Inserting Missing Number Questions and Answers for Bank Exams Pdf
Question: 1
In each of the following questions, a matrix of certain characters is
given. These characters follow a certain trend, row wise or column
wise. Find out this trend and choose the missing character
accordingly.
(A) 16
(B) 73
(C) 76
(D) 94
Ans: D
Clearly, (1st row)2 + (2nd row)2 + (3rd row)2 = 4th row.
Thus, in the first column, 42 + 22 + 12 = 21.
In the second column, 52 + 32 + 82 = 98.
In the third column, missing number = 62 + 72 + 32 = 36+49+9 = 94.
Question: 2
Find the missing character in each of the following questions.
(A) 201
(B) 731
(C) 1625
(D) 2031
Ans: D
Clearly, we have (3 x 5) + 1 = 16, (16 x 5) + 1 = 81, (81 x 5) + 1 = 406.
So, missing number = (406 x 5) + 1 = 2031.
Question: 3
Find the missing character in each of the following questions.
(A) 66
(B) 68
(C) 70
(D) 72
Ans: C
Clearly, we have 7 x 2 + 2 = 16; 16 x 2 + 2 = 34 and so on.
So, missing number = 34 x 2 + 2 = 70.
Question: 4
In each of the following questions, a matrix of certain characters is
given. These characters follow a certain trend, row wise or column
wise. Find out this trend and choose the missing character
accordingly.
(A) 11
(B) 22
(C) 33
(D) 44
Ans: B
In the first row, (42 - 38) x 11 = 44.
In the second row, (28 - 23) x 11 = 55.
In the third row, missing number = (39 - 37) x 11 = 2 x 11 = 22.
Question: 5
In each of the following questions, a matrix of certain characters is
given. These characters follow a certain trend, row wise or column
wise. Find out this trend and choose the missing character
accordingly.
(A) 11
(B) 13
(C) 15
(D) 16
Ans: D
In the first column, 17 - 11 = 25 - 19 = 6.
In the second column, 12 - 6 = 34 - 28 = 6.
Let the missing number in the third column be x.
Then, x - 8 = 19 - 11 = 8 or x = 16.
