Solutions

Solution (6-10):
Sol. Different operations are applied on the numbers in every step.
Step I: Even numbers are divided by 2 and then subtracted by 2. Odd numbers are divided by 3 and then subtract by 3.
Step II: Add 1st and 2nd no. (+), difference of 2nd and 3rd no. (-) and so on. This operation starts from left end and continues till the addition of 7th and 8th no. So, the sequence is: +, –, +, –, +, –, +.
Step III: Sum of all the digits of each number (Digit sum)
Step IV: Odd Numbers are multiplied by 2, Even numbers are is multiplied by 3.

Input: 105 164 333 584 222 489 176 267
Step I: 32 80 108 290 109 160 86 86
Step II: 112 28 398 181 269 74 172
