11. pq _ dh _ qmd _ p _ m _ h _ q _ dh [S.S.C CGL 17/08/2021 (Afternoon)]

Correct Answer: (a) m, p, h, q, d, p, m
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

m, p, h, q, d, p, m → pqmdh / pqmdh / pqmdh / pqmdh

Hence, "m, p, h, q, d, p, m" is the correct answer.

12. 215, 231, 256, 292, ? [S.S.C CGL 17/08/2021 (Evening)]

Correct Answer: (b) 341

The difference is the square of the consecutive number.
215 + 4² = 231
231 + 5² = 256
256 + 6² = 292
Similarly, 292 + 7² = 341

Hence, "341" is the correct answer.
