 Numerical Ability

The Numerical Ability section of the HDFC Bank PO exam 2025 consists of a variety of topics that assess quantitative reasoning and arithmetic skills. To perform well in this section, candidates must practice regularly and focus on different types of questions. The topics included in the Numerical Ability section are:

Simplification and Approximation

Let us understand with example

The simplification questions are asked in two ways:

• Missing numbers – You have to find the missing number in a given situation An 300 – ___ + 120 = 6 × 40 + 250
• Now, let’s solve for the blank:
• Step 1: Solve the right-hand side (RHS)
• Step 2: Rearrange the left-hand side (LHS)
• Step 3: Simplify
• Step 4: Solve for 
• So, the missing number is -70.
• Simplifying the equation –  The second way in which the simplification questions may be asked is the direct way of giving an equation and solving it to find the answer. For example: 252 – 225 + 100 = ?. In such questions, candidates have to answer what comes in place of the question mark (?)

• Number Series

Example – 3, 8, 18, 38, 78, ?
