Numerical Ability For AFCAT

I am doing preparation of Air Force Common Admission Test (AFCAT) and want to start my preparation firstly from Numerical Ability section so can you please suggest me the names of some best books of Numerical Ability section of AFCAT exam ?

Can you provide me some Numerical Ability questions for preparation of AFCAT (Air Force Common Admission Test) Examination?
