Clearly, alternatively we add and subtract 10% of a term to obtain the next term of the series.
Thus, 10000 + (10% of 10000)= 11000;
11000 - (10% of 11000) = 9900;
 9900 + (10% of 9900)  = 10890;
10890 - (10% of 10890) = 9801.
 9801 + (10% of 9801)  = 9801+980 = 10781.
So, missing term = 10890- (10% of 10890)= 9801.

The series follows the following pattern.

4

16 = 42

37 = 12+62

58 = 32+72

81 ≠52+82.

Here every number is based on the digits of previous number. Hence, 81 is the wrong number in the given series.

Let distance = x km.
Time taken at 3 kmph : dist/speed = x/3 = 20 min late.
time taken at 4 kmph : x/4 = 30 min earlier
difference between time taken : 30-(-20) = 50 mins = 50/60 hours.
x/3- x/4 = 50/60
x/12 = 5/6
x = 10 km.

Here the given series 1, 6,  ?, 15, 45, 66, 91 follows a

Pattern in the series is, +5, +9, +13,...,.. +21, +25

So +4 is getting increased at every term addition.

Missing Number in the series will be 15+(9+4) = 15 + 13 = 28.

Given Transition is to Change, and we know that Transition and change are Synonyms. Similarly, Immobility means not moving and synonym of immobility are motionlessness, stillness,...

Hence, Transition is to change as immobility is to stillness.

We can get this by any of two explanations.

Answer 1: 41

7 = 3 + 4  = 34

Similarly, 5 = 4 + 1  = 41

Answer 2 :  41

7 - 3 = 4  => 34

Similarly, 5 - 4 = 1  => 41

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.

There should be 90 instead of 80
so we can have a series
5, 5x3, 15x2, 30x3, 90x2, 180x3, 540x2 and 1080x3 and so on...
