Verbal Reasoning - MCQ Practice Questions

Differences: +1, +2, +3, +4, +5, +6, +7. Next is 31 + 7 = 38

Each term is multiplied by 3. 162 × 3 = 486

Fibonacci sequence: 34 + 21 = 55

Powers of 3: 3¹, 3², 3³, 3⁴, 3⁵, 3⁶ = 729

Differences: +2, +3, +4, +5, +6, +7. So 24 + 7 = 31

Differences: +3, +5, +7, +9, +11, +13. Next difference is 13, so 37 + 13 = 50

Differences: +5, +10, +15, +20, +25. Next difference is 25, so 56 + 25 = 81

Triangular numbers: 1, 1+2=3, 3+3=6, 6+4=10, 10+5=15, 15+6=21, 21+7=28

Differences: +2, +3, +4, +5, +6, +7, +8. Next difference is 8, so 31 + 8 = 39

Differences: +1, +2, +3, +4, +5, +6, +7. Next difference is 7, so 22 + 7 = 29

Differences: -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -7, -8. After 85, subtract 6 to get 79

Perfect cubes: 1³, 2³, 3³, 4³, 5³, 6³, 7³. Missing term is 6³ = 216

Prime numbers series: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23

Differences: +1, +3, +5, +7, +9, +11. Next difference is 11, so 29 + 11 = 40

Differences: +1, +2, +3, +4, +5, +6, +7. Next difference is 7, so 30 + 7 = 37

Pattern: Each term is obtained by doubling the previous term and subtracting a decreasing value. 5→7 (+2), 7→11 (+4), 11→19 (+8), 19→35 (+16), 35→67 (+32). The differences are powers of 2.

Pattern: Each term is 2 times the previous term plus 1. 3→2(3)+(-1)=5, 5→2(5)-1=9, 9→2(9)-1=17, 17→2(17)-1=33, 33→2(33)-1=65, 65→2(65)-1=129.

In MOTHER→RMOTEH: positions are rearranged as 6,1,3,4,5,2. Applying same pattern to SISTER (6 letters): S(6)→R, I(1)→S, S(3)→I, T(4)→S, E(5)→E, R(2)→T = RSISET

PAINT→QCMOU: P(+1)=Q, A(+2)=C, I(+4)=M, N(+1)=O, T(+1)=U. Pattern: +1,+2,+4,+1,+1. For GRAIN: G(+1)=H, R(+1)=S, A(+2)=C, I(+1)=J, N(+1)=O = HSCJO

SOLUTION→UPMVYJRK: S(+2)=U, O(+1)=P, L(+1)=M, U(+1)=V, T(+1)=U (no, Y=25), I(+1)=J, O(+1)=P (no, R=18), N(+1)=O (no, K=11). Checking shifts: S→U(+2), O→P(+1), L→M(+1), U→V(+1), T→Y(+5), I→J(+1), O→R(+4), N→K(-3). Shifts of +1: O, L, U, I = 4 letters
