solutions :

Ans 1. The difference between two consecutive number is decreasing  by 1 at each step.
series
        ∴ 58 should be in place of 60.

Ans 2.The sequence followed in this series is :
                     3 x 3 + 1 = 10
                     10 x 4 + 1= 41
                    41 x 5 + 1 = 206
                   206 x 6 +1 = 1237; and 
       ∴ 1237 shuold be in place of 1236.

Ans 3. The sequence followed  in this series is :
            3 x 4  = 12
            4 x 5  = 20
            5 x 6  = 30 
            6 x 7  = 42
            7 x 8  = 56
            8 x 9  = 63
∴ 30 should be in place of 38.

Ans 4.The numbers in the series are divided by numbers in reverse  order starting from 6 to get the next number .
series
      ∴ 168 should be in place of 32.

Ans 5. The sequence is the  square of the number in decreasing order  starting from 9, i.e
            92  = 9 x 9 = 81
            82  = 8 x 8 = 64
            72  = 7 x 7 = 49
            62  = 6 x 6 = 64
            52  = 5 x 5 = 25
            42  =  4 x 4 = 16
   ∴ 36 should be in place of 35

Ans 6 . The number in the series are divided by 5 to get the next number .
series
      ∴ 1 should be in place of 0 digit.

Ans 7. Other numbers are prime numbers.

         31  = 3
         32  = 3 x 3 = 9
         33  = 3  x 3 x 3 = 27
    next number :
          41 = 4 
          4= 4 x 4  = 16 
          43 =  4 x 4 x 4 = 64
    next number :
           51 = 5
           52  = 5 x 5 = 25
           53  = 5 x 5 x 5 = 125
 ∴   9 should be in place of 10 .
Ans 9. In this series the numbers are multiplied by odd numbers in natural order numbers in natural order starting from 3, i .e.
series
    ∴ 1365 should be in place of 1363
