sed number series areas fol:
Addition serles: In this type of series, specific numbers
based on some pater are acsedto get the next number.
For exampe:
2 5,811,14,17,20,7
‘Solution: Te solution ofthe series eas follows:
5 @ uo om ym 2
TSS WwW Ss
‘The number in place of? should be: 20 + 3 = 23.
2 3,6,14,18,27,,51
Solution: The solution ofthe series Is 2 follows:
a 18 gat 72 St
OS WT Ww Wr Ww
The numberin place of? should be 27 + 11 = 38,
‘Subtraction series: In this type of series, specific numbers
based on some pattern are subtracted to get the next
umber.
For example:
2 50,45, 40, 35,30, 7
Solution: The solution ofthe series is as follows:
50 45 4050?
s
‘The number in place of? should be 30 - 5 = 25,
2 42, 30, 20, 12,2,2
‘Solution: The solution ofthe series sas follows:
a2 3 2 2 7 2
Tw es F
‘The number in place of? should be 12 - 6 = 6

‘Solution: 4 is the consecutive even number of 2, 6 fs
the consecutive even number of 4, and 60 on. The
required number is the consecutive even number of
410, which is 12. So, 12s the required number.
2 3,5,7,2,1413
Solution: 5 isthe consecutive odd number of 3,7 is
the consecutive odd number of 5, and so on. The

Starting from 5. So, the requiced number isthe succeeding
prime number of 19, which is 23,
‘Arithmetic series If the difference between a term and its
Preceding term is constant throughout the series, then this
‘Series is Known as arithmetic series. In this series, the first
term is represented by ‘a’, the common difference by ‘a
(aa ~ ax) and Ta (= 2 + (7 ~ 1) d) represents ts n®™ term.
For example,
1 4,10, 16,22, 28,2
Solution: This isan increasing series. Here, d
=16~10
So, the required term = 28 +

2 17,15,13,2,9,7
Solution: The given series is a decreasing series.
Here, d= (15 - 47)= (43 - 15)=-2
So, the required term = 13 +(-2)= 44
Geometric series: Ifthe ratio of any term and its preceding
term is constant throughout the series, then this series is

In banking exams, diferent types of questions are asked. Some
‘of them are shown with the help of examples:
viDEo.
‘Scan this QR code to watch our expert
speak on ranking
‘Type 4: In this type of question, the positions/ranks of a person
from both sides in a row are known and we have to find the
total number of persons in that row or vice versa,
‘Total numberof persons = (sum of pastons of same person trom |
bath sis... let nd rip side/top and bottom) ~ 3}
Example 1: in a row of students, position of Mithoo from left,
‘ide of the row is 35th and from right side of the row is 26th.
Find total numberof students in the ow.
Solution: Total no. of students = (Position of Mithoo from left +
Position of Mithoo from right) ~ 1
=Total no. of students = (35 + 26) - 1 =61- 1= 60
Position ea person trom opposite side = (Tota no. of persons -
Postion of same person trom gwen sie) +3]
Example 2: In @ row of 20 persons, position of Ankit from right
‘ide of the row is 15th. Find his position from left side of the.
ton?
‘Solution: Position of Ankit from left side = ((Total number of
‘Bersons in the row ~ Position of Ankit from right side) + 1]
‘Position of A trom left side = (20 - 15) +4
+1=60
Type 2: When the positions of two persons are given from
Opposite ends and we know the total number of persons, then
wwe have to determine the nuthiber of persons between these
‘wo persons. In this type two cases arise:

= No. of persons between A & B = (35+22) - 54 - 2= 57 -
54-2=4
Case (lit: If positions of different persons from any side are
Biven and total no. of students is to be calculated then it

Example 5: In a row Position of A from left side of the row is
18th and position of 8 from right side of the row is 25th. Find
the total no. of students in the row?
Solution: Cannot be determined as position of different
persons is given from the same side,
‘Type 3: When the positions of two persons are given and their
Positions are interchanged, after interchanging position of 1st
Berson is given from same side as before interchanging, then
(i) position of 2nd person from the same side as before
interchanging = Position of 2nd person from same side

Direction (Q. 1-8 Study the following information carefully
_and answer the questions given below.
P,Q. R.S, and T are five persons in a buliding. Each of them
plays one game namely Football, Cricket, Hockey, Tennis and
Boxing, not necessarily in the same order.
|. Pand R both neither play Cricket nor Football
4. Q4and T both neither play Tennis nor Hockey.
fi, Sand T both do not like to play Football and Tennis,
|v. Preither plays Boxing or Tennis.
¥. [Link] not like to play Cricket
Solution:
‘This puzzle can be solved withthe help ofa truth table.
First, prepare the matrix in which rows represent the persons
‘and coluras represent the games.
From the point (), mark (x) under the Cricket and Footbal!
{games column in front of person P and R.
From the point (i), mark (%) under the Tennis and Hockey
‘games column in front of person Q and T,
From the point (i, mark (x) under the Football and Tennis
ames column in front of person $ and T.
After using first three statements, we can see that only one box
‘is unerossed in column Football and infront of person Q. So we
can say that the person Q plays Football. Now, mark (7) in the
‘box and mark (*) all row because one person plays only one
game,
Now the truth table is as follows:

‘Now, mark (7) in the
can say thatthe person P pays Hockey. Now, mark (7) inthe
ton and mark (2) in the remaining blank boxes
Hockey.
Now the truth table is 26 follows
ne box is uncrossed in
‘After markings, we can see that, only one box is
‘column Tennis and in front of person R. So, we can say that the

person R plays Tennis. Now, mar
all boxes in that row.
Now the truth table is as follows:

From the point (v), mark (x) under the cricket column in front of
Person S.
After using fifth statement, we can see that, only one box is
Unerossed in front of S and under the column Boxing. So we
‘can say that the person S is into Boxing. Now, mark (¥) in the
box and mark (x) in the remaining blank boxes in column
Boxing.
Now the truth table is as follows:
Q
R * ¥ x * x
s * * = v x
T * * * *
‘Now, we see that, only one box is left in the truth table. This box
's related to the column cricket and in front of person T. Now,
