How To Solve Coding And Number Series Quickly
Concept of Coding And Number Series:-
In this Page How to Solve Coding and Number Series Questions Quickly is given.
Letter-Number Coding is a mark scoring section of the reasoning questions. In competitive examinations reasoning contain a most important part. If you achieve good marks in reasoning you will get a good score and rank in competitive examinations.
Types of Number Series:
1. Perfect Square Series:
Example– 324 = 18^{2} , 361 = 19^{2}, 400 = 20^{2}, 441 = 21^{2}, 484 = 22^{2}
2. Perfect Cube Series:
Example– 8^{3}=512, 9^{3}=729, 10^{3}=1000, 11^{3}=1331
3. Geometric Series:
Example- 4\times 5=20,20 \times 5=100,100\times 5=500,500 \times 5=2500
4. Arithmetic Series:
Example- 4,8,12,16,20,24,28
The common difference is constant that is 4.
5. Two Stage type Series:
Example-1, 3, 6, 10, 15…
3 – 1 = 2, 6 – 3 = 3, 10 – 6 = 4, 15 – 10 = 5….
Now, we get an arithmetic sequence 2, 3, 4, 5
6. Mixed Series:
Example-10, 22, 46, 94, 190,?
10\times2 = 20 +2 = 22,22 \times 2 = 44 + 2 = 46,46 \times 2 = 92 + 2 = 94,94 \times 2 = 188 + 2 = 190,190 \times 2 = 380 + 2 = 382.
So the missing number is 382.
7. Arithmetic-Geometric Series:
Example- 1, 4, 8, 11, 22, 25, ?
Series Type +3 , \times2 ({\text{i.e Arithmetic and Geometric Mixing}})(e.g: 1+3=4;4\times 2=8)
8. Twin/Alternate series:
Example- 3, 4, 8, 10, 13, 16 ? ?
Sol: As we can see, there are two series formed
Series 1 : 3, 8, 13 with a common difference of 5
Series 2 : 4, 10, 16 with a common difference of 6
So, the next two terms of the series should be 18 & 22 respectively.
How to Solve Coding and Number Series Questions Quickly :
Question 1:
If in a certain language A is coded as 1, B is coded as 2, and so on, how is B I D D I C coded in that code?
Option:
A) 294493
B) 284563
C) 375582
D) 394492
Answer: A
Explanation:
As given the letters are coded as:
A B C D E F G H I
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
So, in B I D D I C, B is coded as 2, I as 9, D as 4, and C as 3. Thus, B I D D I C is coded as 294493.
Question 2:
If D is coded as 4 and C O V E R is coded as 63, then BASIS will be coded as?
Option:
A) 54
B) 55
C) 49
D) 50
Answer: D
Explanation:
It is clear that the code is arrange in this mannerA = 1. B = 2, C = 3 … so on
so that C O V E R is coded as [C+O+V+E+R]
⇒ 3 + 15 + 22 + 5 + 18 = 63.
Now B A S I S is coded as [ B+A+S+I+S]
⇒2 + 1 + 19 + 9 + 19 = 50.
Question 3:
bcd’ is coded as ‘def’ then ‘True’ is coded as……….
Options:
A) Hynx
B) Vrwx
C) Zbyw
D) Vtwg
Answer: D
Explanation:
b – d (+2)
c – e (+2)
d – f (+2)
+2 letters are considered in this code.
True – Vtwg
Question 4:
In a certain code ‘MONARCHY’ is written as ‘NPOBSDIZ’. How will ‘STANDARD’ be written as in that code?
Options:
A) TUBOEBSE
B) TVBSHBNW
C) WEHJSOLX
D) GHWQMKLJ
Answer: A
Explanation:
Each letter of MONARCHY is replaced by the next letter as per the alphabet
M+ 1 = N
O+ 1 = P
N+ 1 = O
A+ 1 = B
R+ 1 = S
C + 1= D
H+ 1 = I
Y+ 1 = Z
Similarly, STANDARD is written as TUBOEBSE
Question 5:
If the word is KEYBOARD written as LGBFTGYL then, what will be the code for INTERNET ?
A)JPWHUPHW
B)JPHWIUYTP
C)JPWIWTLB
D)None of the above
Explanation:
The 1st, 2nd, 3rd ………. And so on alphabet of the word are moved 1, 2, 3….. Steps forward respectively.
KEYBOARD will be coded as LGBFTGYL
INTERNET will be written as JPWIWTLB
