ll About Number Series

What is Number Series?
Number series is a arrangement of numbers in a certain order, where some
numbers are wrongly put into the series of numbers and some number is missing in
that series, we need to observe and find the accurate number to the series of
numbers.
In competitive exams number series are given and where you need to find missing
numbers. The number series are come in different types. At first you have to
decided what type of series are given in papers then according with this you have
to use shortcut tricks as fast as you can .
Different types of Number Series
There are some format of series which are given in Exams.
Perfect Square Series:
This Types of Series are based on square of a number which is in same order and
one square number is missing in that given series.
Example 1: 441, 484, 529, 576?
Answer: 441 = 212, 484 = 222, 529 = 232, 576 = 242 , 625 = 252.
Perfect Cube Series:

This Types of Series are based on cube of a number which is in same order and
one cube number is missing in that given series
Example 2: 1331, 1728, 2197, ?
Answer : 113 , 123 , 133 , 143
Geometric Series:
This type of series are based on ascending or descending order of numbers and
each successive number is obtain by multiplying or dividing the previous number
with a fixed number.
Example 3: 5, 45, 405, 3645,?
Answer: 5 x 9 = 45, 45 x 9 = 405, 405 x 9 = 3645, 3645 x 9 = 32805.
Two stage Type Series:
A two tier Arithmetic series is one in which the differences of successive numbers
themselves form an arithmetic series.
Example 4: i. 3, 9, 18, 35, 58,
ii. 6, 9, 17, 23,Mixed Series:
This type of series are more than one different order are given in a series which
arranged in alternatively in a single series or created according to any nonconventional rule. This mixed series Examples are describes in separately.
Examples 5:
11, 24, 50, 102, 206, ?
Answer:
11 x 2 = 22 +2 = 24,

24 x 2 = 48 + 2 = 50,
50 x 2 = 100 + 2 = 102,
102 x 2 = 204 + 2 = 206,
206 x 2 = 412 + 2 = 414.
So the missing number is 414.

(A)
The given series is : 13 1, 23 2, 33 3, 43 4, 53 5, 63 6,
So the missing term = 73 7 = 343 7 = 336 .

2.

(D)
The pattern is + 3, + 5, + 3, + 5,
So the missing term is = 30 + 5 = 35 .

3.

(A)
The pattern is + 6, + 9, + 12, +15 ..
So the missing term is = 21 + 12 = 33 .

4.

(C)
The pattern is +4, +8, +16, +32, +64
So the missing term is = 30 + 16 = 46 .

5.

1.B
There are two series here
2, 10, 18, 26, ... (Increase by 8)
7, 22, 37, ... (Increase by 15)
Hence, next term is 37+15 = 52
2.C
Go on dividing by 6 to the next number
3.D
12
12 3 + 2 = 38
38 3 + 2 = 116
116 3 + 2 = 350
350 3 + 2 = 1052
1052 3 + 2 = 3158
4.A
46080 /12 = 3840
3840 /10 = 384
384 /8 = 48
48 /6 = 8
8/4 = 2
2 /2 = 1
5.C
28=23+5
57=29+28

125=37+88
166=41+125
6.D
The differences between two successive terms from the beginning are 7, 5, 7, 5, 7,
5. So, 40 is wrong.

7.B
In this question, if you start from the beginning, firstly the difference is 31, then the
difference is 17, then the difference is 8. So there is no logic. If you start
backwards,you can see that firstly, 1 is added, then 2 is added, then 4 is added, then
8,16 and 32 should have been added. So you have got the right clue. So 15 + 32 the
first number should be 47 and afterwards, the series becomes + 16, + 8, + 4and so
on.
8.C
3-2=1
12-3=9
37-12=25
86-37=49
166-86=80(this must be 81=167-86=81)
so wrong number in the sequence is 166
difference between two sucessive numbers sequence would be
1,9,25,49,81,121(square of 1,3,5,7,9,11)
9.E
2nd term = (1st term) * 1 + 1 = 15 *1 + 1 = 16.
3rd term = (2nd term) * 2 + 2 = 16 * 2 + 2 = 34
4th term = (3th term) *3 + 3 = 34 * 3 + 3 = 105
5th term = (4th term) * 4 + 4 = 105 * 4 + 4 = 424
6th term = (5th term) * 5 + 5 = 424 * 5 + 5 = 2125
6th term should 2125 instead of 2124.
10.C
Go on multiplying the number by 2 and adding 1 to it to get the next number.So, 27
is wrong.

ANSWERS AND SOLUTION:
1(D)Explanation :
By the rule of alligation, we have
Cost of 1 kg of 1st kind rice Cost of 1 kg of 2nd kind rice
6.6
9.6
Price of 1Kg of the mixture
8.2

9.6 - 8.2 = 1.4

8.2 - 6.6 = 1.6
Quantity of 1st kind rice : Quantity of 2nd kind rice = 1.4 : 1.6 = 7 : 8
Quantity of 1st kind rice : 56 = 7 : 8
=>Quantity of 1st kind rice = 567/8=49
2( B)Explanation :By the rule of alligation, we have
% Concentration of water
% Concentration of water
in pure water : 100
in the given mixture :
Mean % concentration
20
20 - 10 = 10
100 - 20 = 80
=> Quantity of water : Quantity of the mixture = 10 : 80 = 1 : 8
Here Quantity of the mixture = 16 litres
=> Quantity of water : 16 = 1 : 8
Quantity of water = 161/8=2 litre
3( A)Explanation :
concentration of water in mixture1 = 2/9 (Since the ratio of milk and water = 7:2)
---item(1)
concentration of water in pure water= 1 ---item(2)
Now the above mentioned items are mixed to form a mixture2 where milk and
water ratio = 7: 3
=>concentration of water in mixture2 = 3/10
By the rule of alligation, we have
concentration of water
concentration of water
in mixture1 : 2/9
in pure water : 1
Mean concentration
3/10
1 - 3/10 = 7/10
3/10 - 2/9 = 7/90
=> Quantity of mixture1 : Quantity of water = 7/10 : 7/90 = 1/10 : 1/90 = 1 : 1/9
Given that Quantity of mixture1 = 630 ml
=> 630 : Quantity of water = 1 : 1/9
=Quantity of water = 63019=70 ml
4( D)Explanation :
%Concentration of alcohol in pure water = 0
%Concentration of alcohol in mixture = 42

quantity of water : Quantity of mixture = 3 : 11

Let the %Concentration of alcohol in the new mixture = x
By the rule of alligation, we have
%Concentration of alcohol : 0
%Concentration of alcohoI
in pure water
in mixture : 42
Mean %Concentration
x
42 - x
x-0=x
But (42 - x) : x = 3 : 11
=42-x/x = 3/11
=4211-11x = 3x
=14x = 4211
=x=311 = 33
=> The percentage of alcohol in the new mixture is 33%
5(A)Explanation :Let that the number of boys = b and number of girls is g
number of boys + number of girls = 41
=> b + g = 41 ------------ (Equation 1)
Given that each boy got Rs.12 and each girl got Rs.8 and Total amount = Rs.460
=> 12b + 8g = 460 -------- (Equation 2)
Now we need solve Equation 1 and Equation 2 to get b and g
(Equation1)8=>8b+8g=841=328--------(Equation3)
(Equation 2) - (Equation 3) = 4b = 460 - 328 = 132
=>b=132/4=33
6(D)Explanation : Let the sum be Rs.x
Amount after 3 years on Rs.x at 20% per annum when interest is compounded
annually
=P(1+R/100)^T=x(1+20/100)^3=x(120/100)^3=x(6/5)^3
Compound Interest = x(6/5)^3-x = x[(6/5)^3-1] =x[216/125-1]=91x/125
Simple Interest = PRT/100=x203/100 =3x/5
Given that difference between compound interest and simple interest is Rs.48
91x/125-3x/5=48
(91x-75x)/125=48
16x/125=48
x=48125/16 =3125= Rs. 375
i.e, the sum is Rs.375
7(B)Explanation:Let the mother's present age be x years.

Then, the person's present age = (2/5 x) years.

=> (2/5 x + 8/2) = 1 (x + 8)
=> 2(2x + 40) = 5(x + 8)
=> x = 40
8(C)Explanation :Let total number of men = 100
Then, 80 men are less than or equal to 50 years old
(Since 80% of the men are less than or equal to 50 years old)
=> 20 men are above 50 years old (Since we assumed total number of men as 100)
=>20% of the men above the age of 50 play football
?Number of men above the age of 50 who play football = 2020/100=4
Number of men who play football = 20 (Since 20% of all men play football)
Percentage of men who play football above the age of 50 = 4/20100=20%
=>Percentage of men who play football less than or equal to the age 50 = 100%20%=80%
9(B)Explanation:
Net part filled in 1 hour = (1/5+1/6-1/12)
=17/60hrs
=3 9/17
10(A)Explanation :We know that Angle traced by hour hand in 12 hrs = 360
Time duration from noon to 10 minutes past 5 = 5 hours 10 minutes
=5 10/60hour =31/6 hours
Hence the angle traced by hour hand from noon to 10 minutes past 5 =
31/6360/12 =31/630=315=155

e. None of these
Answer key and solution:
1- (C)(Explanation:Let the S.P = 100 then C.P. = 25 , Profit = 75,
so Profit% = 75/25 * 100 = 300%
2-(B)
3-(D)
4-(C)(Explanation:As question states that rate was of pair of articles,
So rate of One article = 37.40/2 = Rs. 18.70
Let Marked price = Rs X then 85% of X = 18.70 => X = 1870/85 = 22
5-(B)(Explanation:Let the cost price = Rs 100 then, Marked price = Rs 135
Required gain = 8%,
So Selling price = Rs 108 Discount = 135 - 108 = 27, Discount% =
(27/135)*100 = 20%
6-(D)(Explanation: 85 : 9 = 105 : x, x= (9?105/85) = Rs 11.81
7-(A)(Explanation: Suppose he bought 5 kg and 3 kg of tea, Cost Price = Rs. (5 x
18 + 3 x 20) = Rs. 150. Selling price = Rs. (8 x 21) = Rs. 168. Profit = 168 - 150 =
18,
So, Profit % = (18/150) * 100 = 12%
8-(D)(Explanation: Gain % = (164.36*100/2400) = 6.84 % = 7% approx
9-(B)(Explanation:Let the C.P. = x, Then S.P. = (120/100)x = 6x/5 New S.P. =
2(6x/5) = 12x/5
Profit = 12x/5 - x = 7x/5 Profit% = (Profit/C.P.) * 100 => (7x/5) * (1/x) * 100 =
140 %
10-(C)(Explanation:Friends, we know we will need gain amount to get gain
percent, right.
So lets get gain first.
Let the cost price of 1 pen is Re 1 Cost of 8 pens = Rs 8 Selling price of 8 pens =
12
Gain = 12 - 8 = 4 Gain%=(GainCost*100)%=(48*100)%=50%

1 .(d)
Explanation:
Here, S = {1, 2, 3, 4, ...., 19, 20}.
Let E = event of getting a multiple of 3 or 5 = {3, 6 , 9, 12, 15, 18, 5, 10, 20}.
So P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 9/20 .
2.(a)
Explanation:
Total number of balls = (2 + 3 + 2) = 7.
Let S be the sample space.
Then, n(S) = Number of ways of drawing 2 balls out of 7
= 7C2 `
=(7 x 6)/(2 x 1)
= 21.
Let E = Event of drawing 2 balls, none of which is blue.
n(E)= Number of ways of drawing 2 balls out of (2 + 3) balls.
= 5C2
=(5 x 4)/(2 x 1)
= 10.
P(E = n(E)/n(S)
= 10/21
3.(a)
Explanation:
Total number of balls = (8 + 7 + 6) = 21.
Let E = event that the ball drawn is neither red nor green
= event that the ball drawn is blue.
so , n(E) = 7.
P(E) =n(E)/n(S) = 7/21 = 1/3
4.(c)
Explanation:
In two throws of a die, n(S) = (6 x 6) = 36.
Let E = event of getting a sum ={(3, 6), (4, 5), (5, 4), (6, 3)}.
So P(E) = n(E)n(S) = 4/36 = 1/6
5.(d)

Explanation:
Here S = {TTT, TTH, THT, HTT, THH, HTH, HHT, HHH}
Let E = event of getting at most two heads.
Then E = {TTT, TTH, THT, HTT, THH, HTH, HHT}.
P(E) = n(E)/n(S) =7/8 .
6.(c)
Explanation:
Here, n(S) = 52.
Let E = event of getting a queen of club or a king of heart.
Then, n(E) = 2.
P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 2/52 = 1/26 .
7.(c)
Explanation:
Let S be the sample space.
Then, n(S) = number of ways of drawing 3 balls out of 15
= 15C3
= (15 x 14 x 13)/(3 x 2 x 1)
= 455.
Let E = event of getting all the 3 red balls.
n(E) = 5C3 = 5C2 = (5 x 4)/(2x1) = 10.
P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 10/455 = 2/91 .
8.(d)
Explanation:
Let S be the sample space.
Then, n(S) = 52C2 = (52 x 51)/(2 x 1) = 1326.
Let E = event of getting 1 spade and 1 heart.
n(E) = number of ways of choosing 1 spade out of 13 and 1 heart out of 13
= (13C1 x 13C1
= (13 x 13)
= 169.
P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 169/1326 = 13/102 .
9.(b)
Explanation:
Clearly, there are 52 cards, out of which there are 12 face cards.
P (getting a face card) = 12/52 = 3/13 .

10.(b)
Explanation:
Let number of balls = (6 + 8) = 14.
Number of white balls = 8.
P (drawing a white ball) = 8/14 = 4/7 .
