Number Arrangement Question 1:

 If 2 is added to each even digit and 1 is subtracted from each odd digit in the number 415796, what will be the sum of the digits which are fifth from the left and first from the right in the new number thus formed?

  1. 12
  2. 16
  3. 14
  4. 10

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : 16

Number Arrangement Question 1 Detailed Solution

Given number: 415796

According to the question, 

Number given 4 1 5 7 9 6

Odd digit → (-1)

Even digit → (+2)

(+2) (-1) (-1) (-1) (-1) (+2)
Resultant number 6 0 4 6 8 8

So, sum of the digits which are fifth from the left and first from the right in the new number thus formed → 6 0 4 6 8 8  (8 + 8) = 16

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

Number Arrangement Question 2:

This question is based on the five, three-digit numbers given below.
 (Left) 412 366 307 241 667 (Right)
 (Example: 697 – First digit = 6, second digit = 9 and third digit = 7)
 (NOTE: All operations to be done from left to right.)
 What will be the resultant if the first digit of the highest number is subtracted from the
 third digit of the lowest number?

  1. -6
  2. -4
  3. -5
  4. -2

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : -5

Number Arrangement Question 2 Detailed Solution

Given number: (Left) 412 366 307 241 667 (Right)

According to the question, 

Number given 412 366 307 241 667
Arranged in ascending order 241 307 366 412 667

First digit of the highest number 667 → 6

Third digit of the lowest number → 241 → 1

So, the first digit of the highest number is subtracted from the third digit of the lowest number → (1 - 6) -5

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

Number Arrangement Question 3:

Each of the digits in the number 8569142 is arranged in the descending order from left to right. The position(s) of how many digits will remain unchanged in the new numbe thus formed as compared to that in the original number?

  1.  One
  2. Three
  3. Two
  4.  Four

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 :  One

Number Arrangement Question 3 Detailed Solution

Given number: '8569142'

Let's list the digits of the original number and their positions:

Position 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th
Original Number 8 5 6 9 1 4 2
New Number (Descending) 9 8 6 5 4 2 1

Only one digit, "6", remains in the same position.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Number Arrangement Question 4:

This question is based on the five, three-digit numbers given below.
(Left) 910 316 525 204 303 (Right)
(Example: 697 – First digit = 6, second digit = 9 and third digit = 7)
 (NOTE: All operations to be done from left to right.)
 What will be the resultant if the first digit of the highest number is added to the second
 digit of the lowest number?

  1. 8
  2. 9
  3. 10
  4. 12

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : 9

Number Arrangement Question 4 Detailed Solution

Given numbers:

910 316 525 204 303

Comparing all numbers, the highest number is 910.

First digit of the highest number = 9

Comparing all numbers, the lowest number is 204.

Second digit of the lowest number = 0

Now,

Add the first digit of the highest number to the second digit of the lowest number:

→ 9 + 0 = 9

The correct answer is "9".

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Number Arrangement Question 5:

Each of the digits in the number 8142769 is arranged in the ascending order from left to right. Which of the following digits will be fourth from the left in the new number thus formed?

  1. 4
  2. 6
  3. 8
  4. 2

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : 6

Number Arrangement Question 5 Detailed Solution

Given series: 8142769

According to the question, each of the digits in the given number is arranged in the ascending order from left to right.

8142769 → 1246789

So, digit that will be fourth from the left in the new number thus formed is → 1246789 → 6

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

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.

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

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.

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.
