For a certain set, the value range of its members is 104.8. A new set is created from the members of the old set as follows: 12 is subtracted from a member of the old set, and the result is divided by 4. The resulting value is a member of the new set. If this operation is done for each member of the old set, what is the range of values of the members of the new set?  Choose the correct choice from the following answers
A) 23.2	B) 26.2	C) 52.4	D) 98.4	E) 104.8

Solution: Let x and z be the smallest and largest of the original set, respectively.   z - x = 104.8   The smallest and largest members of the new set will be (x-12) / 4 and (z-12) / 4.   Then the range is (z-12) / 4 - (x-12) / 4 = (z-x) / 4 = 104.8 / 4= 
104.8 / 4 = 26.2
26.2   The answer is 26.2.

For any integer p, *p is equal to the product of all the integers between 1 and p, inclusive. How many prime numbers are there between *4 + 3 and *4 + 4, inclusive?  Choose the correct answer.
A) None B) One C) Two D) Three E) Four

Solution: Generally *p or p! will be divisible by ALL numbers from 1 to p. Therefore, *4 would be divisible by all numbers from 1 to 4.   => *4+3 would give me a number which is a multiple of 3 and therefore divisible (since *4 is divisible by 3)   In fact adding anyprimenumber between 1 to 4 to *4 will definitely be divisible.   So the answer is none (A)!   Supposing if the question had asked for prime numbers between *4 + 3 and *4 + 11 then the answer would be 1. For *4 +3 and *4 + 13, it is 2 and so on...   None

On a partly cloudy day, milton decides to walk back from work. When it is sunny, he walks at a speed of s miles/hr (s is an integer) and when it gets cloudy, he increases his speed to (s + 1) miles/hr. If his average speed for the entire distance is 2.8 miles/hr, what fraction of the total distance did he cover while the sun was shining on him?	Pick one:
A) 1/5 B) 1/6 C) 1/4 D) 1/7 E) 1/3

Solution: If s is an integer and we know that the average speed is 2.8, s must be = 2. That meanss+1= 3. This implies that the ratio of time for s=2 is 1/4 of the total time. The formula for distance/rate is D=Rt...so the distance travelled when s=2 is 2t. The distance travelled for s+1=3 is 3*4t or 12t. Therefore, total distance covered while the sun was shining over him is 2/14 = 1/7. Answer: 1/7

A train 125 m long passes a man, running at 5 km/hr in the same direction in which the train is going, in 10 seconds. The speed of the train is? Choose the correct choice from the following:
A) 66
B) 77
C) 88
D) 50
E) 33

Solution: Speed of the train relative to man = (125/10) m/sec = (25/2) m/sec. [(25/2) * (18/5)] km/hr = 45 km/hr. Let the speed of the train be x km/hr. Then, relative speed = (x - 5) km/hr. x - 5 = 45 ==> x = 50 km/hr.Answer: 50

The average monthly income of P and Q is Rs. 2050. The average monthly income of Q and R is Rs. 5250 and the average monthly income of P and R is Rs. 6200. The monthly income of R is: Pick:  A) 5100  B) 4900  C) 9400  D) 1500  E) 3200

Solution: Explanation:   Let P, Q and R represent their respective monthly incomes. Then, we have:   P + Q = (2050 x 2) = 4100 .... (i)   Q + R = (5250 x 2) = 10500 .... (ii)   P + R = (6200 x 2) = 12400 .... (iii)   Adding (i), (ii) and (iii), we get: 2(P + Q + R) = 27000 or P + Q + R = 13500 .... (iv)   Subtracting (i) from (iv), we get P = 9400.   P's monthly income = Rs. 9400.   Answer: 9400

D) 5 minutes, 44.44 seconds
E) 5 minutes, 21.8 seconds

Solution: One approach:   The watch starts to work after Nuria began his running. It means the time should be greater than credited 5 minutes, 44 seconds. The only number is 6 minutes, 10.4 seconds.   Another approach:   11/25 close to 30 second when added to the 5 minutes, 44 seconds, it means it passes 6 minute.   Answer: 6 minutes, 10.4 seconds
Answer: B
Six students are equally divided into 3 groups, then, the three groups were assigned to three different topics. How many different arrangements W are possible?
Choose the correct choice from the following choices:	A) 30	B) 60	C) 90	D) 180	E) 540

Solution: 90 is the number of ways you can assign 3 teams formed out of 12 people to 3 different tasks.   But now you can order the 3 tasks in 3! ways. T1 T2 T3 or T2 T1 T3.... etc etc.   I was confused between 90 and 540 but since question used the wordarrangementsdecided to go with complete arrangements W including the order of tasks.   could you explain the highlighted step... i'm getting 90 = 15 * 3!   suppose the students are numbered 1,2,3,4,5,6 and tasks are X,Y and Z   one of the 15 possible ways of forming teams is 12, 34, 56. these teams can be assigned to 3 tasks in 3! = 6 ways   X--	Y--	Z   12--	34--	56   12--	56--	34   34--	12--	56   34--	56--	12   56--	12--	34   56--	34--	12   so the answer should be 15*6= 
15*6 = 90
90   But now you can fruther decide which task you want to perform first X Y or Z..=90

Answers: A) 12! B) 3!*4!*5! C) 12C3*9C4 D) 12^12 E) 12^14

Solution: SINCE WE SHOUL12^12 FILL ONLY FROM TOP.........12! IS NOT CORRECT   WE HAVE POSSIBILTY OF FILLING ALL 5 FROM C AN12^12 GO TO A,B 0R 1 EACH FROM EACH PILE OR 2..........SO 3!*4!*5! AN12^12 12C3*9C4 ARE ALSO WRONG.REMAINING OPTION IS ........12^12   ANSWER:12^12

3 women and a few men participated in a chess tournament. Each player played two matches with each of the other players. If the number of matches that men played among themselves is 78 more than those they played with the women, how many more men than women participated in the tournament?	Pick
A) 10 B) 11 C) 8 D) 9 E) 5

Solution: Let x be the number of men.   Number of matches men play among themselves is 2*(xC2)   Number of matches men play with women is 2*(3x)   2*(xC2) - 2*(3x) =78   x=13   Difference between men and women is 13-3= 
13-3 = 10

Choose the correct answer: A) 0 B) 1 C) 2 D) 3 E) 4

Solution: The units digit of the exponents of 3 cycle in a group of 4: {3, 9, 7, 1}   87 has the form 4k+3 so the units digit of 43^87 is 7.   The remainder when dividing by 5 is 2.   The answer is 2.
Answer: C
A vessel of capacity 90 litres is fully filled with pure milk. Nine litres of milk is removed from the vessel and replaced with water. Nine litres of the solution thus formed is removed and replaced with water. Find the quantity of pure milk in the final milk solution?
Pick:
A) 72.8 litres B) 72.9 litres C) 74.9 litres D) 72.4 litres E) 72.7 litres

Solution: Let the initial quantity of milk in vessel be T litres.   Let us say y litres of the mixture is taken out and replaced by water for n times, alternatively.   Quantity of milk finally in the vessel is then given by [(T - y)/T]n * T   For the given problem, T = 90, y = 9 and n = 2.   Hence, quantity of milk finally in the vessel   = [(90 - 9)/90]2 (90) = 72.9 litres.   Answer:72.9 litres
Answer: B
Convert the 13/36 m/s into kilometers per hour?
Choose the correct option:
A) 1.7 B) 1.5 C) 1.3 D) 1.1 E) 1.2

Solution: 13/36 m/s = 13/36 * 18/5 = 13/10= 
13/10 = 13/10 = around 1.3

Answer: C
Two letters from the word MYANTKAR are selected at random. What is the probability that at least one of the selected letters is a consonant?
Pick one:
A) 27/28	B) 25/28	C) 29/28	D) 32/28	E) 42/28

Solution: There are 6 consonants and 2 vowels in MYANTKAR .   probability that at least one of the selected letters is a consonant = 1 - (Probability of both vowels)   Probability of both vowels = 2C2/8C2 = 1/28   So,27/28nswer is 1 - 1/28 = 27/28   27/28nswer : 27/28
Answer: A
If 6 (A's capital) = 8 (B's capital) = 10 (C's capital). Then the ratio of their capitals is?  Options:
A) 20:15:17
B) 20:15:19
C) 20:15:12
D) 20:15:18
E) 20:15:23

Solution: 6A = 8B = 10 20:15:12   A:B:20:15:12 = 1/6:1/8:1/10   = 20:15:12   Answer: 20:15:12

Answer: A
If n is a prime number greater than 5, what is the remainder when n^2 is divided by 23?	Select the correct option:	A) 0	B) 1	C) 2	D) 3	E) 5

Solution: There are several algebraic ways to solve this question including the one under the spoiler. But the easiest way is as follows:since we can not have two correct answersjust pick a prime greater than 5, square it and see what would be the remainder upon division of it by 23.   n=5 --> n^2=49 --> remainder upon division 49 by 23 is 3.   Answer: 3.
