Bank Clerk Questions

The given number series follows a pattern that,

56

56 + 8 = 64

64 - 16 = 48

48 + 32 = 80 (Not equal to 90)

80 - 64 = 16

16 + 128 = 144 

Hence, the odd number in the given number series is 90.

Let the sum be Rs. x

a. gives, S.I = Rs. 9000 and time = 9 years.

b. gives, Sum + S.I for 6 years = 2 x Sum

--> Sum = S.I for 6 years.

Now, S.I for 9 years = Rs. 9000

S.I for 1 year = Rs. 9000/9 = Rs. 1000.

S.I for 6 years = Rs. (1000 x 6)= Rs. 6000.

--> x = Rs. 6000

Thus, both a and b are necessary to answer the question.

This can be easily simplified by Approximation process

Given 39.96% of 649.85 ÷13.07 = 45.14 - ? can be written as 

40% of 650 ÷13 = 45 - ?

$$\begin{gathered} 40 x 65010013 = 45 - ? \\ ? = 45 - 20 \\ ? = 25. \end{gathered}$$

The Saka Era was founded by Kanishka, the emperor of Kushana empire from the year 78 A.D.

Here the given series 28, 12, 4, 2, -2 follows a pattern that

$$\begin{gathered} 28 \\ 28 - 24 = 28 - 16 = 12 \\ 12 - 23 = 12 - 8 = 4 \\ 4 - 22 = 4 - 4 = 0 (NOT 2) \\ 0 - 21 = 0 - 2 = -2 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the odd man in the given series is 2.

In each term second two numbers are multiples of the first number. But in 4-15-24 15 is not multiple of 4.

The letter of the word are written in a reverse order and then each letter is moved one step backward to obtain the code.
