Answer is 274 .
Let the required term be x.
Pattern :- 1) Find the difference between consecutive terms as :
2 – 1 = 1
4 – 2 = 2
13 – 4 = 9
31 – 13 = 18
112 – 31 = 81
2) Now write the above numbers obtained by differences in series as :
1, 2, 9, 18, 81, y
(Suppose y be next term after 81.)
3) Look the difference series carefully and it follows the below pattern as :
(9 * 2)/1 = 18
(18 * 9)/2 = 81
(81 * 18)/9 = 162 = y (the next term after 81)
Thus the required answer is :
x = 112 + y
x = 112 +162 =274

To solve this problem, we can break it down into steps:
Step 1: Determine the individual rates of work for A, B, and C.
If A needs 8 days to finish the task, then their work rate is 1/8 of the task per day.
If B needs 12 days to finish the task, then their work rate is 1/12 of the task per day.
If C needs 16 days to finish the task, then their work rate is 1/16 of the task per day.
Step 2: Calculate the combined work rate of A and B.
If A works for 2 days, their contribution will be 2 * (1/8) = 1/4 of the task completed.
If B works until 25% of the job is left for C, then they will complete 75% of the task.
Step 3: Calculate the time it takes for B to complete 75% of the task.
Since B’s work rate is 1/12 of the task per day, it will take B (75%)/(1/12) = 9 days to complete 75% of the task.
Step 4: Calculate the remaining work for C.
If B completes 75% of the task, then the remaining work for C is 100% – 75% = 25% of the task.
Step 5: Calculate the time it takes for C to complete the remaining work.
Since C’s work rate is 1/16 of the task per day, it will take C (25%)/(1/16) = 4 days to complete the remaining 25% of the task.
Step 6: Calculate the total time required.
A worked for 2 days, B worked for 9 days, and C worked for 4 days, totaling 2 + 9 + 4 = 15 days.
Therefore, it will take a total of 15 days for A to work for 2 days, B to work until 25% of the job is left, and C to complete the remaining work.
Let the number of males be given the name M.
Let the number of females be given the name F.
If 15 females are absent, then M will be twice that of
present females.
This means that M = 2 * (F – 15)
M = 2 * F – 30.
or 2 * F – M = 30.
Now if in addition to the 15 females being absent, we also
have 45 males being absent,
then this gives the equation,
(F – 15) = 5 * (M – 45)
which simplifies to
F – 15 = 5 * M – 225
5 * M – F = 210
Pulling the equations together, we get
5 * M – F = 210
-M + 2 * F = 30
Multiply the first equation by 2, and keep the second
equation as is.
10 * M – 2 * F = 420
– M + 2 * F = 30
Add the equations.
9 * M = 450
M = 50
Verify answer.
Calculate F
from – M + 2 * F = 30
-50 + 2 * F = 30
2 * F = 30 + 50
F = 40.
If 15 females are absent, then number of males will be twice
that of females.
40 – 15 = 25.
50 = 2 * 25. Confirmed.
If also 45 males were absent, then female strength would be
5 times that of males.
Female strength is 25 due to the 15 females being absent.
50 – 45 = 5.
25 = 5 * 5. Confirmed.
F+V-E =2;
F= faces;V= vertices;E = number of edges
121 I. e it is Prime numbers square
((15 X m) + 23)/(m+1)= 16
solving , we get number of matches (m) as 7 (excluding last
match)
so he shud hit 39 runs in last innings to ake average to 18
Burn Rope One first, it will burn in 30 mins.Mark 30 mins and at the end of 30 mins now burn second rope from both sides (15 mins it will take ),and simultaneously burn third and last rope until it is half left.30+15= 45 , Remaining time 7.5 mins.By this time last rope is burnt half ,and now burn it from both sides as well it will exhaust in 7.5 mins. 30+15+7.5=52.5 measured.
