Number series MCQs

Solve the number series questions given below:

2 10 42 170 ? 2730 10922

(a) 588

(b) 658

(c) 596

(d) 682

(e) None of these

Solution: (d)

The pattern of the series is as follows:

\(\displaystyle 2\times 4+2=10\)

\(\displaystyle 10\times 4+2=42\)

\(\displaystyle 42\times 4+2=170\)

\(\displaystyle 170\times 4+2=682\)


600 519 ? 406 370 345 329

(a) 435

(b) 455

(c) 425

(d) 445

(e) None of these

Solution: (b)

The pattern of the series is as follows:

\(\displaystyle 600-{{9}^{2}}=600-81=519\)

\(\displaystyle 519-{{8}^{2}}=519-64=455\)

\(\displaystyle 455-{{7}^{2}}=455-49=406\)

\(\displaystyle 406-{{6}^{2}}=406-36=370\)


2 16 112 672 3360 13440 ?

(a) 3430

(b) 3340

(c) 40320

(d) 43240

(e) None of these

Solution: (c)

\(\displaystyle 2\times 8=16\)

\(\displaystyle 16\times 7=112\)

\(\displaystyle 112\times 6=672\)

\(\displaystyle 672\times 5=3360\)

\(\displaystyle 3360\times 4=13440\)

\(\displaystyle 13440\times 3=40320\)

? = 40320                 


4000 2000 1000 500 250 125 ?

(a) 80

(b) 65

(c) 62.5

(d) 83.5

(e) None of these

Solution: (c)

\(\displaystyle 4000\div 2=2000\)

\(\displaystyle 2000\div 2=1000\)

\(\displaystyle 1000\div 2=500\)

\(\displaystyle 500\div 2=250\)

\(\displaystyle 250\div 2=125\)

\(\displaystyle 125\div 2=62.5\)

? = 62.5


45 57 81 117 165 ?

(a) 235

(b) 215

(c) 205

(d) 245

(e) 225

Solution: (e)

\(\displaystyle 45+1\times 12=45+12=57\)

\(\displaystyle 57+2\times 12=57+24=81\)

\(\displaystyle 81+3\times 12=81+36=117\)

\(\displaystyle 117+4\times 12=117+48=165\)

\(\displaystyle 165+5\times 12=165+60=225\)
