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 the cost price of 1-liter pure milk be Re.1, then 

 6 liters (milk) → C.P = Rs. 62 liters (water) → C.P = Rs. 0→CP = Rs.6 only

8 litre mixture  =>

SP =>  8 x 2 = Rs. 16

Profit % = 16 - 66x100 = 10006 = 166.66%

The given number series 2676, 445, ?, 21,6, 2, 1 follows a pattern that,

From right side,

1

1 x 1 + 1 = 2

2 x 2 + 2 = 6

6 x 3 + 3 = 21

21 x 4 + 4 = 88

88 x 5 + 5 = 445

445 x 6 + 6 = 2676

Hence the missing number in the given number series is 88.

The series follows a pattern that,

-9², +8², -7², +6², -5²

The given series is 12, 48, 168, 502, 1260

12

12 x 4 = 48

48 x 3.5 = 168

168 x 3 = 504

504 x 2.5 = 1260

Hence, the odd man out in the given series is 502.

The given number series 11, 13, 30, 96, ? follows a pattern that,

11

11 x 1 + 2 = 13

13 x 2 + 4 = 30

30 x 3 + 6 = 96

96 x 4 + 8 = 392

Hence, the next number in the given series is 392.

The given number series follows a pattern that, 4, 15, 37, 81, ?

4

4 + 11 = 15

15 + 22 = 37

37 + 44 = 81

81 + 88 = 169

Hence, the next number in the sequence is 169.
