Verbal Reasoning - Series Completion

Each term in the series is obtained by adding 22 to the preceding term.

So, 186 is wrong and must be replaced by (165 + 22) i.e. 187.

The terms of the series are products of two consecutive prime numbers i.e. (2 x 3),

(3 x 5), (5 x 7), (7 x 11),.....

So, 165 is wrong and must be replaced by (11 x 13) i.e. 143.

The correct pattern is + 5, + 8, + 11, + 14,.....

So, 47 is wrong and must be replaced by (32 + 14) i.e. 46.

Each term of the series is obtained by multiplying the preceding term by 2.

So, 96 is wrong and must be replaced by (64 x 2) i.e. 128.

The correct pattern is x 1 + 1, x 2 + 2, x 3 + 3, x 4 + 4,.....

So, 32 is wrong and must be replaced by (10 x 3 + 3) i.e. 33.
