HOW TO SOLVE NUMBER SERIES PROBLEMS EASILY
By: Tricks
(Hope it will help👍😊)
Generally, two kinds of series are asked in the examination. One is based on numbers and the
other based on alphabets.
Step 1: Observe if there are any familiar numbers in the given series. Familiar numbers are
PRIME NUMBERS, PERFECT SQUARES, CUBE 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 subtraction 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 OF NUMBER SERIES
👉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. (17-7=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. N^2 SERIES:
✅Example(1) : 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, ......., 49
Answer: The series is 1^2, 2^2, 3^2, 4^2, 5^2, .... The next number is 6^2=36;
✅Example (2) : 0, 4, 16, 36, 64, ........ 144.
Answer :The series is 0^2, 2^2, 4^2, 6^2, etc. The next number is 10^2=100.
---
👉VI. N^2-1 SERIES :
✅Example : 0, 3, 8, 15, 24,35, 48, ..........,
Answer : The series is 1^2-1, 2^2-1, 3^2-1 etc. The next number is 8^2-1=63.
Another logic : Difference between numbers is 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 etc. The next number is
(48+15=63).
---
👉VII. N^2+1 SERIES:
✅Example : 2, 5, 10, 17, 26, 37, .........., 65.
Answer : The series is 1^2+1, 2^2+1, 3^2+1 etc. The next number is 7^2+1=50.
VIII. n2+n Series (or) n2−n Series :
✅Example : 2, 6, 12, 20, ............, 42.
Answer : The series is 1^2+1, 2^2+2, 3^2+3, 4^2+4 etc. The next number = 5^2+5=30.
Another Logic : The series is 1x2, 2x3, 3x4, 4x5, The next number is 5x6=30.
Another Logic : The series is 2^2-2, 3^2-3, 4^2-4, 5^2-5, The next number is 6^2-6=30.
---
👉IX. N^3 SERIES:
✅Example : 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216, ......... .
Answer : The series is 1^3, 2^3, 3^3, etc. The missing number is 7^3=343.
---
👉X. N^3+1 SERIES:
✅Example : 2, 9, 28, 65, 126, 217, 344, ...........
Answer : The series is 1^3+1, 2^3+1, 3^3+1, etc. The missing number is 8^3+1=513.
---
👉XI. N^3-1 SERIES:
✅Example : 0, 7, 26, 63, 124, ............, 342.
Answer: The series is 1^3-1, 2^3-1, 3^3-1 etc The missing number is 6^3-1=215.
---
👉XII. N^3+N SERIES:
✅Example : 2, 10, 30, 68, 130, .............., 350.
Answer : The series is 1^3+1, 2^3+2, 3^3+3 etc The missing number is 6^3+6=222.
---
👉XIII. N^3-N SERIES:
✅Example :0, 6, 24, 60, 120, 210, ..............,
Answer : The series is 1^3-1, 2^3-2, 3^3-3, etc. The missing number is 7^3-7=336.
Another Logic : The series is 0x1x2, 1x2x3, 2x3x4, etc. The missing number is 6x7x8=336.
