5.  3;

6.3; 1—> 2 —>3 (Follow sequence)
Similarly 4 —> 5 —> 6 (Follow sequence).
From step I to step II it changes diagonally the corner element in the first row and in the step III, first row changes itself. In the middle row, first and third element interchange itself and the middle number got squared. From step II to step III the first and the second row element interchange  diagonally. The  middle  element  changes itself. The first element and the third element interchange with its corresponding element. In the last row first and third element interchange with each other. While middle element remains same.

7.5; 1  —> 2 —> 3

4 —> 5 —> 6 (Same sequence in this series).
From first to second step all element are squared. In third row first and third elements are interchanging similarly follow  in  the  second  row  and  replaced  by  the  next alphabet. While the middle element replaced by the next alphabet. From second to third step in the first row all element are added by 1. Then, first and third elements interchange their position.

8.2;1 —> 2 —> 3  —> 4
The 1st and 3rd element moves 90º clockwise in every row. While the 2nd element in each row moves 90º anti clockwise direction . Figure 4 is the last step of the series. In 5th new figure comes and same sequence follows.

9.1; 1—> 2  —> 3  —> 4
In  fifth  new  figure  comes  and  same  sequence  get followed. From step I to step II and step II to step III upper corner elements change their position. Centre element is squared of the previous element. While the corner middle row elements are replaced by the next alphabet. Then, lower corner  row  elements  diagonally  interchange  with  the middle corner element in next step. Then, upper corner elements diagonally interchange their position with the middle row corner elements.

10.4; 1  —> 2  —> 3 (Sequence)
4 —> 5  —> 6 (Same sequence in this series) All  the  box  elements  are  squared  of  it  previous  step element. Then, In next step all the box elements diagonally interchange their position. And  from  step I to step II corner element have same position. While from step II to step III they diagonally interchange.
