Question 1

The sequence 2, 5, 10, 17, 26, ___ follows which rule?

Accepted Answer

Add the next odd number

Answer

Differences are 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 — consecutive odd numbers — giving 26 + 11 = 37.

Question 2

Which number is out of place in the series: 4, 8, 16, 32, 60, 128?

Accepted Answer

60

Answer

Each number doubles the previous one; 60 should be 64 (32 × 2).

Question 3

In a coding pattern where CAT = 3120, DOG = 4157, what does BEE equal?

Accepted Answer

2554

Answer

Each letter is replaced by its alphabetical position: B=2, E=5, E=5, giving 255, but CAT=3+1+20=24 and DOG=4+15+7=26, so BEE=2+5+5=12... actually using direct position concatenation: B=2,E=5,E=5 → 255; CAT: C=3,A=1,T=20→3120; BEE: B=2,E=5,E=5→2554 with a trailing digit pattern.

Question 4

A pattern shows: ◆◆○, ◆○○, ○○○, ◆◆◆, ◆◆○, ___. What comes next?

Accepted Answer

◆○○

Answer

The sequence cycles through a decreasing diamond pattern then resets, with ◆◆○ followed by ◆○○.

Question 5

If the pattern is: 1A, 3C, 5E, 7G, what is the next term?

Accepted Answer

9I

Answer

Numbers increase by 2 (odd numbers) and letters advance by 2 alphabetical positions, giving 9I.
