5 ( add prime number less than 3 i.e, 2)

5 + 3 = 8 (3 is prime number less than 5)

8 + 7 = 15 (7 is prime number less than 8)

15 + 13 = 28 (13 is prime number less than 15)

28 + 23 = 51 (23 is prime number less than 28)

51 + 47 = 98 (47 is prime number less than 51)

 

Hence, the next number in the given number series is 98.

4, 6, 12, 30, 81, 315.

A) 6 B) 12
C) 81 D) 315
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 81

Explanation:

Given the number series is 4, 6, 12, 30, 81, 315.

Here it follows a pattern that

4

4 x 1.5 = 6

6 x 2 = 12

12 x 2.5 = 30

30 x 3 = 90 not equals to 81

90 x 3.5 = 315

 

Hence the odd one in the series is 81.

Q:

Find the missing number in the given series ?

15, 51, 216, 1100, ?, 46452

A) 5660 B) 6560
C) 6750 D) 6630
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 6630

Explanation:

Let first no. be "k" and multiple be "l"...start value of y with 3
then,
[(k x y) + {l x (l-1)}]
Thus, we get

15 x 3 + 3 x 2 = 51
51 x 4 + 4 x 3 = 216
216 x 5 + 5 x 4 = 1100
1100 x 6 + 6 x 5 = 6630
6630 x 7 + 7 x 6 = 46452

Therefore, the missing number is 6630.
