Question Answer How to work out the answer
1 3c Letters increment by one every second letter.
2 4e ccd ... Eef ... ggh!
3 5y Ist letter of alphabet, then last, 2nd, 2nd last, 3rd, 3rd last
4 3j 2 interspersed sequences. First decreasing by one: fedc and second
increasing by one: ghi J
5 4r Letters are in triplets decreasing by one. rqp ... rqp .... Rqp
6 3q Letters go up by three each time. 2nd letter of alphabet, 5th 8th etc.
7 1s 2 interspersed sequences again. First one decrementing by 2, second
incrementing by 2
8 5t Letters decrement by 4 each time
9 4m The gap between letters increases by one each time 0, 1, 2, 3, 4
10 1h Letters are in triplets which decrement by 3, but starting letter of
each triplet increments by one: 10,7,4 ... 11,8,5
11 5p Letters double each time 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 - n
12 4f 2 seqences interspersed, both incrementing by 2 each time
13 1p Sequence of squares according to place in alphabet: 1, 4, 9, 16 - p
14 4h Take out the d's and you get a simple alphabetical sequence!
15 1r Letter are in triplets: letter, letter+1, letter+1, then triplet repeats but
incremented by 2.
16 2s Letters are in pairs which increment by 4 places in the alphabet each
time.
17 1m The odd letters decrement by 4 each time.
18 3x Each whole triplet increments by one, whilst the letters in the triplet
decrease by 3.
19 1f Take out the k's and you have a simple alphabetical sequence.
20 5g Each third letter descends by 1
21 2l Each letter increments by 7, the alphabet wraps round.
22 3n Each third letter increments by 2
23 1l The even letters decement by one each time.
24 3f These are triplets, the first and the last letter of the triplet increments
by 1 each triplet.
25 4h Every second letter increments by 2
26 2m Getting hard now! Prime numbers.
27 5o 1 m, 2 n's, 3 o's, 4 p's.
