In the Shift-4 held on 4 August 2019, there were near about 18 questions on Data Interpretation and 11
from Arithmetic Word Problems. The ration or the weightage may differ slightly from one shift to another
but certainly these are the most important topics for IBPS RRB PO Prelims Exam.
The following are the types of Puzzles and Seating Arrangements most frequently asked in IBPS RRB PO
Prelims Exam- Based on previous years’ exam analysis:
Linear Uncertain Number of people
Circular Seating Arrangement
Linear Seating Arrangement with certain no. on people
Parallel Rows Seating Arrangement
Random Arrangement Puzzle
Day Based Puzzle
Box Based Puzzle
Order-Ranking or Comparison based puzzle
Month Based Puzzle
Square Seating Arrangement
If we consider the shift-I of 18th August 2019, there were questions from missing number series and were
moderate in nature. Arithmetic is another topic that carries a good weightage and we can see that
almost 7 questions of moderate level were asked. Similarly in 2018, There were again 5 questions from
wrong number series and around 10 questions from Arithmetic part.
Q. For IBPS RRB is there any interview round after qualifying both Prelims and Mains exam?
No, the selection is done on the basis of marks in prelims and mains

Solutions
1. (d);Let present age of Anshu and her mother be 𝑥 & on solving, 𝑥 = 27 and 𝑦 = 54
𝑦 years respectively. ∴ Required ratio =

15. (d);Required average = = 505
5 26. (b);I. x² - 36 = 0
16. (c); 1+𝟏 = 𝟐
𝟑 (x + 6) (x - 6) = 0 ⇒ x = 6, -6
2+𝟐𝟐 = 𝟔 II. y2 +13y +42 = 0
6+𝟑𝟑 = 𝟑𝟑 y² +7y +6y +42 =0
33+𝟒𝟐 = 𝟒𝟗 y(y +7) + 6 (y +7) = 0
49+𝟓𝟑 = 𝟏𝟕𝟒 (y +6) (y + 7) = 0 ⇒ y = -6, -7
So, 174+𝟔𝟐 = 𝟐𝟏𝟎 ∴𝐱≥𝐲
