Hi Rajesh Series 1 seems to me to be a series about the days of the week. I think the number of letters for the days of the week is given starting from sunday.

Sunday --- 6
Monday --- 6
Tuesday --- 7
Wednesday --- 9
Thursday --- 8
Friday --- 6
Saturday --- 8

So the missing number must be 9 for Wednesday.

Hi again,

Series 2 seems to me to be a series about pi number. It is known that number pi is given as 3,14159265...
And in this series I think the digits forming number pi is given consecutively as 3 1 4 1 5. So I think the next number will be 9.

Hi,

I think Series 5 is about digits 1-9. I think the number of letters in the digit names given consecutively as follows:

1 --- one --- 3
2 --- two --- 3
3 --- three --- 5
4 --- four --- 4
5 --- five --- 4
6 --- six --- 3
7 --- seven --- 5
8 --- eight --- 5
9 --- nine --- 4

So the missing numbers seems to be 5,5,5 in this series.

Hi

Series 3 is a little bit strange. But I have an idea like that:

Each following number starts with the last letter of the previous digit and while searching next digit we go from number to 9 and then from 1 to number. If I apply this rule to the given sequence

2 --- two --- ends with o
1 --- one --- starts with o, ends with e
8 --- eight --- starts with e, ends with t
According to my rule explained above I must put again 2 after 8 since it starts with t. But if the series is decided to be formed by different digits then I must skip 2 and write 3 to the next place since it also starts with t. I have no other idea about this sequence.

Regards,

Zafer

If we take the Series 4 it would be very easy if the next number is 7:)) But you told it isn't. So there must be anything else about this series. I again think that it is about the names of digits 1-9. I think the digits whose name ends with an e is given consecutively as follows:

1 --- on'e'
3 --- thre'e'
5 --- fiv'e'
9 --- nin'e'

So I think the last digit must be 9 which is missing.

Thanks Zafer,

Most of your answers are right and for Series 5 your logic is quite good but I have something else in mind for Series 5. I will wait for some other people put their guess and logic behind it before I put my logic.

Great you solve it right. So many years after posting this #puzzle, I completely forget the logical reasoning used to solve this puzzle. Thanks for your comment, I could recollect the logic used for this picture puzzle.

Great, This is one of the oldest puzzle post on this website. Nice to see the visitor coming back and solving these puzzles even after almost of a decade of posting these #puzzles.

One has 3 letters
Three has 5
Five has 4. So 4
Although I like the 'e's solution
