JUPITER = (1+0)(2+1)(1+6)I(2+0)E(1+8)= 137I2E9
MERCURY =(1+3)E(1+8)C(2+1)(1+8)(2+5)= 4E9C397
13.
Similar pairs of letters have been given the same numeric in each word. As a result pair
AL in word ALKALI has been coded 3, pair ON has been coded 9 likewise pair AN has
been coded 4. Hence, word BANANA is coded as B44A.
14.
15. Every pair of consecutive same letters is represented by a symbol, and rest of the letters
are coded on a +13 level
16. Coding pattern is (2n + 1) where n = position of alphabet in alphabetic order.

22. L is the brother of P

Series is Tn = (n)(2n
)37.
One letter from the beginning and one from the end of a term are removed, one by one,
in alternate steps.
38.
39.
The series is made up of two series: B, C, E, H, L,Q… (+1, +2, +3, +4, +5,…)
And A, D, G, J, M,… (+3,+3,+3,+3,….)
Thus next term would be of the second series: M+3 =P
40. Each term in the series is obtained by subtracting from the preceding term the number
formed by the first three digits of the preceding term.
41. 1
st term + 2
nd term +2 = 3
rd term
2+3+2 = 7
3+7+2 = 12
7+12+2 = 21
12+21+2 = 35
21+36+2 = 59
36+62+2 = 100
42. This series is an extension of what is often called as tetranacci sequence. Let us
understand tetranacci series first. The sum of previous four numbers is called as the
tetranacci series. Thus 0,1, 1, 2, 4, 8, 15, 29, 56, 108 and so on. Each term here is one
less than what is there in the tetranacci series

43. Take the alternative numbers as a series. 48 52 60. The differences of the subsequent
numbers are factors of 4 that is 4 and 8.
The other series is 54 60 72. The differences of subsequent numbers are factors of 6
that is 6 and 12.So the next number should add the next factor of 4 in the first series that is 60+12=72
which is not in the option. So the answer is e.
44. 794 = 16 + 26 + 36
276 = 15 + 25 + 35
98 = 14
+ 24
+ 34
36 = 13
+ 23
+ 33
14 = 12 + 22 + 32
11 + 21 + 31 = 6
45. The series is wxyzz/wxyzz/wxyzz/wxyzz. Thus, the pattern 'wxyzz' is repeated.
46.
5, 6, 4, 1, 3, 2 BRIDGE47.
ANT & TAN are two possible words
48. CONSTANT is the only word that can be formed.
(a) CONTINUE - U not in the main word
(b) SCIENCE - two C’s not in the main word
(c) CONSTANT - Possible
