At exactly what time past 4:00 will the minute and hour hands of an accurate working clock be precisely perpendicular to each other for the first time?
Choose the correct choice from the following:
A) 20 13/21 minutes past 7:00 B) 20 13/17 minutes past 7:00 C) 21 3/23 minutes past 7:00 D) 21 9/11 minutes past 4:00 E) 22 4/9 minutes past 7:00

Solution: 5.5 is the angle between minute n hour, this is what I was taught...so shouldn't it be solve by dividing 90 with 5.5?   That would have been the case if your initial difference between the hour and the minute hand was = 0 degrees or in other words, both minute and hour hands were at the same location. But as per the question, you are asked for time AFTER 4:00. At 4:00, the angle between the hour and the minute hand is 210 degrees. you need to take this into account as well.   So in order for the difference to decrease to 90 degrees, the minute hand must eat away this difference of   210-90= 
  210-90 = 120
120 degree at the rate of 5.5 degrees per minute ---> 120/5.5= 21 9/11 minutes.   Thus, 21 9/11 minutes past 4:00 is the correct answer.

How many positive integers less than 5,000 are evenly divisible by neither 15 nor 22?  Choose the most appropriate option:	A) 4,514	B) 4,475	C) 4,521	D) 4,428	E) 4,349

Solution: integers less than 5000 divisible by 15 5000/15 =333.something , so 333   integers less than 5000 divisible by 22 5000/22 = 238.## , so 238   we have double counted some, so take LCM of 15 and 22 =105 and divide by 5000, we get 47. so all numbers divisible by 15 and 22 = 333 +238 -47= 
333 +238 -47 = 524
524   now subtract that from 4999. 4999- 524= 4514 answer 4,514.

The percentage profit earned by selling an article for Rs. 1920 is equal to the percentage loss incurred by selling the same article for Rs. 1280. At what price should the article be sold to make 40% profit?  Choose the correct choice from the following options:
A) 2000  B) 2778  C) 2299  D) 2778  E) 2240

Solution: Let C.P. be Rs. x.   Then, (1920 - x)/x * 100 = (x - 1280)/x * 100   1920 - x = x - 1280   2x = 3200 => x = 1600   Required S.P. = 140 % of Rs. 1600 = 140/100 * 1600 = Rs. 2240.   Answer:2240
Answer: E
97 students take part in a test and the median score is 85. Which of the following descriptions must be correct?
I.At most 49 students’ score are equal to or more than 86.
II. At least 49 students’ score are less than 85.
III. At least 49 students’ score are equal to or more than 85.	Choose the most appropriate option:
A) I
B) II
C) III
D) III
E) IIII

Solution: If we order the scores increasingly, then on the 49th place we have the score of 85. There must be 48 scores (those on the right of the 85 score) greater or equal to 85. So, I is necessarily correct.   The scores on the left of the 49th place, all have to be equal or less than 85. Since we can have the extreme case of all the scores 85, neither II, nor III is correct. The question asks for descriptions thatmustbe correct.   Answer III.
Answer: C
The ‘moving walkway’ is a 300-foot long walkway consisting of a conveyor belt that moves continuously at 3 feet per second. When Bill steps on the walkway, a group of people that are also on the walkway stands 120 feet in front of him. He walks toward the group at a rate of 3 feet per second. Once Bill reaches the group of people, he stops walking and stands with them until the walkway ends. What is Bill’s average rate Q of movement for his trip along the moving walkway? Choose the correct choice from the following answers
A) 2 feet per second  B) 2.5 feet per second  C) 3 feet per second  D) 4 feet per second  E) 5 feet per second

Solution: A, B, and C don't make ANY sense! we know for some time...(a majority of the 300ft) Bill will walk at a pace of 6ft per second...and then at some later time he will stop and move at 3 ft per second... The average MUST bebetween3-6 ft per second or the Earth is FLAT!!!.   So we are down to DE, D doesn't make sense on a weighted averages level because we know when Bill gets on the walkway the patrons are already 40% of the way down the 300ft walkway AND they are still moving at half the rate of Bill!! So for Bill to average 4 ft per second he would have had to spend a majority of the 300 ft at 3ft per second because 4 is much closer (when you factor in the size of the values we're dealing with 2 is double 1) to 3 than to 6. We know from the information that isn't possible. Billmust havespent the majority of his time at 6 ft Q per second before he stopped walking. That leaves only answer 5 feet per second as plausible.
