- A.169
- B.225
- C.161
- D.121
Explanation
1, 25, ?, 361, 841, 1681 Similarly, 42 + 4 = 46 46 – 5 = 41 Similarly, 41 + 6 = 47 So, 47 – 7 = 40 412 = 1681292 = 841192 = 361112 = 12152 = 2512 = 15 – 1 = 411 – 5 = 619 – 11 = 829 – 19 = 1041 – 29 = 12412 = 1681292 = 841192 = 361112 = 12152 = 2512 = 15 – 1 = 411 – 5 = 619 – 11 = 829 – 19 = 1041 – 29 = 12 412 = 1681 292 = 841 192 = 361 112 = 121 52 = 25 12 = 1 5 – 1 = 4 11 – 5 = 6 19 – 11 = 8 29 – 19 = 10 41 – 29 = 12 412 = 1681 292 = 841 192 = 361 112 = 121 52 = 25 12 = 1 5 – 1 = 4 11 – 5 = 6 19 – 11 = 8 29 – 19 = 10 41 – 29 = 12 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 consecutive even number series. Hence, the missing number is 121.

General Intelligence and Reasoning
A series is given with one term missing. Select the correct alternative from the given ones that will complete the series. A7F, E15J, I23N, ?
- A.R13M
- B.M31R
- C.R23M
- D.R37S
Explanation
A7F, E15J, I23N, ? Add + 4 in the 1st letter and + 4 in the last letter of the given sets. Further, the Middle digit is the sum of the positional value of the first and last letter within each set. A + 4 = E, F + 4 = J, A (1) + F (6) = 7 E + 4 = I, J + 4 = N, E (5) + J (10) = 15 Now, I + 4 = M, N + 4 = R, 13 (M) + 18(R) = 31 Hence, M31R is the answer.
