If an integer n is to be chosen at random from the integers 1 to 86, inclusive, what is the probability that n(n + 1)(n + 2) will be divisible by 8? Choose the correct choice from the following answers.
A) 1/4 B) 3/8 C) 1/2 D) 55/86 E) 3/4

Solution: n(n+1)(n+2) will be divisible by 8 when n is a multiple of 2 or when (n+1) is a multiple of 8.   Thus when n is even, this whole expression will be divisible by 8.   from 1 to 86, there are 43 even integers.   Now when (n+1) is multiple by 8, we have 12 such values for (n+1)   probability that n(n+1)(n+2) will be divisible by 8   = (43 + 12)/96   =55/86   Ans is55/86

A car gets 20 kilometers per gallon of gasoline. How many gallons of gasoline would the car need to travel 130 kilometers? Options
A) 8.5 gallons  B) 7.5 gallons  C) 6.5 gallons  D) 5.5 gallons  E) 4.5 gallons

Solution: Each 20 kilometers, 1 gallon is needed. We need to know how many 20 kilometers are there in 130 kilometers?   130 / 20= 
130 / 20 = 13/2 = around 6.5
6.5 * 1= 
6.5 * 1 = 6.5
6.5 gallons correct answer 6.5 gallons
Answer: C
When the positive integer j is divided by 9, the remainder is 5. What is the remainder when 3j is divided by 9?  Choose one: A) 0 B) 1 C) 3 D) 4 E) 6

Solution: Lets take the number as j   when j is divided by 9 the remainder is 5 hence j can be written as   j=9k +5   Multiplying by 3 will give   3j = 27k + 15   we can also write   3j = 27k + 9 + 6   Now 27k and 9 are divisible by 9 leaving the remainder as 6 hence 6 is the answer.

The average height of 35 boys in a class was calculated as 181cm. It has later found that the height of one of the boys in the class was wrongly written as 166 cm whereas his actual height was 106 cm. Find the actual average height of the boys in the class (Round off your answer to two decimal places).?
Choose the correct choice from the following answers.
A) 178.27 cm B) 179.29 cm C) 978.29 cm D) 178.89 cm E) 176.29 cm

Solution: Calculated average height of 35 boys = 181 cm.   Wrong total height of 35 boys = 181 * 35 cm. This was as a result of an actual height of 106 cm being wrongly written as 166 cm. Correct total height of 35 boys = 181 cm - (166 cm - 106 cm)/35   = 181 cm - 60 /35 cm   = 181 cm - 1.71 cm = 179.29 cm.   Answer: 179.29 cm

Mr. John used to purchase certain number of mangoes for $360 Since the price of mangoes is reduced by 10% he got 12 more mangoes today. Find the original price of 130 mangoes.	Choose the correct choice:  A) 360  B) 380  C) 400  D) 406  E) 433

Solution: Mr. John used to purchase certain number of mangoes for $360 Since the price of mangoes is reduced by 10% he got 12 more mangoes today. Find the original price of 120 mangoes.   Method 1:   Let price per mango = x. Let number of mangoes be n. Then, nx = 360.   Now price = 0.9x; number of mangoes = n + 12. Total amount = 0.9x*(n+12) = 360.   nx = 0.9nx + 10.8x => 0.1nx = 10.8x => n = 108 => x = 360/108 = 3.33   Original price of 130 mangoes = 130*3.33 = 433.   Answer 433

Solution: When A runs 1000 m, B runs 900 m and when B runs 800 m, C runs 700 m.   When B runs 900 m, distance that C runs = (900 * 700)/800 = 6300/8= 
6300/8 = 1_575/2 = around 787.5
787.5 m.   In a race of 1000 m, A beats C by   (1000 - 787.5)= 
  (1000 - 787.5) = 212.5

A certain library assesses fines for overdue books as follows. On the first day that a book is overdue, the total fine is $0.08. For each additional day that the book is overdue, the total fine is either increased by $0.30 or doubled, whichever results in the lesser amount. What is the total for a book on the fourth day it is overdue?
Choices:
A) $0.62	B) $0.70	C) $0.80	D) $0.90	E) $1.00

Solution: 1st day fine - 0.08   2nd day fine - 0.08*2 = 0.16 (as doubling gives lower value)   3rd day fine - 0.16*2 = 0.32 (as doubling gives lower value)   4th day fine - 0.32 + 0.3 = 0.62 (as doubling gives higher value we add 0.3 this time)   $0.62nswer: $0.62.

During the first week of performances of a certain play, 5,400 tickets were sold, all at reduced price. During the remaining weeks of performances, 5 times as many tickets were sold at full price as were sold at reduced price. If the total number of tickets sold W was 25,200, how many of them were sold at full price? Select the correct option.
A) 21,000	B) 19,800	C) 16,500	D) 15,800	E) 8,700

Solution: Given:   The question tells us about the number of tickets sold in the first week at reduced price = 5,400. It also tells us that during the remaining weeks, the number of tickets sold at full price was 5 times the no. of tickets sold at reduced price. The total tickets sold was 25,200, and we are asked to find the number of tickets that where sold at full price.   Approach:   The question asks us to find the number of ticket sold at full price. We know that the number of tickets sold at full price was 5 times the no. of tickets sold at reduced price in remaining weeks. Hence, assuming tickets sold at reduced price in remaining weeks to be x would give us the no. of tickets sold at full price to be 5x.   Tickets sold in first week + Tickets sold in remaining weeks = Total no. of tickets soldi.e.   Tickets sold in first week + Tickets sold at full price in remaining weeks + Tickets sold at reduced price in remaining weeks = Total no. of tickets sold   We know the no. of tickets sold during first week and the total no. of tickets sold. We will use this relation to get to our answer.   Working Out:   Tickets sold in first week + Tickets sold at full price in remaining weeks + Tickets sold at reduced price in remaining weeks = Total no. of tickets sold   Substituting values in the equation, we get   5,400 + 5x + x = 25,200   x= 3,300   Tickets sold at full price = 5x = 16,500   Answer: Option 16,500

If a/b = 1/7, b/c = 3, c/d = 2/3, d/e = 2 and e/f = 1/2, then what is the value of abc/def ?  Pick one.
A) 72/21 B) 27/85 C) 34/47 D) 13/81 E) 16/21

Solution: Say a = 1. Then:   a/b = 1/7 --> b = 7;   b/c = 3 --> c = 7/3;   c/d = 2/3 --> d = 7/2;   d/e = 2 --> e = 7/4;   e/f = 1/2 --> f = 7/2.   abc/def = (1*7*7/3)/(7/2*7/4*7/2) = 16/21.   Answer: 16/21.

Six computers, each working at the same constant rate, together can process a certain amount of data in 12 days. How many additional computers, each working at the same constant rate, will be needed to process the same amount of data in 4 days? Select the correct option.
A) 3	B) 5	C) 6	D) 9	E) 12

Solution: Explanation: If six computers require 12 days to process the data, thats   a total of 72 computer-days the product of 6 and 12. If you change the number   of computers or the number of days, 90 will have to remain the product, whether   that means 72 days of one computer or one day with 72 computers.   In 4 days, the number of computers is:   4c = 72   c = 18   18 computers is 12 more than the 6 that it took to do the job in 12 days, so   the correct choice is (12).
