Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

132 = 4 x 3 x 11, So if the number is divisible by all three numbers 4,3 and 11,then the number is divisible by 132 also.
264   => 4,3,11(/)
396   => 4,3,11(/)
462   => 11,3
792   => 4,3,11(/)
968   => 11,4
2178 => 11,3
5184 => 3,4
6336 => 4,3,11(/)
Required number of numbers=4.

a+b=5   ...(1)    and    3a+2b=20 ...(2)

Multiplying (1) by 2 and subtracting from (2), we get : a=10.

Putting a=10 in (1), we get : b=-5

Therefore,   (3a+b) = 3 x 10+(-5)=30-5=25.

Here the given number series is 2 4 27 256 3125 46656

It follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 11 = 1 \\ 22 = 4 \\ 33 = 27 \\ 44 = 256 \\ 55 = 3125 \\ 66 = 46656 \end{gathered}$$

Hence the wrong number in the given number series is 2 instead of 1.

Arithmetic Series ::

An Arithmetic Series is a series of numbers in which each term increases by a constant amount.

How to find the sum of the Arithmetic Sequence or Series for the given Series ::

When the series contains a large amount of numbers, its impractical to add manually. You can quickly find the sum of any arithmetic sequence by multiplying the average of the first and last term by the number of terms in the sequence.

That is given by Sn = n(a1 + an)2 Where n = number of terms, a1 = first term, an = last term

Here Last term is given by an = a1 + n-1d where d = common difference

Now given Arithmetic Series is 

2, 5, 8, 11,...

Here a1 = 2,  d = 3, n = 36 

Now, $$\begin{gathered} an= a1 + n - 1d \\ a36= 2 + 36 - 13 = 105 + 2 = 107 \end{gathered}$$

Now, Sum to 36 terms is given by

S36 = 36(2 + 107)2 = 36 x 1092 = 39242 = 1962

Therefore, Sum to 36 terms of the series 2, 5, 8, 11,... is 1962.

2 and 3 are the satements involving the extreme terms of the last 2 premises and form a complementary pair. Thus either 2 or 3 follows

Here the given number series is 6, 3, 3, 4.5, 10

The odd one in the given series is 10

The pattern it follows is

6

6 x 0.5 = 3

3 x  1  = 3

3 x 1.5 = 4.5

4.5 x 2 = 9

Hence, the odd number is 10.

Daughter of your father — Your sister. So, the person's mother is woman's sister or the woman is person's aunt. 

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
