Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : 58

Number Series Question 5 Detailed Solution

Given:

Series given is: 3, 13, 31, 58, 91, 111, 

Solution:

The pattern followed here is: x2 + (x + 1)

3 = 12 + (1 + 1) = 3

13 = 32 + (3 + 1) = 13

31 = 52 + (5 + 1) = 31

58 = 72 + (7 + 1) = 49 + 8 = 57  58, is wrong.

91 = 92 + (9 + 1) = 91

111 = 112 + (11 + 1) = 133

So, "57" is the wrong one in this series.

Hence the correct answer is "57".

 Alternate Method

The pattern followed here is: x2 - (x - 1)

3 = 22 - (2 - 1) = 4 -1 = 3

13 = 42 - (4 - 1) = 16 - 3 = 13

31 = 62 - (6 - 1) = 36 - 5 = 31

58 = 82 - (8 - 1) = 64 - 7 = 57 ≠ 58, is wrong.

91 = 102 - (10 - 1) = 100 - 9 = 91

111 = 122 - (12 - 1) = 144 - 11 = 133
Hence the correct answer is "57".

Download Solution PDF

The pattern followed here is:

(Previous number × 3) + (previous number – 2) = next number

Given: 5, 18, 70, 278, ?

1st number → 5

2nd number → (5 × 3) + (5 - 2) = 15 + 3 = 18

3rd number → (18 × 3) + (18 - 2) = 54 + 16 = 70

4th number → (70 × 3) + (70 - 2) = 210 + 68 = 278

5th number (278 × 3) + (278 - 2) = 834 + 276 = 1110

Hence, ''1110" is the correct answer.

Alternate MethodThe logic followed here is:

The Previous number × 4 - 2 = next number.

5, 18, 70, 278, ?

5 × 4 - 2 = 18

18 × 4 - 2 = 70

70 × 4 - 2 = 278

278 × 4 - 2 = 1110

Hence, the correct answer is "1110".
