Caliper Assessment Caliper Assessment Abstract Reasoning and Numerical Skills Questions and Answers 1 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: In a Caliper abstract reasoning question, you see the pattern: 2, 6, 18, 54, ___. What comes next?
- 108
- 162 (Correct answer)
- 72
- 216
Correct answer: 162
Each term is multiplied by 3, so 54 × 3 = 162.
Question 2: A Caliper numerical reasoning question states: If a project costs $4,800 and is split equally among 6 team members, then increased by 15%, what is each member's new share?
- $800
- $920 (Correct answer)
- $880
