John and Karen begin running at opposite ends of a trail until they meet somewhere in between their starting points. They each run at their respective constant rates until John gets a cramp and stops. If Karen runs 50% faster than John, who is only able to cover 25% of the distance e before he stops, what percent longer would Karen have run than she would have had John been able to maintain his constant rate until they met. Select the correct option:
A) 25%  B) 50%  C) 75%  D) 100%  E) 200%

Solution: John and Karen begin running at opposite ends of a trail until they meet somewhere in between their starting points. They each run at their respective constant rates until John gets a cramp and stops. If Karen runs 50% faster than John, who is only able to cover 25% of the distance e before he stops, what percent longer would Karen have run than she would have had John been able to maintain his constant rate until they met.   Lets say the distance of the trail is 100 miles. Lets also say that J rate = 10 miles/hour and K rate = 15 miles/hour.   If John stops at the 25% mark that means he travels 25 miles in 2.5 hours. It would take Karen t=d/r t=75/15= 
75/15 = 5
5 hours to reach john. If John had not stopped, their combined rate would 10+15= 
10+15 = 25
25 miles/hour meaning they would have met in 4 hours. Therefore, she ran one hour longer (25%) longer than she would have needed to if John ran for the entire time.   25%NSWER: 25%) 25%

A, B, C and D enter into partnership. A subscribes 1/3 of the capital B 1/4, C 1/5 and D the rest. How much share did A get in a profit of Rs.2430 ?
Choose the correct option: A) s. 832 B) s. 830 C) s. 822 D) s. 812 E) s. 810

Solution: Let the total amount in the partnership be 'x'.   Then A's share = x/3   B's share = x/4   C's share = x/5   D's share = x - (x/3 + x/4 +x/5) = 13x/60   A : B : C : D = x/3 : x/4 : x/5 : 13x/60 = 20 : 15 : 12 : 13   A's share in the profit of Rs. 2430 = 20 (2430/60) = Rs. 810.

Jeremy challenges his friends Asafa, Yohan, Nestor and Usain to a 400 metre race, with a difference. Jeremy will run the entire 400 metres and the others will run 100 metres each and then combine their times. If their combined time is quicker than Jeremy's they will have won the race. Asafa runs his stage in 10 seconds, Yohan runs his stage in 11 seconds but Nestor trips over and runs his stage in 16 seconds. Jeremy has run the first 300 metres at an average speed of 10.5 seconds per 100 metres. However when Jeremy runs 400 metre races, his final 100 metres is always 1.5 seconds slower than his average speed over the first 300 metres. If Usain's team is to have a chance of winning how quickly must he run his 100 metres?	Choose the correct choice from the following options.
A) 5
B) 5.5
C) 6
D) 6.5
E) 7

Solution: Jeremy has run the first 300 metres at an average speed of 10.5 seconds per 100 metres and so his time for 300 metres is 31.5 seconds (10.5 x 3 = 31.5).   Jeremy's final 100 metres is always 1.5 seconds slower than his average 300 metre speed and so he will run it in 12 seconds (10.5 + 1.5 = 12).   Jeremy's total time for 400 metres is 43.5 seconds (31.5 + 12 = 43.5).   Usain's team has run the first 300 metres in 37 seconds (10 + 11 + 16 = 37).   To be in with a chance of winning Usain must close the gap of 6.5 seconds (43.5 - 37 = 6.5).   ANSWER: 6.5

A Truck drives 80 miles on local roads at 30 mph, and 50 miles on the highway at 60 mph, the truck also take a hour lunch break. what is the average speed of the entire trip?	Choose the correct choice.
A) 30 mph  B) 29 mph  C) 28 mph  D) 31 mph  E) 23 mph

Solution: So The Answer is Plainly A....   we have a general relation for speed , time and distance : v (velocity) * t ( time)= d (distance)   for first part we have d=80 miles , and v= 30 mph so we can obtain time : 30*t = 80 Or t= 80/30 = 2.6 hours the needed time to cover 80 miles   in the same way we should divide 50 to 60 to find the needed time to cover 50 miles ,so t= 0.8 hours   so the total time for covering total distance would be 2.6+0.8+1 (lunch time) = 4.4 hours and total distance is   80+50= 
  80+50 = 130
130 miles   Final stage : average speed is total distance divide to total time : 130/4.4= 29.5 miles per hour rounding up to 30....

Which number need to add to 7844213 to get a number exactly divisible by 549?
Choose the correct choice from the following choices.
A) 418 B) 148 C) 448 D) 248 E) 348

Solution: 7844213 / 549 = 14288 and reminder = 101.   549-101= 
549-101 = 448
448   So, the next number divisible by 549 is 448 places in front of 7844213   Which means 448 + 7844213= 
448 + 7844213 = 7_844_661
7844661   448 should be added to 7844213   448

If the ratio of boys to girls in a class is B and the ratio of girls to boys is G; then 5 (B + G) is ?
Select.
A) Equal to 3  B) Less than 5  C) More than 5  D) Less than 1/5  E) none of these

Solution: Let number of boys = x   Let number of girls = y   Therefore x/y = B and y/x = G   5(B + G) = 5[(x/y) + (y/x)] = 5[(x2 + y2)/xy] > 5   Equal to 3NSWER:Equal to 3

The greatest number of four digits which is divisible by 15, 25, 40 and 75 is:	Choose the correct choice from the following choices.
A) 9600  B) 3337  C) 2368  D) 2688  E) 2611

Solution: Explanation:   Greatest number of 4-digits is 9999. L.C.M. of 15, 25, 40 and 75 is 600. On dividing 9999 by 600, the remainder is 399. Required number   (9999 - 399)= 
  (9999 - 399) = 9_600

Answer: A
On dividing a certain number by 5, 7 and 8 successively, the remainders obtained are 2, 3 and 4 respectively. When the order of division is reversed and the number is successively divided by 8, 7 and 5, the respective remainders R will be:[/b]  Select
A) 3, 3, 2
B) 3, 4, 2
C) 5, 4, 3
D) R=5, 5, 2
E) 6, 4, 3

Solution: Let the original number be X. Then by the successive dividing we have followings :   X=5A+2   A=7B+3   B5 +2= 
5 +2 = 7
7B+3   B=8C+4.   So we have A=7*(8C+4)+3=7*8C+31, and X=5*(7*8C + 31)+2 = 5*7*8C + 157.   Now by dividing X by 8, 7, 5 successively we have followings :   X=8*(5*7C+19)+5   5*7C+19=7*(5C+2) + 5   5C+2=5C+2.   The remainders are, therefore, 5, 5, 2.   The answer is (R=5, 5, 2).
