Q: Pick the odd man out of the folowing number sequence? 123 112 133 112 143
Solution: Here the given series is 123 112 133 112 143 It follows a pattern that, 123 123 - 11 = 112 112 + 21 = 133 133 - 31 = 102 (not 122) 102 + 41 = 143 Hence, the odd man in the given number sequence is 122 instead of 102.
Q: Find the next number in the given number series? 2, 19, 0, 21, –2, ?
Solution: The given number series 2, 19, 0, 21, –2, ? follows a pattern, 2 2 + 17 = 19 19 - 19 = 0 0 + 21 = 21 21 - 23 = -2 -2 + 25 = 23 Hence, the next number in the series is 23.
Q: 6, 3, 3, 6, 24, ? Find the next number in the given number series?
Solution: Given 6 3 3 6 24 ? Here 6 6 x 0.5 = 3 3 x 1 = 3 3 x 2 = 6 6 x 4 = 24 24 x 8 = 192 The next number in the given series is 192.
Q: Vincent has a paper route. Each morning, he delivers 37 newspapers to customers in his neighborhood. It takes Vincent 50 minutes to deliver all the papers. If Vincent is sick or has other plans, his friend Thomas, who lives on the same street, will sometimes deliver the papers for him.

Q: A child is looking for his father. He went 90 metres in the east before turning to his right. He went 20 metres before turning to his right again to look for his father at his uncle’s place 30 metres from this point. His father was not there. From there, he went 100 metres to his north before meeting his father in a street. How far did the son meet his father from the starting point?
Solution: Clearly, the child moves from A 90 m east-wards up to B, then turns right and moves 20 m up to C, then turns right and moves 30 m up to D. Finally , he turns right and moves 100 m up to E. Clearly, AB = 90m , BF = CD = 30 m SO, AF = AB – BF = 60 m. Also, DE = 100 m, DF = BC = 20 m So, EF = DE – DF = 80 m.
Q: A man is facing west. He turns 45° in the clockwise direction and then another 180° in the same direction and then 270° in the anti-clockwise direction. Which direction is he facing now?
Solution: Total movement in Clockwise direction = 45 + 180 = 225 degrees Total movement in Anti-clockwise direction = 270 degrees The difference = 270 - 225 = 45 degrees (towards anti-clock wise because the total degrees in anti-clockwise is more than that of clockwise direction) So, 45 degrees in anti-clockwise direction from the West will be: South-West.
