13 56 46 23 16 34 25 19 78 85 86 24 29 73 94 52 64 63

What will be the difference between the sum of the first half and second half of the above series?

A310

B260

C290

D315

Answer:

B. 260

Read Explanation:

The difference between the sum of the first half and the second half of the series is 260.

  1. Count the Total Numbers:
    The series consists of 18 numbers in total.

    • First Half (first 9 numbers): 13, 56, 46, 23, 16, 34, 25, 19, 78

    • Second Half (last 9 numbers): 85, 86, 24, 29, 73, 94, 52, 64, 63

  2. Calculate the Sum of the First Half:
    13+56+46+23+16+34+25+19+78=31013 + 56 + 46 + 23 + 16 + 34 + 25 + 19 + 78 = 310

  3. Calculate the Sum of the Second Half:
    85+86+24+29+73+94+52+64+63=57085 + 86 + 24 + 29 + 73 + 94 + 52 + 64 + 63 = 570

  4. Find the Difference:
    570−310=260570 - 310 = 260

Conditions:

  • (i) If the first element is a symbol and the last, a number, the codes for these two are to be interchanged.

  • (ii) If the first element is an odd number and the last, an even number, the first and last elements are to be coded as $\emptyset$.

  • (iii) If both second and third elements are either numbers or symbols, the third element is to be coded as the code for the second element.
