What value will come in place of question mark (?) in following number series?

12, 16, 32, 68, ?

A) 198 B) 164
C) 132 D) 118
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 132

Explanation:

Given series is 

 

12        16         32          68         ?

 

Here it follows a pattern that,

 

12

 

12 + (2x2) = 16

 

16 + (4x4) = 32

 

32 + (6x6) = 68

 

68 + (8x8) = 132

Q:

Find the compound interest on Rs. 16,000 at 20% per annum for 9 months, compounded quarterly

A) 2422 B) 2522
C) 2622 D) 2722

Explanation:

Principal = Rs. 16000; Time = 9 months =3 quarters;
Rate = 20% per annum = 5% per quarter.
Amount = Rs. [16000 x (1+(5/100))3] = Rs. 18522.

 

 

 

CJ. = Rs. (18522 - 16000) = Rs. 2522

Q:

194, 194, 191, 183, 168, ?

Find the next number in the above series? 

A) 154 B) 156
C) 144 D) 143
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 144

Explanation:

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

Q:

Find the next two numbers in the sequence

4, 12, 6, 18, 12, 26, 30, ?, ?

A) 36 & 90 B) 90 & 41
C) 45 & 36 D) 41 & 36
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 36 & 90

Explanation:

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

Q:

SI unit of equivalent conductance

A) ohm/cm B) Siemens m2/equivalent
C) Siemens/equivalent D) mho/cm
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Siemens m2/equivalent

Explanation:

SI_unit_of_equivalent_conductance1556274980.jpg image

 

Equivalent conductance is defined as the conductance of an electrolyte solution containing one gram equivalent of the electrolyte. It is equal to the product of specific conductance (k) of the solution and the volume (V) of the solution that contains one gram equivalent of the electrolyte.

 

 λ = k x V

 

Unit of spceific conductance k is Siemens / m.

 

Volume of the solution V is m3

 

Now, required equivalent conductance unit is Siemens.m2/equivalent .
