In the following number series a wrong number is given. Find out the wrong number.

1, 3, 10, 21, 64, 129, 356, 777
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:

The given pattern is,
2nd term → 1*2+1 = 3
3rd term → 3*3+1 = 10
4th term → 10*2+1 = 21
5th term → 21*3+1 = 64
6th term → 64*2+1 = 129
7th term → 129*3+1= 388
So, 7th term 356 is wrong and must be replaced by 388.

Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, Saturday, Wednesday, Monday, .....
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option A
Solution:

Sunday to Monday = no gap
Monday to Wednesday = One day gap.
Wednesday to Saturday = Two days gap.
Saturday to Wednesday = Three days gap.
Wednesday to Monday = Four days gap.
In the next term there must be five days and six days gap.
So, Next term would be Sunday, Sunday.



Details Explanations
The sequence follows a pattern based on the increasing gap of days between consecutive terms.

From Sunday to Monday, there is no day gap.

From Monday to Wednesday, there is a one-day gap.

From Wednesday to Saturday, there is a two-day gap.

From Saturday to Wednesday, there is a three-day gap (counting forward cyclically through the week).

From Wednesday to Monday, there is a four-day gap.

Following this logical progression, the next gaps should be five days and then six days.

A five-day gap from Monday leads to Sunday, and a six-day gap from Sunday again leads to Sunday.

Hence, the next two terms are Sunday, Sunday, making Option A the correct answer.
