How to approach it
Number series test arithmetic structure, not advanced mathematics.
Work accurately before quickly. State the rule, test every step, then compare choices.
Practice set
Try each prompt before reading its answer or strategy.

- 2, 6, 18, 54, ? — 162.
- 9, 16, 25, 36, ? — 49.

Practice effects
Practice improves familiarity and strategy, but a short exercise is not a standardized assessment.
Use unfamiliar material and time between sessions for a more honest snapshot.
