Pattern is

• 3

• 3 x 3.5 = 10.5

• 10.5 x 3.5 = 36.75

• 36.75 x 3.5 = 128.625

• 128.625 x 3.5 = 450.187

The given series 24.3, 23.1, 20.7, 17.1, 12.4 follows a pattern that

24.3

24.3 - 1.2 = 23.1

23.1 - 2.4 = 20.7

20.7 - 3.6 = 17.1

17.1 - 4.8 = 12.3 not 12.4

Hence, the odd man or odd number in the given series is 12.4

The given number series is 14, 27, 105, 525, 4993

14

14 x 2 - 1 = 27

27 x 4 - 3 = 105

105 x 6 - 5 = 625 (not 525)

625 x 8 - 7 = 4993

Hence, the odd man or number in the given number series is 525.

The given number series 100, 101, 97, 105, 90

100

100 + 1^2 = 101

101 - 2^2 = 97

97 + 3^2 = 106 ( not 105)

106 - 4^2 = 90

Hence, the odd man in the given series is 105.

The given number series 8, 18, 56, 232, 1165 

8

8 x 2 + 2 = 18

18 x 3 + 3 = 57 (not 56)

57 x 4 + 4 = 232

232 x 5 + 5 = 1165

Hence, the odd man in the given series is 56.

Given number sequence is 28, 16, 28, 76, 274

Here the sequence follows a pattern that

28

28 x 0.5 + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16

16 x 1.5 + 4 = 24 + 4 = 28

28 x 2.5 + 6 = 70 + 6 = 76

76 x 3.5 + 8 = 266 + 8 = 274

274 x 4.5 + 10 = 1233 + 10 = 1243

Hence, the next number in the given number sequence is 1243.

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.
