Answers:

36. d. Here is a simple addition series, which
begins with 9 and adds 7.
37. c. This is an alternating repetition series, with a
random number, 22, interpolated as every
third number into an otherwise simple addition
series. In the addition series, 4 is added
to each number to arrive at the next number.
38. d. This is an alternating addition and subtraction
series. In the first pattern, 2 is added to
each number to arrive at the next; in the
alternate pattern, 6 is subtracted from each
number to arrive at the next.
39. d. In this simple addition series, each number
is 5 more than the previous number.
40. b. This is an alternating addition series, with a
random number, 21, interpolated as every
third number. The addition series alternates
between adding 3 and adding 4. The number
21 appears after each number arrived at
by adding 3.
