Question 14: Which of the following pairs is the same as AZ, EV, GT and DW?
(a) UD
(b) WZ
(c) HS
(d) BW
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) HS

Explanation:
1. Each pair is made of opposite letters: A(1)-Z(26), E(5)-V(22), G(7)-T(20), D(4)-W(23); positions add to 27.
2. H(8) + S(19) = 27, so HS is a pair of opposite letters. UD = 25, WZ = 49, BW = 25.

Teacher's Note:
1. Opposite letters of the alphabet always have positions that add up to 27.
2. Add the positions of each option's letters and compare with 27.

Question 15: Find the number that completes the analogy.
35 : 24 = 63 : ______
(a) 38
(b) 50
(c) 48
(d) 80
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) 48

Explanation:
1. 35 = 62 - 1 and 24 = 52 - 1 (the square number goes one step down).
2. 63 = 82 - 1, so the answer is 72 - 1 = 48.

Teacher's Note:
1. In number analogies, test squares, cubes, sum of digits and product of digits of the first number.
2. Make sure the rule found from the first pair gives exactly the second number before using it.

(a) 36
(b) 64
(c) 49
(d) 65
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (d) 65

Explanation:
1. 8 = 32 - 1 and 28 = 33 + 1.
2. 15 = 42 - 1, so the answer is 43 + 1 = 64 + 1 = 65.

Teacher's Note:
1. In number analogies, test squares, cubes, sum of digits and product of digits of the first number.
2. Make sure the rule found from the first pair gives exactly the second number before using it.

(a) 64
(b) 62
(c) 71
(d) 69
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (d) 69

Explanation:
1. 45 = 36 + 9, where 9 = 3 + 6 is the sum of the digits of 36.
2. 57 + (5 + 7) = 57 + 12 = 69.

Teacher's Note:
1. In number analogies, test squares, cubes, sum of digits and product of digits of the first number.
2. Make sure the rule found from the first pair gives exactly the second number before using it.

28 : 44 = 35 : ______
(a) 53
(b) 50
(c) 54
(d) 48
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) 50

Explanation:
1. 44 = 28 + 16, where 16 = 2 × 8 is the product of the digits of 28.
2. 35 + (3 × 5) = 35 + 15 = 50.

Teacher's Note:
1. In number analogies, test squares, cubes, sum of digits and product of digits of the first number.
2. Make sure the rule found from the first pair gives exactly the second number before using it.

18 : 48 = 180 : ______
(a) 294
(b) 230
(c) 392
(d) 292
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) 294

Explanation:
1. 18 = 33 - 32 and 48 = 43 - 42.
2. 180 = 63 - 62, so the answer is 73 - 72 = 343 - 49 = 294.

Teacher's Note:
1. In number analogies, test squares, cubes, sum of digits and product of digits of the first number.
2. Make sure the rule found from the first pair gives exactly the second number before using it.

(a) 7
(b) 28
(c) 124
(d) 215
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) 28

Explanation:
1. The terms are n3 - 1: 23 - 1 = 7, 33 - 1 = 26, 43 - 1 = 63, ... , 83 - 1 = 511.
2. The second term should be 26, so 28 is wrong.

Teacher's Note:
1. Find the differences or ratios between neighbouring terms; one break in an otherwise neat pattern points to the wrong term.
2. After finding the rule, rebuild the whole series and check that only one term disagrees.

Answer: (c) 34

Explanation:
1. Differences should be 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 (the terms are n2 - 1).
2. 24 + 11 = 35, so 34 is wrong.

Teacher's Note:
1. Find the differences or ratios between neighbouring terms; one break in an otherwise neat pattern points to the wrong term.

(a) 194
(b) 98
(c) 14
(d) 48
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (d) 48

Explanation:
1. Each term = 2 × previous term - 2: 8 → 14 → 26 → 50 → 98 → 194 → 386.
2. The fourth term should be 50, so 48 is wrong.

Teacher's Note:
1. Find the differences or ratios between neighbouring terms; one break in an otherwise neat pattern points to the wrong term.
2. After finding the rule, rebuild the whole series and check that only one term disagrees.

Question 23: Find the wrong term in the given series.

(a) 768
(b) 384
(c) 100
(d) 48
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) 100

1. The terms are multiplied alternately by 2 and 4: 6 × 2 = 12, 12 × 4 = 48, 48 × 2 = 96, 96 × 4 = 384, ...
2. The fourth term should be 96, so 100 is wrong.

Teacher's Note:
1. Find the differences or ratios between neighbouring terms; one break in an otherwise neat pattern points to the wrong term.
2. After finding the rule, rebuild the whole series and check that only one term disagrees.

Explanation:
1. Each term = 2 × previous term + 1: 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511.
2. The fourth term should be 31, so 39 is wrong.

Teacher's Note:
1. Find the differences or ratios between neighbouring terms; one break in an otherwise neat pattern points to the wrong term.

(a) 221
(b) 109
(c) 46
(d) 25
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) 46

Explanation:
1. Next term = (previous term - 3) ÷ 2: (445 - 3) ÷ 2 = 221, (221 - 3) ÷ 2 = 109, (109 - 3) ÷ 2 = 53.
2. The fourth term should be 53, so 46 is wrong.
