Answer: Option B. -> 65
The given series is a triangular pattern series.So, we have
Series I : 2 9 28 ? 126 217 344
Series II : 7 19 ? ? 91 127
Series III : 12 ? ? ? 36
Clearly, to form a pattern, the missing terms in Series III must be 18, 24, 30So, missing term = 127 + (61 + 24 + 6)= 127 + 91= 218

Answer: Option C. -> 29
The pattern is +2,+4,+2,+4,
So, missing term = 25 + 4 = 29
The pattern is +2,+4,+2,+4,
So, missing term = 25 + 4 = 29
Answer: Option A. -> 14
The pattern is +3, +4, +5, +6,........So, missing term=9+5=14
The pattern is +3, +4, +5, +6,........So, missing term=9+5=14
Answer: Option D. -> 3508
The pattern is x3+4, x4+4, x5+4,...............So, missing term=584x6+4=3508
The pattern is x3+4, x4+4, x5+4,...............So, missing term=584x6+4=3508
Answer: Option C. -> 203
The pattern is x2+1,x2-1,x2+1,x2-1.x...................So, missing term =101x2+1=203
The pattern is x2+1,x2-1,x2+1,x2-1.x...................So, missing term =101x2+1=203
Answer: Option A. -> 33
The pattern is +6, +9, +12, +15...............So, missing term=21+12=33
The pattern is +6, +9, +12, +15...............So, missing term=21+12=33
Answer: Option A. -> 18
The given sequence is a combination of two series:I. 0, 3, 8, 15, 24, 35 and II. 2, 5, 10, 18, 26The pattern in both I and II is + 3, + 5, + 7, + 9, .........So, in II. 18 is wrong and must be replaced by (10 + 7) i.e., 17.

Answer: Option D. -> 5000
Each term of the series is the product of the preceding two terms.So, 5000 is wrong and must be replaced by (50 × 500) = i.e., 25000
Each term of the series is the product of the preceding two terms.So, 5000 is wrong and must be replaced by (50 × 500) = i.e., 25000
Answer: Option C. -> 10
The correct sequence is 3, 32 , 33,4, 42 , 43,5, 52 , 53So. 10 is wrong and must replaced by 32 i.e., 9
The correct sequence is 3, 32 , 33,4, 42 , 43,5, 52 , 53So. 10 is wrong and must replaced by 32 i.e., 9
Answer: Option A. -> 27
We have :I: 5 27 61 122 213 340 509II: 22 34 61 91 127 169III: 12 27 30 36 42IV:
15 3 6  
; 6
Clearly, the given series becomes a triangular pattern series if each term in IV: is 6.
Again, in II: 34 must be replaced by (61 - 24) i.e., 37 and 22 by (37 - 18) i.e., 19.
Thus, in the given series, 27 is wrong and must be replaced by (5 + 19) i.e., 24.
