In Number Series, questions are asked on the basis of relation between numbers given in a
series. The questions asked can be divided into different types:
Type I: In this type of questions, a series of numbers is given with one number missing
represented by a question mark. Candidate has to select from the options choices to correct
option in place of the question mark. The given sequences of numbers will be such that each
number follows its predecessor in the same way, i.e., according to a particular pattern.
Candidates are required to find out the correct ways in which the sequence is formed and there
after find out the number to complete the series.

Rational numbers: - All that numbers which can be expressed in the form of where p
& q are integers and q
42
etc. An improper fraction is a fraction whose numerator is equal to or greater than its
etc.
2. Irrational Numbers:- All that numbers which cannot be expressed in the form of are
called irrational numbers. They have non-terminating and non-recurring decimal parts.
For example:
etc.
43
Odd Numbers: All the natural numbers which are not a multiple of 2 are called odd
numbers. They are denoted as 2k
For example: 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 etc.
Let x = 0.77777.
If x = 0.27272727 .
10x = 7.77777
100 x = 27.272727
Let x= 0.143333333..
100x = 14.333333.

Divisibility Rules:

Number
Divisibility Rule
Example
6732 is divisible by 4 as 32 is
divisible by 4, but 2142 is not
divisible by 4.
Note
Similarly the
remainder when 42 is
divided by 4 i.e 2 will
also be the
remainder when
2142 is divided by 4.
If the number is
divisible by 4 and 6
both, then it is not
necessary that it is
divisible by 24 (6 4).

when divided by 8.
The remainder when
17 is divided by 9 i.e
8 will also be the
remainder when 764
is divided by 9.
11
9415956 is divisible by 11 as
the difference of 9+1+9+6 =25
and 4+5+5 = 14 is 11, but
31872 is not as the sum of
even places = 13 and sum of
odd is 8 their difference is
neither 0 nor 11.

7. Seema bought 20 pens, 8 packets of wax colours, 6 calculators and 7 pencil boxes. The price
of one pen is Rs. 7, one packet of wax colour is for Rs. 22, one calculator is for Rs. 175 and one
pencil box costs Rs. 14 more than the combined price of one pen and one packet of wax
colours.
How much amount did Seema pay to the shopkeeper?
(1) Rs. 1,491
(2) Rs. 1,725
(3) Rs. 1,667
(4) Rs. 1,527
(5) None of these
Solution: Price of one pencil box = 14 + (Price of one pen + Price of one packet of wax colours)=
14+ (7+22) = Rs. 43
Total amount paid by Seema
= {(20 7) + (8 22) + (6 175) + (7 43)}
= Rs 1667

answer.

to calculate the question to the exact value.
9. It is better to solve a line chart with two lines and 5 points than to solve a table with 5
rows and 6 columns. But this may not be the case always looking at the other factors.
Growth rate and Growth:
Growth and Growth rate are two different cases. Growth refers to just increase in the
underlying value, while the Growth rate refers to the percentage increase. For example
following table shows the sales and profit of a company A in Rs. Lakhs
1999
2000
2001
2002
2003
Sales
240
290
320
350
380
Profit
50
55
70
50
40
Here,
Growth during the period from 2000 to 2002 is simple the difference of sales = 350-290 = 60
But the Growth rate during this period is the percentage of growth =
Profit Percentages:
The profit percentage is not
but it is
202
Also the percentage change in profit percentage is percent of profit percent of two years with
base as previous year profit percent. For example the percentage change in profit percentage in
the year 2002 over that in year 2001 is:
=
=
But in line graph growth rate is related to slope of line. There are few points to understand:
1. The slope of each segment is same across all years of company B but still the growth
rate is not the same in all years. The same slope simply means the sales grow by a
constant amount each year. But the growth rate depends on the base value so in
company B its decreasing from 2000 to 2004.
2. The line representing sales of A in 2002-03 is steeper but 2003 is not the year with
highest growth rate of sales of A . The highest growth rate of sale of A is in year 2001.

Example: The following pie diagram shows the expenditure incurred on the preparation of a
book by a publisher, under various heads.
A: Paper 20, B: Printing 25%, C: Binding, Canvassing, Designing etc 30%
D: Miscellaneous 10% E: Royalty 15%
Study the diagram carefully and answer the questions 1-5:
1) What is the angle of pie diagram showing the expenditure incurred on paying the
royalty?
(a) 15 degrees
(b) 24 degrees
(c) 48 degrees
(d) 54 degrees
248
2) The marked price of a book is 20% more than the C.P. If the marked price of the book be
Rs 30, what is the cost of paper used in a single copy of the book?
(a) Rs. 6
(b) Rs. 5
(c) Rs 4.50
(d) Rs 6.50
3) Which two expenditures together will form an angle of 108 degrees at the centre of the
pie diagram:
(a) A and E
(b) B and E
(c) A and D
(d) D and E
4) If the difference between two expenditures be represented by 18 degrees in the piediagram, these expenditures are :
(a) B and E
(b) A and C
(c) B and D
(d) none of these
Answers:
1) (d) Angle representing royalty D = (15360/100)degrees = 54 degrees
2) (b) C.P. of a book = Rs ( 10030/120) = Rs 25
Cost of paper = Rs (2025/100) = Rs 5
3) (c) angle A = (20360/100)degrees =72 degrees
Angle B = (25360/100) degrees = 90 degrees
Angle C = (30360/100)degrees = 108 degrees
Angle D = (10360/100) degrees = 36 degrees
Angle E = (15360/100) degrees = 54 degrees
Thus, A and D together will form an angle of 108 degrees.
4) (d) These expenditures are A and B; Band C; D and E; and A and E.
