Here the given series is 128, 32, 14, 2.66, 0.88

128 / 4 = 32

32 / 3 = 10.666

10.666 / 4 = 2.666

2.666 / 3 = 0.888

Hence, the odd man in the given number series is 14.

Let sum=Rs.x

C.I. when compounded half yearly = x1+101004-x=464110000

C.I. when compounded annually =x201002-x=1125

 464110000x-1125x=482

=> x=20000

In each term second two numbers are multiples of the first number. But in 4-15-24 15 is not multiple of 4.

The given number series is 

71      88       113       150       203          277

   +17    +25       +37      +53        +74

        +8      +12        +16       +21

            +4          +4         +5

The series should be  71  88  112   150    203   276 i.e, the differences of the difference should be +4.

Hence, the odd man in the given series is 277.

The given series is 6, 6, 12, 36, 144, 720, ?

6

6 x 1 = 6

6 x 2 = 12

12 x 3 = 36

36 x 4 = 144

144 x 5 = 720

720 x 6 = 4320

Hence, the next number in the given number series is 4320.

$$\begin{gathered} 2 = 12 + 1 \\ 3 = 22 - 1 \\ 10 = 32 + 1 \\ Now 102 - 1 = 99 \\ 9802 = 992 + 1 \end{gathered}$$

When the hands of the clock are in the same straight line but not together, they are 30 minute spaces apart.
At 7 o'clock, they are 25 min. spaces apart.
Minute hand will have to gain only 5 min. spaces.
55 min. spaces are gained in 60 min.

5 min spaces are gained in 6055*5 min  = 5511min 

so, Required time = 5511 min  past 7
