Quantitative Aptitude - Arithmetic Ability Questions

the next 2 number in series we need to divide the series into 2 different series

First series : 4 , 6, 12, 30 ??

Second Series : 12,18,26, ??

So we need to see for the pattern for those series in order to find the next two number , we can do this by finding the difference or division , multiplication logic whatever may apply :

• Pattern of Series 1 :

6 divide 4 : 1.5

Next number i.e 12 divided by 6=2

Next number i.e 30 divided by 12 =2.5

So series is going in multiples of 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3 , so on

So first series will look like

4 , 6, 12, 30, 30x3 =90

• Pattern of Series 2 : 12,18,26, ??

Its simple Adding numbers with iterative logic (i.e 6, 8, then followed by 10, 12)

Series will be like 12,18,26,36.

For the next two numbers : Series will be like 4, 12, 6, 18, 12, 26, 30, 36, 90

Let the numbers be  3x and 4x . Then their H.C.F = x. So, x=4

 Therefore, The numbers are 12 and 16

 L.C.M of 12 and 16 = 48

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*13C1 = 169.

P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 169/1326 = 13/102.

(A+B) - (B+C) = 12

A - C = 12.

C is younger than A by 12 years.

The diameter is equal to the shortest side of the rectangle.

 So radius= 14/2 = 7cm. 

Therefore,  area of circle =πr2=227×49=154cm2

Given number series is 9 17 11 19 13 

Here the pattern is

• 9

• 9 + 8 = 17

• 17 - 6 = 11

• 11 + 8 = 19

• 19 - 6 = 13

• 13 + 8 = 21

• 21 - 6 = 15

• 15 + 8 = 23

Here the series follows,

194

194 - (1x1 - 1) = 194

194 - (2x2 - 1) = 191

191 - (3x3 - 1) = 183

183 - (4x4 - 1) = 168

168 - (5x5 - 1) = 144
