Bank PO Questions

4 o'clock, the hands of the watch are 20 min. spaces apart.
To be in opposite directions, they must be 30 min. spaces apart.
Minute hand will have to gain 50 min. spaces.
55 min. spaces are gained in 60 min 

50 min. spaces are gained in 6055×50 min. or 54611 

Required time = 54611 min. past 4.

Let the average after 7th inning = x

Then average after 16th inning = x - 3

16(x-3)+87 = 17x 

 x = 87 - 48 = 39

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

Here the number follows the given rule 

 $$\begin{gathered} 23-1, 33-1, 43-1, 53-1, ... \\ \end{gathered}$$

But 28 has been given in problem series.

so 28 is wrong number.

The given number series follows a pattern that,

9

9 x 0.5 + 0.5 = 5

5 x 1 + 1 = 6

6 x 2 + 2 = 14

14 x 4 + 4 = 60 (not equals to 56)

60 x 8 + 8 = 488.

Hence, the odd one in the given number series is 56.

Given Number series is :

3   4   14   48   576   27648

It follows a pattern that,

3

4

4 x 3 = 12   but not 14

12 x 4 = 48

48 x 12 = 576

576 x 48 = 27648

Hence, the odd one in the given Number Series is 14.

At 2 o'clock, the hour hand is at 2 and the minute hand is at 12, i.e. they are 10 min spaces apart. 

To be together, the minute hand must gain 10 minutes over the hour hand. 

Now, 55 minutes are gained by it in 60 min.

  10 minutes will be gained in 6055×10 min. = 101011 min. 

The hands will coincide at 101011 min. past 2.

The given number series is 10, 6, 8, 15, ?

10

10 x 0.5 + 1 = 6

6 x 1 + 2 = 8

8 x 1.5 + 3 = 15

15 x 2 + 4 = 34

Hence, the next number in the given series is 34.
