Numbers of the type 25  + 1 and 25  – 1 will
have same colour. Similarly numbers of the type
25 ± 2, 25 ± 3, 25 ± 4, …, 25 + 12 will have

26. Answer (05) nearly the pattern of 6 numbers is being repeated

 ab | 10a + b (Clearly a  b) again and again.
a35 = a5 = –a2 = – 6
10a b
Let I  a2 = 6
ab
S100 = S200
b I. a 1  a101 + a102 + … + a200 = 0
 a a|b
10  a101 + a102 + a103 + a104 = 0
So, a = 1, 2, 3 or 4 only  a5 + a6 + a1 + a2 = 0
 –a2 – a3 + a1 + a2 = 0
10 b
When a = 1, I  b = 1, 2 or 5
b  a1 = a3
 2a1 = a2
20 b
When a 2, I b=4  a1 = 3
2b
Sum of the sequence = a1 + a2 + … + a200 = a1
30 b + a2 = 9
When a 3, I b=6

Hence only 11, 12, 15, 24 and 36 have required
properly. 11 21 ..... 91
27. Answer (53) 12 22 .... 92
The unit digit combination for (a, b) may be 13 23 .... 93
   in this grid all numbers below
(1, 6), (2, 3), (2, 8), (3, 2), (4, 4), (4, 9), (6, 6),
(6, 1), (7, 8), (8, 2), (8, 7), (9, 4) 19 29 .... 99

Number of ordered pairs (a, b); the diagonal are sorted numbers

10 9 9 2 9 8 So, number of two digit sorted numbers

N 53 9

28. Answer (40) 2
 a and b are non-zero digits. C is either O or Similarly;
5
Case-I 122 132 ..... 192
123 133 .... 193
235 245 .... 194
   all numbers below the
129 139 .... 199
b is unique in all cases
diagonal are sorted numbers.
Total possible numbers = 40
29. Answer (09)
233 243 ..... 293
Let the first two numbers be a1 and a2 then a3 =
234 244 .... 294
a2 – a1, a4 = a3 – a2 = – a1
235 245 .... 295
a5 = a4 – a3 = – a2, a6 = a5 – a4 = – a3, a7 = a6 – all numbers below the
  
a5 = –a4 = a1
239 249 .... 999
So, the sequence is a1, a2, a3, –a1, –a2, –a3, a1, a2,
a3, … diagonal are sorted numbers.

So number of three digits sorted numbers = ?

= 84
Total sorted number till three digits = 120
Next numbers in the sequence will be 1234,
1235, 1236, 1237, 1238
So, a = 1238 = 2 × 619
