73) 8 (first number goes up one, second goes down one)
74) KLMH - got it now.
75) 67 ( 7+4=11 11+8=19 19+16=35 35+32=67)
76) W (letter gaps - first 2, then 3, then 4...)
77) 10 (half the difference each time, round up on decimals)
78) -57 (difference between two numbers minus nine each time)
79) O (4 letters in between each two - add or subtract)
80) S (hard to explain)
81) 26 (add ten, minus 5, add ten, minus 5)
82) BMSK (no P?)



Pretty positive about them all except 82.

Thanks, Guys.  Between the 3 of you and me I think I got most of them right.  Not a big deal but my boss asked me (not just me, everybody) to do this and this stuff makes me nervous as Hell.

You got the correct answer, but that's not why it's correct.

The sequence is 60 30 20 15 12

30 = 1/2 of 60

20 = 1/3 of 60

15 = 1/4 of 60

12 = 1/5 of 60

The next number is 10 because 10 = 1/6 of 60

Yeah... It's late. My mind was in the right place - just having a hard time explaining it.

My head hurts!
