BLACK becomes K, C, A, L, B; their next letters L, D, B, M, C have positions 12, 4, 2, 13, 3, giving 1242133. RED becomes D, E, R, whose next letters have positions 5, 6, 19, so A is correct.
Q4Find the wrong number in the series – 2880, 480, 92, 24, 8, 4, 4
The intended pattern is division by 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 successively: 2880/6 = 480, then 480/5 should be 96, not 92. Continuing from 96 gives 24, 8, 4 and 4. Therefore 92 is the wrong number, so option B is correct.
