A car traveling at a certain constant speed takes 2 seconds longer to travel 1 kilometer than it would take to travel 1 kilometer at 900 kilometers per hour. At what speed, in kilometers per hour, is the car traveling?  Choose the correct choice:
A) 671.5  B) 600  C) 672.5  D) 673  E) 773.5

Solution: Many approaches are possible, one of them:   Let the distance be 1 kilometer.   Time to cover this distance at 900 kilometers per hour is 1/900 hours = 3,600/900 seconds = 4 seconds;   Time to cover this distance at regular speed is 900+2= 
900+2 = 902
902 seconds= 902/3,600 hours = 1/600 hours;   So, we get that to cover 1 kilometer 1/600 hours is needed --> regular speed 600 kilometers per hour (rate is a reciprocal of time or rate=distance/time).   Answer: 600.

Answer: C
12 men can complete any work in 36 days. 18 women can complete the same piece of work in 60 days. 8 men and 20 women work together for 20 days. If only the women were to complete the remaining work in 4 days, then how many women would be required?	Select the correct option
A) 60  B) 74  C) 68  D) 75  E) 70

Solution: 1 Man, 1 Day work=1/(12*36)   1 Woman, 1 Day work=1/(18*60)   So 8 men and 20 women's 20 days work= 20[ 8/(12*36) + 20/(18*60) ] =20/27   Remaining work= 7/27   If remaining work is to be completed by 'x' women in 4 days, then 4*x/(18*60)= 7/27   => x=(7*18*60)/(27*4)= 
(7*18*60)/(27*4) = 70

Answer: B
A train 110 m long is running with a speed of 60 km/hr. In what time will it pass a man who is running at 6 km/hr in the direction opposite to that in which the train is going? Select the correct option
A) 7 sec.
B) 6 sec
C) 3 sec.
D) 1 sec.
E) 8 sec.

Solution: Speed of train relative to man = 60 + 6= 
60 + 6 = 66
66 km/hr.= 66 * 5/18 = 55/3 m/sec.   Time taken to pass the men = 110 * 3/55= 
110 * 3/55 = 6

Answer: D
A car traveled the first quarter of a certain distance at five times the speed it traveled the remaining distance. What proportion of the total time traveled, was the time taken to travel the first quarter of the distance?  Choose the correct choice from the following options.
A) 1/14  B) 1/15  C) 1/16  D) 1/17  E) 1/18

Solution: These problems can be solved through algebra or sly number picking. Being a big fan of solving problems with numbers, let's pick a total distance divisible by 4 (say 40) so we can break it up into quarters, and a speed that can easily be five times, say 10. Each quarter is thus 10 kilometers (or miles or feet or angstroms for all it matters), and the runner's speed is 10 km/h for the first quarter and 2 km/h for the remaining quarters.   He'll take 1 hour to do the first quarter and then 15 hours for the second ,third and fourth quarter. On total he will take 16 hours to complete this race, of which 1 hour was spent on the first quarter. So 1/16. Answer 1/16.

30 men can do a work in 40 days. When should 20 men leave the work so that the entire work is completed in 40 days after they leave the work?
Choose one: A) 11 B) 10 C) 19 D) 187 E) 12

Solution: Total work to be done = 30 * 40= 
30 * 40 = 1_200
1200   Let 20 men leave the work after 'P' days, so that the remaining work is completed in 40 days after they leave the work.   40P + (20 * 40)= 1200   40P = 400 => P = 10 days. Answer: 10

A baseball player just signed a new contract in which he will earn a 12% raise in base pay over last year. Last year he earned no performance bonus, but this year he will have the opportunity to earn up to $50,000 in extra pay through performance. If he earns the full performance bonus, his salary will effectively have been raised by 12.5% from the last year. Assuming he earns the full performance bonus, what will his new salary be?	Choices:
A) 5,150,000  B) 10,550,000  C) 11,250,000  D) 11,450,000  E) 12,250,000

Solution: let x = the old salary   the new base pay + 50,000 = the new pay   (1+.12)*x + 50,000 = (1+.125)*x   1.12x + 50,000 = 1.125x   50,000 = .005x   10,000,000 = x   thus the new pay = (1+.125)*10,000,000 = 11,250,000   11,250,000
