    Explanation
    The given series is a Fibonacci sequence, where each number is the sum of the two preceding numbers. Starting with 1 and 1, the next number is 2, followed by 3, 5, 8, and 13. Therefore, the next number in the series should be the sum of 8 and 13, which is 21.

    The correct answer is 15264. If we reverse the letters in the word "PEACH," we get "HCAEP." Similarly, if we reverse the numbers in "46251," we get "15264."

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Mary, who is sixteen years old, is four times as old as her brother. How old will Mary be when she is twice as old as her brother?

    • A.

      24

    • B.

      20

    • C.

      26

    • D.

      28

    • E.

      Never

    Correct Answer
    A. 24
    Explanation
    Mary is currently 16 years old and four times as old as her brother, who is 4 years old. To determine when Mary will be twice as old as her brother, we need to find the age gap between them. Currently, the age gap is 16 - 4 = 12 years. Since Mary is currently four times as old as her brother, the age gap will always be four times the brother's age. Therefore, when her brother is 8 years old, Mary will be 8 + 12 = 20 years old. However, this is not the answer. To find when Mary will be twice as old as her brother, we need to double the brother's age. When her brother is 8 x 2 = 16 years old, Mary will be 16 + 12 = 28 years old. Therefore, the correct answer is 28.

    Rate this question:

    • E.

    Correct Answer
    D. 8
    Explanation
    In the given series, all the numbers are obtained by adding 1 to the previous number and then multiplying it by 2, except for the number 8. Therefore, 8 does not belong in the series.

    Choose the number that is 1/4 of 1/2 of 1/5 of 200:

    • A.

      2

    • B.

      5

    • C.

      10

    • D.

      15

    • E.

      25

    Correct Answer
    B. 5
    Explanation
    To find 1/4 of 1/2 of 1/5 of 200, we need to multiply these fractions together. First, we find 1/5 of 200, which is 40. Then we find 1/2 of 40, which is 20. Finally, we find 1/4 of 20, which is 5. Therefore, the number that is 1/4 of 1/2 of 1/5 of 200 is 5.

      5

    • E.

      6

    Correct Answer
    D. 5
    Explanation
    John can carry 3 bottles of water in one trip. Since he needs 13 bottles, he will need to make 13/3 trips. This equals approximately 4.33 trips. However, John cannot make a fraction of a trip, so he will need to make 5 trips in total to the store to get all 13 bottles of water.
