Series


Direction: In each of the following questions two sets of pictures (Question Figure and Answer Figure) are given. In the Question Figure set, a series pattern a, b, c, d and e is given, you have to find out the answer for the question mark from the Answer Figure (1, 2, 3, 4, 5).

  1. Find out answer from the answer figures(1, 2, 3, 4, 5) for the question mark (?) that completes the series of question figure.

    In each step, both the line segment close to the sides of the hexagon at adjacent side in a clock wise direction, also the line segment at the corner to the box moves clock wise and the number increases.

    Correct Option: A

Direction: In each of the following questions, a number series is given in which one number is wrong. You have to find out that number and have to follow the new series which will be started by that number. By following this, which will be the 2nd number of the new series?

  1. 3 , 4 , 12 , 45 , 190 ,1005 , 6066

    From above given series , we can see that
    Next term = Previous term × n + n2 { putting n = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 respectively }
    Second term = 3 × 1 + 12 = 3 + 1 = 4 ;
    Third term = 4 × 2 + 22 = 8 + 4 = 12

    Correct Option: C

    From above given series , we can see that
    Next term = Previous term × n + n2 { putting n = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 respectively }
    Second term = 3 × 1 + 12 = 3 + 1 = 4 ;
    Third term = 4 × 2 + 22 = 8 + 4 = 12 ;
    Fourth term = 12 × 3 + 32 = 36 + 9 = 45 ;
    Fifth term = 45 × 4 + 42 = 132 + 16 = 190; 190 is wrong. It should be 196. Here, 190 is the wrong number.
    Sixth term = 196 × 5 + 52 = 980 + 25 = 1005 ;
    Seventh term = 1005 × 6 + 62 = 6030 + 36 = 6066 .
    New series is
    First term = 190 × 1 + 12 = 192;
    Second term = 190 × 2 + 22 = 384.
    Hence Second term of new series is 384 .

    On the basis of given figure in above question, we can say that
    In each subsequent figure one curve is deleted and the shaded parts of square move two sectors in clockwise direction.

    Correct Option: B

    On the basis of given figure in above question, we can say that
    In each subsequent figure one curve is deleted and the shaded parts of square move two sectors in clockwise direction.
    Therefore , figure ( 2 ) will come on the place of ? in question figure .As shown in answer figures .



Direction: In the following questions two sets of pictures (Question Figure and Answer Figure) are given. In the Question Figure set, a series pattern (a), (b), (c), and (d) is given, you have to find out which picture from 1, 2, 3, and 4 of Answer Figure will continue the pattern.

  1. Find out the next series from the Answer Figure that follows the sequence of the Question Figure.
