    The pattern of the number series is given as follows:
    454 + 18 = 472
    472 - 27 = 445
    445 + 18 = 463
    463 - 27 = 436
    436 + 18 = 454

    Correct Option: C

    The pattern of the number series is given as follows:
    454 + 18 = 472
    472 - 27 = 445
    445 + 18 = 463
    463 - 27 = 436
    436 + 18 = 454

    The pattern of the number series is given as follows:
    12 x 4 - 30 = 48 - 30 = 18
    18 x 4 - 36 = 72 - 36 = 36
    36 x 4 - 42 = 144 - 42 = 102
    102 x 4 - 48 = 408 - 48 = 360
    360 x 4 - 54 = 1440 - 54 = 1386

    Correct Option: B

    The pattern of the number series is given as follows:
    12 x 4 - 30 = 48 - 30 = 18
    18 x 4 - 36 = 72 - 36 = 36
    36 x 4 - 42 = 144 - 42 = 102
    102 x 4 - 48 = 408 - 48 = 360
    360 x 4 - 54 = 1440 - 54 = 1386



Direction: In each of these questions, a number series is given. In each series, only one number is wrong. Find out the wrong number.

    The pattern of number series is as follows :
    7 x 2 - 2 = 12
    12 x 4 - (2 + 6) = 48 - 8 = 40
    40 x 6 - (8 + 10) = 240 - 18 = 222
    222 x 8 - (18 + 14) = 1776 - 32 = 1744 ≠ 1742
    1744 x 10 - (32 + 18) = 17440-50=17390

    Correct Option: D

    The pattern of number series is as follows :
    7 x 2 - 2 = 12
    12 x 4 - (2 + 6) = 48 - 8 = 40
    40 x 6 - (8 + 10) = 240 - 18 = 222
    222 x 8 - (18 + 14) = 1776 - 32 = 1744 ≠ 1742
    1744 x 10 - (32 + 18) = 17440-50=17390
