Choose the correct choice from the following answers.
A) 3/5
B) 7/18
C) 8/15
D) 4/10
E) 5/12

Solution: Renee has a bag of 6 candies, 4 of which are sweet and 2 of which are sour.   Jack picks two candies simultaneously and at random. What is the chance   that exactly 1 of the candies he has picked is sour?   Here's what I did: I thought why not use combinatorics lol (too brave right? :roll: ). So I thought there are 6!/4!2! = 15 ways to pick 2 candies out of the 6.   I need exactly 1 sour so the chance of getting exactly 2 sour was 4/15. 1-4/15 = 11/15. This was SOOO WRONG !!   Here's the answer:   2/6 x 4/5 = 8/30 (sour fist and then sweet)   2/6 x 4/5 = 8/30 (sweet fist and then sour)   8/30 + 8/30 = 16/30 = 8/15.   8/15 is the answer

Let N = 18p, where p is a prime number greater than 2. How many odd numbers divide N?
Choose the correct choice from the following options
A) 1 B) 2 C) 3 D) 4 E) 5

Solution: We start by factoring 18. 18 = 2*9 = 6*3 = 2*3*3. Since p is a prime number greater than 2 it must be odd. Therefore 3, 9, and p are the odd numbers that divide N. There are three odd divisors and the answer is therefore 3.

Each digit 1 through 5 is used exactly once to create a 5-digit integer. If the 3 and the 4 cannot be adjacent digits in the integer, how many 5-digit integers are possible?	Select:
A) 48
B) 66
C) 72
D) 78
E) 90

Solution: Total number of 5 digit numbers that can be formed = 5! = 120.   Total number of 5 digit numbers in which 3 and 4 are adjacent = 48. This can be calculated by taking 3 and 4 as a pair and considering positions where they can appear.   Number of 5 digit numbers in which 3 and 4 are not adjacent = Total number of 5 digit numbers - Total number of 5 digit numbers in which 3 and 4 are adjacent.   Ans = 120 - 48= 
120 - 48 = 72

If an integer n is to be chosen at random from the integers 1 to 88, inclusive, what is the probability that n(n + 1)(n + 2) will be divisible by 8? Select the correct option:	A) 1/4	B) 3/8	C) 1/2	D) 5/8	E) 33/44

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 88, there are 44 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   = (44 + 12)/88   = 66/88   = 33/44   Ans is 33/44

A) 20.8	B) 21.46	C) 21.74	D) 22.3	E) 21.4

Solution: 1) Cost of repairing = 11.5 ( for one year ), Therefore for 2 years it would be$ 23.   2) Cost of new pair which will last for 2 years is$ 28.   Percentage change formula =( Final value - Initial value ) / ( Initial Value ) * 100. In this case the final value would be the price of new shoeinitial value would be the cost of repairing the old shoe.   I.e ( 28 - 23 ) / ( 23 ) * 100 = 21.74 %.   Ans is 21.74

What is the number of 7-element subsets of the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
for which the sum of those 7 elements is a multiple of 3 ?	Select the correct option.
A) 10  B) 11  C) 12  D) 13  E) 14

Solution: We describe 2 solutions. Let S = {1, 2, . . . , 9}. Observe that the sum of the elements of S   is divisible by 3. So the problem is the same as asking for the number of ways that 2 elements   of S can be chosen so that their sum is divisible by 3 (the other 7 elements of S correspond to a   7-element set as in the problem). Choosing 2 elements of S with sum divisible by 3 corresponds   to either choosing 2 numbers divisible by 3 (which can be done in 3 ways) or choosing 1 number   that is one more than a multiple of 3 and 1 number that is one less than a multiple of 3 (which can   be done in 3 · 3 = 9 ways). Hence, the answer is 3 + 9=

The sector of a circle has radius of 28 cm and central angle 135o. Find its perimeter?  Pick:
A) 122 cm
B) 92.2 cm
C) 28.9 cm
D) 29.2 cm

In May, Xiang sold 15 used cars. For these 15 cars, the range of the selling price was $15,000 and the lowest selling price was $4,500. In June, Xiang sold 10 used cars. For these 10 cars, the range of the selling prices was $16,500 and the lowest selling price was $5,500. What was the range of the selling prices of the 25 used cars sold by Xiang in May and June?  Select.
A) 1. $15,600  B) 2. $15,750  C) 3. $17,500  D) 4. $18,100  E) 5. $19,200

Solution: Edited the question as there was a typo.   Range = Highest Value - Lowest Value.   Range in May was 15,000 and the lowest price in May was 4,500, thus the highest price in May was 15,000+4,500=19,500.   Range in June was 16,500 and the lowest price in June was 5,500, thus the highest price in June was 16,500+5,500=22,000.   Lowest price of a car in May-June was 4,500 (May) and the highest price of a car in May-June was 22,000, thus the range for May-June is 22,000-4,500=17,500.   Answer: 3. $17,500.
Answer: C
Two goods trains each 500 m long are running in opposite directions on parallel tracks. Their speeds are 45 km/hr and 30 km/hr respectively. Find the time taken by the slower train to pass the driver of the faster one?
Choose the correct answer
A) 22  B) 27  C) 48  D) 99  E) 12

Solution: Relative speed = 45 + 30= 
45 + 30 = 75
75 km/hr.   75 * 5/18= 125/6 m/sec.   Distance covered = 500 + 500= 
500 + 500 = 1_000
1000 m.   Required time= 1000 * 6/125= 
1000 * 6/125 = 48

Two trains are moving in opposite direction @ 60 kmph and 90 kmph.Their lengths are 1.10 km and 0.9 km respectively.The time taken by the slower train to cross the faster train in seconds is Options
A) 36 B) 45 C) 48 D) 49 E) 50

Solution: R.S = (60+90)kmph => (150*5/18)m/sec => (125/3)m/sec   Distance covered = (1.10 + 0.9) km = (2*1000)= 
(2*1000) = 2_000
2000 m.   Required time= (2000 * 3/125)= 
(2000 * 3/125) = 48

Find large number from below question The difference of two numbers is 1380. On dividing the larger number by the smaller, we get 6 as quotient and the 15 as remainder	Choose the correct choice:
A) 1245  B) 1345  C) 1455  D) 1577  E) 1653

Solution: Let the smaller number be x. Then larger number = (x + 1380).   x + 1380 = 6x + 15   5x = 1365   x = 273   Large number = 273+1380= 
273+1380 = 1_653
