    What comes next in the series? 4, 6, 10, 12, 16 _

    • 20

    • 18

    • 20

    • 13

    Correct Answer
    A. 18
    Explanation
    The pattern in the series is that every alternate number is obtained by adding 2 to the previous number, while the other numbers are obtained by adding 4 to the previous number. Starting with 4, we add 2 to get 6, then add 4 to get 10, then add 2 to get 12, then add 4 to get 16. Therefore, the next number in the series would be obtained by adding 2 to 16, resulting in 18.

    Correct Answer
    A. 6
    Explanation
    The missing number in the series can be found by observing the pattern. The first number is 3, and then each subsequent number is obtained by adding 3 to the previous number. Therefore, the missing number should be 6, as it is obtained by adding 3 to 3.

    Three digits describe me.  My third digit is four times smaller than my second.  The difference between my first and second digits is three.  Who am I?

    • 143

    • 111

    Correct Answer
    A. 141
    Explanation
    In this question, the number is described as having three digits. The third digit is four times smaller than the second digit, which means it is one-fourth of the second digit. The difference between the first and second digits is three. Among the given options, only 141 satisfies these conditions. The first digit is 1, the second digit is 4, and the third digit is 1/4 of 4, which is 1. Therefore, the correct answer is 141.

    Explanation
    The hundreds digit is 1 because it is eight less than the tens digit. The tens digit is 9 because it is eight more than the ones digit. The ones digit is 3 because the difference between the ones and tens digits is six. Therefore, the correct answer is 193.

    How long is an hour on Mars if a day is equivalent to two weeks on Earth? (Approx value)

    • 16 Earth Hours

    • 15 Earth Hours

    • 20 Earth Hours

    • 14 Earth hours

    Correct Answer
    A. 14 Earth hours
    Explanation
    On Mars, a day is equivalent to two weeks on Earth. Therefore, if we divide 24 hours (a day on Earth) by 2, we get 12 hours. This means that a day on Mars is 12 hours long. Since the question asks for the length of an hour on Mars, we divide 12 hours (a Martian day) by 24 (an Earth day) to get 0.5. Therefore, an hour on Mars is 0.5 Earth hours. However, none of the given options match this calculation, so the correct answer is not available.
