Q304.Find the missing (?) in the series: FHJ, KMO, PRT, ?
Correct Answer: D
Inside each triad, letters increment by +2 (F-H-J, K-M-O, P-R-T). The first letters of successive triads increment by +5 (F->K->P). Next first letter is P(16) + 5 = U(21). Continuing by +2 yields U-W-Y.
Q305.In the following series, what comes next? 1, A, 9, I, 17, .... ?
Correct Answer: C
Numbers increase by +8 (1, 9, 17). Letters correspond to those exact alphabetical positions: A (1st), I (9th), Q (17th). The next letter is therefore Q.
Q306.Sun is to earth as earth is to:
Correct Answer: B
The Earth orbits around the Sun, just as the Moon orbits around the Earth.
Q307.AB/m, EF/o, ......., MN/s
Correct Answer: B
The alphabetical pairs increment their first letters by +4: AB -> EF -> IJ -> MN. The letter suffixes after the slash increment by +2: m(13) -> o(15) -> q(17) -> s(19). Thus, IJ/q is the missing term.
Q308.Sequence: 2, 6, 14, 30, 62, .....?
Correct Answer: B
The differences are +4, +8, +16, +32 (each doubles). The next difference is +64: 62 + 64 = 126.

Q314.If A = {1,2,3,4,6} B= {2,4,5,7} then B-A =?
Correct Answer: D
B - A consists of elements in B that are not present in A. B - A = {5, 7}. Since this set is not listed, 'none' is the correct choice.
Q315.The next term in the series 3C, 5E, 7G, 9I, 11K, is?
Correct Answer: B
Numbers increase by +2: 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13. Letters skip one each time: C(3), E(5), G(7), I(9), K(11), M(13). So the next term is 13M.
Q316.Which of the following figure completes the interlocking floral shapes pattern?
Correct Answer: D
By examining the symmetry of the interlocking lines of the floral shapes, the missing piece must align with all four surrounding quadrants, which corresponds to option D.
Q317.Which figure completes the analogy: Square with triangle inside becomes just a triangle; so Square with circle inside becomes?
Correct Answer: C
The relationship removes the outer shape (the square) and keeps only the innermost shape. Applying this to a square with a triangle inside yields a hollow triangle (C).
Q318.Which figure completes the horizontal reflection of the concentric triangles?
Correct Answer: B
A horizontal reflection mirrors the top half of the concentric triangles to the bottom half, and vice versa, which is represented by option B.
Q319.Which figure completes the analogy: Filled shape inside larger shape becomes empty shape; so filled circle inside larger circle becomes?
Correct Answer: A
The relationship is that the inner filled shape becomes hollow/empty. Applying this to a filled circle inside a larger circle yields a hollow circle inside a larger circle (A).
Q320.Which figure completes the analogy: Arrow pointing down rotates 90 degrees counter-clockwise to point right; so Arrow pointing up rotates to?
Correct Answer: D
A 90-degree counter-clockwise rotation applied to an upward-pointing arrow results in an arrow pointing to the left (D).
