P. 70
Example: Observe the series of numbers given below and write the next
three terms:
3, 6, 9, 12, 15
Solution: You can observe that each number in the series is obtained by
adding 3 to the previous number. Thus, the rule for the series is +3. Using
this rule, the next three items in the series will be 18 (15 + 3), 21 (18 + 3),
and 24 (21 + 3).
Shapes in Shapes
There are different geometrical shapes such as rectangle, triangle, circle, and
oval. Some shapes can be seen inside other shapes.
Example: Observe the given figure and count the number of triangles in it.
5
2 1 3
6 4 7
Solution: There are 9 triangles in the figure - 4 small triangles marked 1 - 4, 4
medium triangles, and 1 large triangle marked in blue outline.
Coding-Decoding
Coding-Decoding is the process of substituting the letters of a word with
some other letters according to a certain rule. To get back the original word,
you have to apply the rule to the coded word in reverse order.
Example: The word PRINTER is coded as QSJOUFS in a certain code language.
Write the code for the word MONITOR using the same code language.
Solution: If you match the letters of the word PRINTER with QSJOUFS, we find
that each letter of PRINTER is replaced with its next letter in the alphabet.
Thus, A is replaced with B, B with C, C with D, and so on. Thus, the code for
MONITOR will be NPOJUPS.
