Epic Skills Assessment Logical Pattern Recognition 2 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: A sequence reads: 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, ___. What comes next?
- 72
- 96 (Correct answer)
- 84
- 60
Correct answer: 96
Each term doubles the previous one, so 48 × 2 = 96.
Question 2: Which shape completes the pattern: Circle, Square, Triangle, Circle, Square, ___?
- Circle
- Square
- Triangle (Correct answer)
- Pentagon

- H
- J (Correct answer)
- I
- G
Correct answer: J
The pattern alternates two sequences: D,F,H (even letters +2) and B,D,F (even letters), next is J.
Question 4: In a matrix where Row 1 = [2, 4, 8] and Row 2 = [3, 9, 27], what is the missing value in Row 3 = [4, 16, ___]?
- 32
- 48
- 64 (Correct answer)
- 36
Correct answer: 64
Each row raises the first element to increasing powers: 4^1=4, 4^2=16, 4^3=64.
Question 5: A pattern of dots: 1, 4, 9, 16, ___. What comes next?
- 20
- 24
- 25 (Correct answer)
- 36
Correct answer: 25
These are perfect squares (1², 2², 3², 4²), so the next is 5² = 25.
Question 6: Which letter pair follows the sequence: AZ, BY, CX, DW, ___?
- EX
- EV (Correct answer)
- FV
- EU

First letters advance (A,B,C,D,E) while second letters retreat (Z,Y,X,W,V), giving EV.
Question 7: A figure series shows squares with 1, 4, 9, 16 dots arranged in grids. What arrangement comes next?
- A 4×5 grid of 20 dots
- A 5×5 grid of 25 dots (Correct answer)
- A 4×6 grid of 24 dots
- A 6×4 grid of 22 dots
Correct answer: A 5×5 grid of 25 dots
The grids represent consecutive perfect squares, so after 4×4=16 comes 5×5=25.
