Number Series Completion
Pattern - series is multiplied or divide by certain constant.Exp: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, ?, 54
Hint:
× 2, × 3/2, × 2, × 3/2, ×2,.....
Pattern : When a series follows the following pattern add, multiply- add, multiply- add,.... or add, substract- add, substract- add,.... etc.
Ex: 4, 6, 12, 14, 28, 30, .....
Hint:
+2, ×2, +2, ×2, +2, ×2
Pattern : Series with Square or cube or square root or cube root of the number.
Ex: 1, 9, 25, 49, ?, 121
*Pattern: TRIANGULAR NUMBER
When any number series is in the form a, a + (a +1), a+ (a+1)+ (a+2), a + (a+1)+ (a+2) + (a+3), .........,
i.e. Consecutive Gap: (a +1), (a+2), (a+3),
(if a=1), nth term of the series be [n(n+1)/2]
Ex: 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, ...... find the 15th term of the series?
Ans (for n=15) 15th term = 151
Pattern:- Product of digits and summation with any constant, gives next number of the series.
Ex: 69, 55, 26, 13, 5 [Find the Wrong term of the Series]
Hint:
(6 × 9 ) + 1 = 55, (5 × 5) + 1 = 26, (2 × 6 ) + 1 = 13, (1 × 3) + 1 = 4.0
Pattern:- Percentage increasing and decreasing pattern
Ex: 105, 94.5, 103.95, 93.56, ..?...
Hint:
105 – 10% of 105 = 94.5, 94.5 + 10% of 94.5 = 103.95
Pattern:- Division or Multiplication with increasing and decreasing numbers.
Ex: 51975, 9450, 2100, 600, 240, 160 ?
Hint:
÷5.5, ÷4.5, ÷3.5, ÷2.5, ÷1.5, ÷0.5
Ex: 16, 12, 18, 40.5, 121.5, 455.625 ?
Hint:
16 × 0.75 = 12,
12 × 1.5 (i.e 0.75 + 0.75 = 1.5) = 18
18 × 2.25 (i.e 1.5 + 0.75 = 2.25) = 40.5
40.5 × 3 (i.e 2.25+ 0.75) = 121.5,

Important Ques
4). 3, 15, ?, 63, 99, 143
>See if the numbers are near to any square number
(2x2 – 1), (4x4 – 1),.......... (8x8 – 1), (10x10 – 1), (12x12 – 1).
2). 1, 1, 2, 6, 24, ?, 720
×1, ×2, ×3, ×4, .........
3). 6, 13, 28, 59, ?
×2 + 1, × 2 +2, × 2 + 3,.......
5). 5760, 960, ?, 48, 16, 8
÷ 6, ÷ 5, ÷ 4,÷ 3, ÷ 2.
1). 1, 5, 13, 25, 41, ?
Use gap method. (+ 4, + 8, + 12,+ 16, ..........)
