Which image continues the sequence?
The correct answer is A. The size of the shapes change places vertically with each progression. Each time a new colour is added, that colour becomes the colour of both shapes in the following progression. So the addition of green in the fourth progression means that both shapes will be green in the fifth progression.
What is the next number in the series
1, 4, 9, 16, ?
The series is a square of all numbers:
1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5

Sandeep is knitting a 25 cm wide two meter long scarf. It takes him 30 rows of 22 stitches each to knit a 10cm x 10cm trial (“tension square”).
How many stitches will he need for each 25cm row in the scarf?
Answer: 55 stitches
25 cm × 22 stitches / 10cm
= 25 × 22 / 10 stitches
= 55 stitches
Which image completes the pattern?
The answer is A. On the top row, there are normal, complete letters. On the second row, the top half of letter A has been erased, so we must pick a similar picture for letter M. The picture we are looking for is A.
