Total Questions: 24

1. Find the missing number? [S.S.C MTS 02/05/2023 (Afternoon)]

Correct Answer: (c) 114
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(First number × 3) = Second number, (Second number × 2) = Third number

First Row :

(14 × 3) = 42, (42 × 2) = 84

Second Row:

(28 × 3) = 84, (84 × 2) = 168

Similarly,

Third Row:

(19 × 3) = 57, (57 × 2) = 114

2. Find the missing number? [S.S.C MTS 03/05/2023 (Evening)]

Correct Answer: (a) 48
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

First number × 3 = Second number, Second number × 2 = Third number

(14, 42, 84) → (14 × 3) = 42, (42 × 2) = 84

(21, 63, 126) → (21 × 3) = 63, (63 × 2) = 126

Similarly,

(8, 24, ?) → (8 × 3) = 24, (24 × 2) = 48

3. Find the missing number? [S.S.C MTS 04/05/2023 (Morning)]

Correct Answer: (c) 42
Solution:(First number + Third number) ÷ 2 = Second number

(82, 91, 100) → {(82 + 100) ÷ 2} ⇒ 182 ÷ 2 = 91

(63, 72, 81) → {(63 + 81) ÷ 2} ⇒ 144 ÷ 2 = 72

Similarly,

(24, 33, ?) → {(24 + 42) ÷ 2} ⇒ 66 ÷ 2 = 33

4. Find the missing number? [S.S.C MTS 08/05/2023 (Morning)]

Correct Answer: (b) 59
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(First number + Third number) ÷ 2 = Second number

(64, 69, 74) → {(64 + 74) ÷ 2} ⇒ 138 ÷ 2 = 69

(26, 31, 36) → {(26 + 36) ÷ 2} ⇒ 108 ÷ 2 = 54

Similarly,

(49, 54, ?) → {(49 + 59) ÷ 2} ⇒ 108 ÷ 2 = 54

5. Find the missing number? [S.S.C MTS 08/05/2023 (Afternoon)]

Correct Answer: (b) 48
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(First number + Third number) ÷ 6 = Second number

First row → {(80 + 160) ÷ 6} ⇒ 240 ÷ 6 = 40

Second row → {(30 + 60) ÷ 6} ⇒ 90 ÷ 6 = 15

Similarly,

Third row → {(24 + 48) ÷ 6} ⇒ 72 ÷ 6 = 12

6. Find the missing number? [S.S.C MTS 08/05/2023 (Evening)]

Correct Answer: (b) 33
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(Third number + First number) ÷ 2 = Second number

(26, 35, 44) → {(44 + 26) ÷ 2} ⇒ 70 ÷ 2 = 35

(47, 56, 65) → {(65 + 47) ÷ 2} ⇒ 112 ÷ 2 = 56

Similarly,

(15, 24, ?) → {(33 + 15) ÷ 2} ⇒ 48 ÷ 2 = 24

7. Find the missing number? [S.S.C MTS 09/05/2023 (Morning)]

Correct Answer: (b) 108
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(First number × 6) = Second number, (Second number × 2) = Third number

(6, 36, 72) → (6 × 6) = 36, (36 × 2) = 72

(8, 48, 96) → (8 × 6) = 48, (48 × 2) = 96

Similarly,

(9, 54, ?) → (9 × 6) = 54, (54 × 2) = 108

8. Find the missing number? [S.S.C MTS 10/05/2023 (Afternoon)]

Correct Answer: (c) 18
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(Second number + Third number) ÷ 2 = First number

(25, 40, 10) → {(40 + 10) ÷ 2} ⇒ 50 ÷ 2 = 25

(55, 70, 40) → {(70 + 40) ÷ 2} ⇒ 110 ÷ 2 = 55

Similarly,

(33, 48, 18) → {(48 + 18) ÷ 2} ⇒ 66 ÷ 2 = 33

Hence, "18" is the correct answer.

9. Find the missing number? [S.S.C MTS 11/05/2023 (Morning)]

Correct Answer: (b) 11
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

{(First number) × 2} = Second number, {(First number) ÷ 3} = Third number

(18, 36, 6) → 18 × 2 = 36, 18 ÷ 3 = 6

(24, 48, 8) → 24 × 2 = 48, 24 ÷ 3 = 8

Similarly,

(33, 66, ?) → 33 × 2 = 66, 33 ÷ 3 = 11

10. Find the missing number? [S.S.C MTS 11/05/2023 (Afternoon)]

Correct Answer: (a) 61
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(First number ÷ 2) = Second number, (Second number ÷ 2) = Third number

(80, 40, 20) → (80 ÷ 2) = 40, (40 ÷ 2) = 20

(112, 56, 28) → (112 ÷ 2) = 56, (56 ÷ 2) = 28

Similarly,

(244, 122, ?) → (244 ÷ 2) = 122, (122 ÷ 2) = 61
