Which number should come next in the series? 1,4,9,16,25
Correct Answer
C. 36
Explanation
The series is formed by squaring consecutive numbers. The first number 1 is squared to get 1, the second number 2 is squared to get 4, the third number 3 is squared to get 9, and so on. Therefore, the next number in the series should be the square of the next consecutive number, which is 6. The square of 6 is 36.

A rancher is building an open-ended (straight) fence by stringing wire between posts 25 metres apart. If the fence is 100 metres long how many posts should the rancher use?
Correct Answer
D. 5
Explanation
To build an open-ended fence with wire between posts that are 25 meters apart, the rancher needs to determine how many posts are needed for a 100-meter long fence. Since the posts are 25 meters apart, dividing the total length of the fence (100 meters) by the distance between each post (25 meters) will give the number of posts needed. 100/25 = 4. However, since the fence is open-ended, an additional post is required at the end, making the total number of posts needed 4+1=5.

Correct Answer
C. 15
Explanation
The series alternates between adding 6 and subtracting 3. Starting with 3, we add 6 to get 9, subtract 3 to get 6, add 6 to get 12, and so on. Therefore, the next number in the series would be obtained by subtracting 3 from 15, resulting in 12.

If two typists can type two pages in five minutes, how many typists will it take to type twenty pages in ten minutes?
Correct Answer
B. 10
