The given number series follows a pattern that

196, 169, 144, 121, 100, 81, ?

    -27  -25   -23   -21  -19  -17

=> 81 - 17 = 64

Therefore, the series is 196, 169, 144, 121, 100, 81, 64.

Given series is 

12        16         32          68         ?

Here it follows a pattern that,

12

12 + (2x2) = 16

16 + (4x4) = 32

32 + (6x6) = 68

68 + (8x8) = 132

The given number series is 180, 90, 60, 40, 36

It follows a pattern that,

180 x 1/2 = 90

90 x 2/3  = 60

60 x 3/4  = 45 (NOT 40)

45 x 4/5  = 36

Hence, the wrong number in the given series is 40.

the next 2 number in series we need to divide the series into 2 different series

First series : 4 , 6, 12, 30 ??

Second Series : 12,18,26, ??

So we need to see for the pattern for those series in order to find the next two number , we can do this by finding the difference or division , multiplication logic whatever may apply :

• Pattern of Series 1 :

6 divide 4 : 1.5

Next number i.e 12 divided by 6=2

Next number i.e 30 divided by 12 =2.5

So series is going in multiples of 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3 , so on

So first series will look like

4 , 6, 12, 30, 30x3 =90

• Pattern of Series 2 : 12,18,26, ??

Its simple Adding numbers with iterative logic (i.e 6, 8, then followed by 10, 12)

Series will be like 12,18,26,36.

For the next two numbers : Series will be like 4, 12, 6, 18, 12, 26, 30, 36, 90

The diameter is equal to the shortest side of the rectangle.

 So radius= 14/2 = 7cm. 

Therefore,  area of circle =πr2=227×49=154cm2

Given number series is 9 17 11 19 13 

Here the pattern is

• 9

• 9 + 8 = 17

• 17 - 6 = 11

• 11 + 8 = 19

• 19 - 6 = 13

• 13 + 8 = 21

• 21 - 6 = 15

• 15 + 8 = 23

Here the series follows,

194

194 - (1x1 - 1) = 194

194 - (2x2 - 1) = 191

191 - (3x3 - 1) = 183

183 - (4x4 - 1) = 168

168 - (5x5 - 1) = 144
