Second element in every pair is third to the right of first element except 27.

6 6 8 5 5 3 7 3 7 2 5 9 8 7 8 1 5 5 4

There is a gap of two digits in every number like, there are 5 and 5 between 8 and 3 in 83.

Similarly, there are 7 and 2 between 3 and 5 in 35 and 7 and 8 between 8 and 1 in 81. But there are 5, 8, 8, and 7 between 2 and 7 in 27.

Hence, 27 does not belong to the group.

Comprehension:

Directions: Answer the questions based on the information given below:

378 256 431 875 762

If first and third digits of the given numbers are subtracted then which of the following number will give the second highest resultant?

  1. 875
  2. 378
  3. 762
  4. 431
  5. 256

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 5 : 256

Number Arrangement Question 8 Detailed Solution

Given numbers: 378 256 431 875 762

On subtracting first and third digits,

378 = 8 – 3 = 5

256 = 6 – 2 = 4

431 = 4 – 1 = 3

875 = 8 – 5 = 3

762 = 7 – 2 = 5

Hence, 4 is the second highest resultant which is obtained from 256.

If 2 is added to each odd digit and 1 is subtracted from each even digit in the number 94387251, what will be the sum of the first, fifth and last digits in the new number thus formed?

The logic followed here is:

Condition to be checked:

i) The number 8 not followed by the number 4 but is preceded by the number 5 are given below:-

5 → 8 → Not 4 (4)

5 8 2 5 8 1 5 8 3 4 3 5 6 5 4 5 8 6 5 8 4 5 8

So, there are 5 pairs in which the number 8 is not followed by the number 4 but is preceded by the number 5.

Hence, "option 1" is the correct answer.

Mistake Points 

Immediately preceded by means immediately before or to come just before.

Immediately followed by means immediately after or to come just after.
