The given letter equation implies that 11 P in a CT means 11 Players in a Cricket Team.

The given number series is 3  24  186  1008  5040  20160

Here  the given series follows a pattern that,

3

3 x 8 = 24

24 x 7 = 168 not 186

168 x 6 = 1008

1008 x 5 =  5040

5040 x 4 = 20160

Hence the Odd One in the number series is 186.

The given number series follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 19 + 12 = 20 (not 21) \\ 20 + 22 = 24 \\ 24 + 32 = 33 \\ 33 + 42 = 49 \\ 49 + 52 = 74 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the odd number in the given number series is 21.

Let us assume the two persons who can speak two languages speak Hindi and Tamil. The third person then speaks all the three languages.

Tamil – Number of persons who can speak is 6. Only Tamil 6 – 2 – 1 = 3

Hindi - Number of persons who can speak is 15. Only Hindi 15 – 2 – 1 12

Gujarati – Number of persons who can speak is 6. Only Gujarati 6 – 1 = 5

Thus the number of persons who can speak only one language is 3 + 12 + 5 = 20

Number of persons who can speak two languages = 2

Number of person who an speak all the languages = 1

Total number of persons = 23.

The given number series 22, 26, 42, 78, 142, 244 follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 22 \\ 22 + 22 = 22 + 4 = 26 \\ 26 + 42 = 26 + 16 = 42 \\ 42 + 62 = 42 + 36 = 78 \\ 78 + 82 = 78 + 64 = 142 \\ 142 + 102 = 142 + 100 = 242 \end{gathered}$$ 

Hence, the odd one in the given number series is 244.

SP of first article = Rs.1000

Profit = 20%

 CP = SP x 100100+P% = Rs. 25003

SP of Second Article = Rs.1000

 Loss = 20%

 CP = SP x 100100-L% = Rs. 1250

So, Total SP = Rs.2000; Total CP = Rs.6250/3

As the CP is more than SP, he makes a loss.

Loss = CP - SP = (6250/3) - 2000 = Rs.(250/3)

So, Loss Percent = Lossx100/CP = 4%

The given number series is 5, 8, 40, 90, 664

5

5 - 1 x 2 = 8

8 - 3 x 4 = 20 (NOT 40)

20 - 5 x 6 = 90

90 - 7 x 8 = 664
