Correct Answer: 119

Solution : Given:
339, 284, 229, 174, ?

Subtract 55 from the previous term to obtain the next term.
339 – 55 = 284; 284 – 55 = 229; 229 – 55 = 174; 174 – 55 = 119

So, 119 is the missing term in the given series. Hence, the second option is correct.

Solution : Given:
MAD : JXA :: RUN : ?

Subtract 3 from the place value of the letters of MAD, to get the second term –

Thus MAD is codded JXA.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for RUN : ?→
R – 3 = O, U – 3 = R, N – 3 = K

Thus, RUN is coded as ORK. Hence, the third option is correct.

So, –7 is the required missing number. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
