Answer: (d)

Clearly, (1st row)³ + (2nd row)³ + (3rd row)³ = 4th row

So, in the first column,

2³ + 1³ + 3³ = 8 + 1 + 27 = 36

In the third column,

0³ + 4³ + 3³ = 0 + 64 + 27 = 91

∴ In the second column, missing number = 4³ + 2³ + 1³ = 64 + 8 +1 = 73

Answer: (b)

Each column has one of the numbers 1, 2 or 3. So column 2 will have 3 in the middle. Each row has one of the alphabets A, B or C. So row 2 will have C in middle. Further the signs are related with numbers as follows :

C₃ = C₁ – C₂ & R₃ = R₁ – R₂

Check :

Similarly

So the answer is 3C

Answer: (c)

In the first row, (263 – 188) × 4 = 300.

∴ In the second row, missing number

= (915 – 893) × 4 = 22 × 4 = 88.

Answer: (c)

L is the 12th (5 + 4 + 3) letter

P is the 16th (8 + 7 + 1) letter

S is the 19th (9 + 6 + 4) letter

So the 8 + 3 + 2 = 13th letter will be M.

Answer: (d)

We have : 4 × 2 – 1 = 7, 7 × 2 + 1 = 15,

15 × 2 – 1 = 29 × 2 + 1 = 59,

59 × 2 – 1 = 117, 117 × 2 + 1 = 235.

So missing number = 235 × 2 – 1 = 469.
