Answer: D) 420 Explanation: The given number series 410, 409, 413, 404, ? , follows a pattern that  410 410 - 13 = 409409 + 22 = 413413 - 33 = 404404 + 42 = 420   Hence, the next number in the given series is 420.

Answer: C) 90 Explanation: The given number series follows a pattern that, 56 56 + 8 = 64 64 - 16 = 48 48 + 32 = 80 (Not equal to 90) 80 - 64 = 16 16 + 128 = 144    Hence, the odd number in the given number series is 90.

Answer: D) 135 Explanation: The given number series is 6, 6, 9, 18, 45, ? Here the series follows a pattern that, 6  6 x 1 = 6 6 x 1.5 = 9 9 x 2 = 18 18 x 2.5 = 45 45 x 3 = 135   Hence, the next number in the given number series is 135.

Answer: B) Karl Marx Explanation: Das Kapital, one of the major works of the 19th-century. Economist and philosopher Karl Marx (1818–83), wrote, in which he expounded his theory of the capitalist system, its dynamism, and its tendencies toward self-destruction.

Answer: C) 289 Explanation: Here the given number series is 270, 261, 279, 252, 289, 243 270 - 9 = 261 261 + 18 = 279 279 - 27 = 252 252 + 36 = 288 (not equals to 289) 288 - 45 = 243   Hence, the odd number in the given number series is 289.

Answer: C) 450 Explanation: Given Series is 5, 14, 42, 107, 233, _? 5, 14, 42, 107, 233, _? Differences is 9, 28, 65, 126 9 = 2^3 + 1 28 = 3^3 + 1 65 = 4^3 + 1 126 = 5^3 + 1 Now, next difference must be 6^3 + 1 = 217 Hence, next number in the given series = 233 + 217 = 450.

Answer: A) 278.5 Explanation: The given number series is 35, 36, 55, 111, ? 35 35 x 1 + 1 = 36 36 x 1.5 + 1 = 55 55 x 2 + 1 = 111 111 x 2.5 + 1 = 278.5   Hence, the next number in the given number series is 278.5.

Answer: A) 167 Explanation: The given number series is 3, 5, 13, 43, 167 3 3 x 1 + 2 = 5 5 x 2 + 3 = 13 13 x 3 + 4 = 43 43 x 4 + 5 = 177 (not equal to 167)   Hence, the odd number in the given number sequence is 167.
