Answers with Explanations (1-5):
1. (1): 232= 529
          23 + 6 = 292 = 841
          29 + 2 = 312 = 961
         36 + 6 = 372 = 1369
         37 + 2 = 392 = 1521
         39 + 6 = 452 = 2025
         45 + 2 = 472 = 2209
        So wrong is 1296

2. (1): There are two series running simultaneously –
            I. 13   27  39   52
            II.  24   48  72
                   13 –26 – 39 – 52
           24 – 48 – 72 -
         So 27 is wrong.

3. (4):2197   3375   4913   6858   9261   12167
         Series of cube –
          133 = 2197
          153 = 3375
         173 = 4913 
        193 = 6859
        213= 9261
        233= 12167
        So wrong is 6858 

4. (2):154   462   231   694   346.5   1039.5   519.75
            154 × 3 = 462
            462 ÷ 2 = 231
            231 x 3 = 693
            693 ÷2 = 346.5
            346.5 × 3 = 1039.5
          1039.5÷ 2 = 519.75
         So wrong is 694  

5. (4):9   16    25    41   68   107   173
            9 + 16 = 25
            25 + 16 = 41
           41 + 25 = 66
         66 + 41 = 107
         107 + 66 = 173
         So wrong is 68


 Answers (6-10):
6. (3)           7.(4)     8. (3)     9. (4)     10. (5)
