Aptitude Odd Man Out and Series Test Paper 2


6) Find out the wrong number in the series:
125, 106, 88, 76, 65, 58, 53

  1. 125
  2. 106
  3. 88
  4. 76
  5. 65

Answer: C

Explanation:

To get the next number in the given series go on subtracting prime numbers 19, 17, 13, 11, 7, and 5 from the numbers.
Like: 125 - 19 = 106
106 - 17 = 89
89 - 13 = 76
76 - 11 = 65
65 - 7 = 58
58 - 5 = 53

So, the wrong number in the series is 88.


7) What should come in place of the question mark (?) in the following number series:
4, 5, 14, 51, ?

  1. 220
  2. 162
  3. 280
  4. 216

Answer: A

Explanation:

The sequence in the given series is

x 1 + 12 = 4 x 1 + 12 = 4+1 = 5,
x 2 + 22 = 5 x 2 + 22 = 10+4 = 14,
x 3 +32 = 14 x 3 + 32 = 42 + 9 = 51,
x 4 + 42 = 51 x 4 + 42 = 204 + 16 = 220

Therefore, the missing number is 220.


8) Find out the wrong number in the series:
455, 445, 465, 435, 485, 415,515,455

  1. 455
  2. 465
  3. 485
  4. 415

Answer: A

Explanation:

The given series is made of two different series:

First: 455, 465, 485, 515, and

Second: 445, 435, 415,455

The sequence in first series is + 10, + 20, + 30, and the sequence in second series: -10, -20. So, the number 455 is wrong as it should be 415 - 30 = 385

  1. 289
  2. 41
  3. 17393
  4. 1448

Answer: A

Explanation:

The given sequence is

X * 8 + 1 i.e., 2 * 8 +1 = 16 + 1 = 17
X * 7 + 2 i.e., 17 * 7 + 2 = 119 + 2 = 121
X * 6 + 3 i.e., 121 * 6 + 3 = 726 + 3 = 729...

Therefore:

(a) = 5 X 8 + 1 = 41.
(b) = 41 X 7 + 2 = 289.
