Q:

Find the next number in the sequence?

28, 16, 28, 76, 274

A) 1233 B) 1243
C) 1256 D) 1276
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1243

Explanation:

Given number sequence is 28, 16, 28, 76, 274

Here the sequence follows a pattern that

28

28 x 0.5 + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16

16 x 1.5 + 4 = 24 + 4 = 28

28 x 2.5 + 6 = 70 + 6 = 76

76 x 3.5 + 8 = 266 + 8 = 274

274 x 4.5 + 10 = 1233 + 10 = 1243

 

Hence, the next number in the given number sequence is 1243.

Q:

A number is increased by 20% and then decreased by 20%, the final value of the number is ?

A) increase by 2% B) decrease by 3%
C) decrease by 4% D) increase by 5%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) decrease by 4%

Explanation:

Here, x = 20 and y = - 20
Therefore, the net % change in value
=x + y + xy100 %
20 + -20 + 20 × -20100%  or  - 4%

Since the sign is negative, there is a decrease in value by 4%.

Q:

Find the Odd One Out?

3 24 186 1008 5040 20160

A) 24 B) 20160
C) 186 D) 5040
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 186

Explanation:

The given number series is 3  24  186  1008  5040  20160

Here  the given series follows a pattern that,

3

3 x 8 = 24

24 x 7 = 168 not 186

168 x 6 = 1008

1008 x 5 =  5040

5040 x 4 = 20160

 

Hence the Odd One in the number series is 186.

Q:

Find the sum of the Arithmetic Series upto 36 terms

2, 5, 8, 11,...

A) 3924 B) 1962
C) 1684 D) 1452
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1962

Explanation:

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, an= a1 + n - 1d a36= 2 + 36 - 13 = 105 + 2 = 107 

 

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.

Q:

Brightness of bulb depends on voltage or current?

A) Current B) Voltage
C) Both A & B D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Both A & B

Explanation:

Brightness of bulb depends on both voltage and current. The brightness depends on power.

Since we know that  Power (P) = Voltage x Current = V I

So whether you increase the current or the voltage the brightness will increase.

 

Example Illustration:

 If you connect a long bulb and a round bulb in series, the long bulb glows but the round bulb does not. Both of them have the same current flowing through them (they are in series) but the long bulb has a greater voltage across it because it has more resistance (even though V= IR is not obeyed exactly, voltage drop does depend on the resistance). If you connect a round bulb and a long bulb in parallel, however, it is the round bulb that is brighter because now the voltage across both bulbs is the same but the current is larger through the round bulb (smaller resistance).

 

Hence, the brightness of a bulb depends on power i.e, both voltage and current.

Q:

Find the Next Number in the given number series?

3, 10.5, 36.75, 128.625, ?

A) 450.187 B) 442.151
C) 441.231 D) 456.852
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 450.187

Explanation:

Pattern is

      • 3
      • 3 x 3.5 = 10.5
      • 10.5 x 3.5 = 36.75
      • 36.75 x 3.5 = 128.625
      • 128.625 x 3.5 = 450.187
