C 78
D 328

Answer: Option [D]

The pattern is x 1 + 4, x 2 + 8, x 3 + 12, x 4 + 16, x 5 + 20

So, 3 x 1 + 4 = 7

So, 7 x 2 + 8 = 22

So, 22 x 3 + 12 = 78

So, 78 x 4 + 16 = 328 which replaces C

4   5,    4,    10,    27,   77,   380

C 21
D 8

Answer: Option [B]

The pattern is x 1 - 1, x 2 - 2, x 3 - 3, x 4 - 4, x 5 - 5

So, 6 x 1 - 1 = 5

So, 5 x 2 - 2 = 8

So, 8 x 3 - 3 = 21

So, 21 x 4 - 4 = 80 which replaces D
