Explanation

We are given:

• PQS, QRT, RSU, STV, and need to find the next term in the sequence.

The pattern follows the sequence of consecutive letters:

• First letters: P, Q, R, S, T (increasing by 1)
• Second letters: Q, R, S, T, U (increasing by 1)
• Third letters: S, T, U, V (increasing by 1)

The next set of letters should be T, U, W.

(A) TUW

Explanation

Let's say Asad gives x sweets to Ahsan.

Then, Asad will have 20 - x sweets left.

And Ahsan will have 55 + x sweets.

We want Ahsan to have four times as many sweets as Asad, so we set up the equation:

55 + x = 4(20 - x)

Simplifying the equation, we get:

55 + x = 80 - 4x

Add 4x to both sides:

55 + 5x = 80

Subtract 55 from both sides:

5x = 25

Divide by 5:

x = 5

So Asad should give 5 sweets to Ahsan.

Then, Asad will have 20 - 5 = 15 sweets.

And Ahsan will have 55 + 5 = 60 sweets.

Indeed, Ahsan will have four times as many sweets as Asad: 60 = 4 × 15.

The correct answer is: 5

Explanation

The prime numbers less than 25 are: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, and 23.

Let's add them up:

2 + 3 = 5

5 + 5 = 10

10 + 7 = 17

17 + 11 = 28

28 + 13 = 41

41 + 17 = 58

58 + 19 = 77

77 + 23 = 100

So, the sum of prime numbers less than 25 is: 100

Explanation

The pattern appears to be the number of letters in each word:

DRIVER has 6 letters, but the value is 7 ( possibly due to a additional constant or a different calculation)

PARLIAMENTARIAN has 15 letters, but the value is 16 (again, possibly due to a additional constant or a different calculation)

If we apply the same pattern to SECRETARY, which has 9 letters, we get:

SECRETARY = 10 (using the same offset as before)

So, the correct answer is: 10

Explanation

Horse (an older or archaic term for a male horse) is to Mare (a female horse)

Fox (a male fox) is to Vixen (a female fox)

Explanation

Dollar : Dime :: Century: Decade

A dime is worth one-tenth of a dollar.

A decade is one-tenth of a century (10 years in a decade, 100 years in a century).

Explanation

The pattern of the sequence appears to be an alternating addition of 9 and 2:

12 + 9 = 21

21 + 2 = 23

23 + 9 = 32

32 + 2 = 34

34 + 9 = 43

So, the missing number is: 43

Explanation

Explanation

Pair up the letters of the alphabet as follows: A = 1, Z = 26; B = 2, Y =25; C = 3, X = 24; ... M = 13 , N =14. So, we have a correspondence between 13 pairs of letters: ( A, Z) , (B, Y), ( C, X), (D,W), (E, V), (F, U), (G, T), (H, S), (I, R), (J, Q), (K, P), (L, O), (M, N).

Thus:

H = S

O = L

L = O

Y = B

and...

L = O

O= L

W= D

So, the whole analogy is :

HOLY: SLOB as LOW : OLD
