Here the series of the form is x2 - 1, x2 - 2, x2 - 3,...

 53 x 2 - 4 = 106 - 4 = 102

The given number series is 120, 36, 6, 2, 1, 1

120

120/5 = 24 (not 36)

24/4 = 6

6/3 = 2

2/2 = 1

1/1 = 1

Hence, the odd man in the given number series is 24.

Modern is used to refer to something new whereas antiquated is used with respect to something old.

In other words, both terms are the opposite of each other.

From the above analysis, the missing word should be a word that represents the opposite of weak. Strong is used to with great influence. Therefore, the apt word is strong or any synonym of strong like potent, powerful, keen,...

Hence, Modern : Antiquated :: Weak : Strong.

Given number series is 61, 66, 83, 121, 185

Here the given series follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 61 \\ 61 + 22 + 1 = 66 \\ 66 + 42 + 1 = 83 \\ 83 + 62 + 1 = 120 (not 121) \\ 120 + 82 + 1 = 185 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the odd man in the given series is 121.

Lets say shyam sells at 100,

Since Ram sells 25% cheaper than Shyam,

Therefor Ram sells at less than 25% of100 or 75 rs.

Ram sells 25% dearer than Bram or 125% of Ram =100% of Bram or

125% of x (say x price of bram )=75rs.
or 100% of x =60rs.
hence price of bram is 60rs.

now Bram's good is cheaper than Shyam's as (100-60)x100/100% or 40%.

Hence Brams Good is 40% cheaper than that of Shyam's good.

The given number series is 8, 16, 20, 36, 68

8

8 x 2 - 4 = 12 (NOT 16)

12 x 2 - 4 = 20

20 x 2 - 4 = 36

36 x 2 - 4 = 68

Hence, the odd man in the given series is 16.

From the given information, the sitting arrangement can be

 P-Q-W-S-U-V-T-R  i.e. in circular as

From the above figure it is clear that opposite to U is P.

Here Thread and String are Synonyms of each other. Then the answer will be the synonym of Cask. 

• Cask is nothing but a large barrel-like container used for storing liquids, typically alcoholic drinks. 

Ex : Drum, Vessel, Tank, Barrel, Hogshead, Firkin,...

• Here from the options Barrel is the only synonym of Cask.

Thus,  Thread : String :: Cask : Barrel
