    This document provides steps to solve number series problems and examples of different types of number series. It discusses observing patterns in numbers and differences, and types of series including prime numbers, differences, multiplication, division, squares, cubes, and combinations of operations. Sixteen types of series are defined with examples such as squares (n2), cubes (n3), squares minus one (n2-1), and combinations of operations like cubes plus squares (n3+n2).

    How to solve number series problems easily By Tricks

    Generally, two kinds of series are asked in the examination. One is based
    on numbers and the other based on alphabets.
    Step 1: Observer are there any familier numbers in the given series.
    Familier numbers are primes numbers, perfect squares, cubes ... which are
    easy to identify.
    Step 2: Calculate the differences between the numbers. Observe the
    pattern in the differences. If the differences are growing rapidly it might
    be a square series, cube series, or multiplicative series. If the numbers
    are growing slowly it is an addition or substration series.
    If the differences are not having any pattern then
    1. It might be a double or triple series. Here every alternate number or
    every 3rd number form a series
    2. It might be a sum or average series. Here sum of two consecutive
    numbers gives 3rd number. or average of first two numbers give next
    number
    Step 3: Sometimes number will be multiplied and will be added another
    number So we need to check those patterns
    TYPES :
    I. Prime number Series :
    Example (1) : 2,3,5,7,11,13, ...........
    Answer : The given series is prime number series . The next prime
    number is 17.
    Example (2) :2,5,11,17,23,...........41.
    Answer: The prime numbers are written alternately.
    II. Difference Series :
    Example (1): 2,5,8,11,14,17,...........,23.
    Answer: The difference between the numbers is 3. (17+3 = 20)
    Example (2): 45,38,31,24,17,...........,3.
    Answer: The difference between the numbers is 7. (177=10).III. Multiplication Series:
    Example (1) : 2,6,18,54,162,.........,1458.
    Answer: The numbers are multiplied by 3 to get next number. (162x3 =
    486).
    Example: (2) : 3,12,48,192,............,3072.
    Answer : The numbers are multiplied by 4 to get the next number. (192x4
    =768).
    IV. Division Series:
    Example (1): 720, 120, 24, .........,2,1
    Answer: 720/6=120, 120/5=24, 24/4=6, 6/3=2, 2/2=1.

    Example (2) : 32, 48, 72, 108, .........., 243.


    Answer: 2. Number x 3/2= next number. 32x3/2=48, 48x3/2=72,
    72x3/2=108, 108x3/2=162.
    V. n2 Series:
    Example(1) : 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, ......., 49
    Answer: The series is 12, 22, 32, 42, 52, .... The next number is 62=36;
    Example (2) : 0, 4, 16, 36, 64, ........ 144.
    Answer :The series is 02, 22, 42, 62, etc. The next number is 102=100.
    VI. n21 Series :
    Example : 0, 3, 8, 15, 24,35, 48, ..........,
    Answer : The series is 12-1, 22-1, 32-1 etc. The next number is 82-1=63.
    Another logic : Difference between numbers is 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 etc. The
    next number is (48+15=63).
    VII.n2+1 Series :
    Example : 2, 5, 10, 17, 26, 37, .........., 65.
    Answer : The series is 12+1, 22+1, 32+1 etc. The next number is
    72+1=50.
    IX. n3 Series :
    Example : 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216, ......... .
    Answer : The series is 13, 23, 33, etc. The missing number is 73=343.
    X. n3+n Series :
    Example : 2, 9, 28, 65, 126, 217, 344, ...........
    Answer : The series is 13+1, 23+1, 33+1, etc. The missing number is
    83+1=513.
    XI. n31 Series :
    Example : 0, 7, 26, 63, 124, ............, 342.
    Answer: The series is 13-1, 23-1, 33-1 etc The missing number is 631=215.
    XII. n3+n Series :
    Example : 2, 10, 30, 68, 130, .............., 350.
    Answer : The series is 13+1, 23+2, 33+3 etc The missing number is
    63+6=222.
    XIII. n3n Series :
    Example :0, 6, 24, 60, 120, 210, ..............,
    Answer : The series is 13-1, 23-2, 33-3, etc. The missing number is 737=336.
    Another Logic : The series is 0x1x2, 1x2x3, 2x3x4, etc. The missing
    number is 6x7x8=336.
    XIV. n3+n2 Series :
    Example : 2, 12, 36, 80, 150, ............,

    Answer: The series is 13+12,23+22,33+32etc. The missing number is


    63+62=252
    XV. n3n2 Series:
    Example: 0,4,18,48,100,.................,
    Answer : The series is 13-12,23-22,33-32 etc. The missing number is 6362=180
    XVI. xy, x+y Series:
    Example: 48,12,76,13,54,9,32,...............,
    Answer :2. 4+8=12, 7+6=13, 5+4=9 .: 3+2=5.
