Question: Some of the people in Town A are left-handed, some are tall, some are both, and some are neither. In Town Y, three times as many people are left-handed > as are left-handed in Town A, three times as many people are tall as are tall in Town A, three times as many people are both as are both in Town A, but no one is neither. If the total number of people in Town A is four times greater than the total number of people in Town Y, which of the following could be the number of people in Town A who are neither left-handed nor tall?
A. 23
B. 39
C. 72
D. 143
Answer: D. 143
Explanation: Yes, correct answer is indeed D.
{A}={Left} + {Tall} - {Both} + {Neither};
{Y} = 3*{Left} + 3*{Tall} - 3*{Both};
Since the total number of people in Town A is four times greater than the total number of people in Town Y, then:
{Left} + {Tall} - {Both} + {Neither}=4*(3*{Left} + 3*{Tall} - 3*{Both});
{Neither}=11*({Left} + {Tall} - {Both}), which means that # of people in Town A who are neither left-handed nor tall must be a multiple of 11.
Only answer choice D, is a multiple of 11: 143=11*13.
Answer: D.

$50, $50, $97, $97, $97, $120, $155, $155, $155, $199, $199
we see that median value is the 6th value as there in total 11 values given
Arithmetic mean = total/number of entries = 1374/11 =124.9090
We are asked to find how many unit sales on that day were greater than the mean sale price but less than the median sale price
as we can clearly see that there is no value between $120 and $124.90, answer is 0 unit

Question: A certain sum of money is invested for one year at a certain rate of simple interest. If the rate of interest is 3% higher, then the invest earned will be 25% more than the interest earned earlier. What is the earlier rate of interest?
A.11
B.787
C.17
D.12
Answer: D.12
Explanation: If the interest earned is 25% more than the earlier interest then the rate of interest also should be 25% higher than the earlier rate.
Let the earlier rate of interest be x%.
Now it will be (x + 3)%
% increase = (x + 3) - x/x * 100 = 25
=> x = 12

Question: A white paper 2 inches wide is placed around a rectangular black paper with dimensions 8 inches by 12 inches. What is the area of the white paper, in square inches?
A.96
B.196
C.128
D.144
Answer: B.196
Explanation: This question is an example of a 'punch out' question - we have to find the area of EVERYTHING, then 'punch out' the part that we don't want.
We're told that a white paper 2 inches wide is placed around a rectangular black paper with dimensions 8 inches by 12 inches. We're asked for the area of the frame, in square inches.
Area of a rectangle = (length)(width)
So the area of the black paper is... (8)(12) = 96
The white paper 'adds' 2 inches to the top, bottom, left and right 'sides' of the picture, so the area of EVERYTHING is...
(8+2+2)(12+2+2) = (12)(16) = 196
When we 'punch out' the area of the black paper, we'll be left with the area of the white paper:
192 - 96 = 96

Question: As x Decreases from 169 to 166, which of the following must increase?
I. 2x - 5
II. 1 - 1/x
III. 1/(x^2 - x)
A. I only
B. III only
C. I and II
D. I and III
Answer: B. III only
Explanation: I. 2x - 5 --> x decreases from 169 to 166 --> 2x decreases --> 2x - 5 decreases.
II. 1 - 1/x --> x decreases from 169 to 166 --> 1/x increases --> 1 -1/x decreases.
III. 1/(x^2 - x) --> x decreases from 169 to 166 --> x^2-x decreases --> 1/(x^2 - x) increases.
Answer: B.
Question: If a is the sum of p consecutive positive integers and b is the sum of q consecutive positive integers. For which of the following values of p and q is it impossible that a = b?
A.p = 2; q = 6
B.p = 3; q = 6
C.p = 10; q = 4
D.p = 7; q = 9
Answer: C.p = 10; q = 4
Explanation: I approached this in a different way, although may be longer but it's certainly more intuitive
It is impossible that a = b if one of them is necessarily even while the other is necessarily odd
for two consecutive integers the sum is necessarily odd
for six consecutive integers the sum is necessarily odd (sum of 3two consecutive integerswhich are all odd)
Thus A is incorrect.
The sum of 3 consecutive integers can be even or odd (an odd integer from the first 2 + an additional integer which can be even or odd). Thus B is incorrect. You can do a similar approach for D and E (it follows that the sum of a specified odd number of consecutive integers can be odd or even).
Leaving us with C to be the only not-wrong answer. To confirm, you can easily deduce that the sum of 4 consecutive integers (sum of 2 odd integers) is necessarily even while the sum of 10 consecutive integers (sum of 5 odd integers) is necessarily odd. Thus C is the right answer.
Question: The least perfect square, which is divisible by each of 21, 36 and 66 is:
A.213444
B.214344
C.214434
D.231444
Answer: A.213444
Explanation: Explanation:
L.C.M. of 21, 36, 66 = 2772.
Now, 2772 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 11
To make it a perfect square, it must be multiplied by 7 x 11.
So, required number = 22 x 32 x 72 x 112 = 213444

Question: Train X crosses a stationary train Y in 60 seconds and a pole in 25 seconds with the same speed. The length of the train X is 300 m. What is the length of the stationary train Y?
A.187 m
B.420 m
C.197 m
D.167 m
Answer: B.420 m
Explanation: Let the length of the stationary train Y be LY
Given that length of train X, LX = 300 m
Let the speed of Train X be V.
Since the train X crosses train Y and a pole in 60 seconds and 25 seconds respectively.
=> 300/V = 25 ---> ( 1 )
(300 + LY) / V = 60 ---> ( 2 )
From (1) V = 300/25 = 12 m/sec.
From (2) (300 + LY)/12 = 60
=> 300 + LY = 60 (12) = 720
=> LY = 720 - 300 = 420 m
Length of the stationary train = 420 m

A.48
B.50
C.60
D.75
Answer: C.60
Explanation: This can be solve in two steps and without any complex calculation.
Given : equation of line f as y=(4/3)x -100. So the line intercept the axes at (0,-100) and (75,0).
This can be considered a right angle triangle with right angle at (0,0) . So Base=100 , Height=75 and Hypotenuse =125 (By Pythagoras triplet)
So a perpendicular from the (0,0) to hypotenuse will be the answer.
Area of triangle= 0.5*100*75=0.5*125* x
=> x=60;
SO answer is 60=C
Question: seven children, Arya, Betsy, Chen, Daniel, Emily, and Franco, are to be seated in a single row of six chairs. If Betsy cannot sit next to Emily, how many different arrangements of the six children are possible?
A.240
B.480
C.540
D.720
Answer: C.540
Explanation: Since it is more time consuming and error prone to find ways Betsy and E not sitting together, It is better we find ways in which they will be together and then subtract from total ways..
total ways = 6!..
ways B and E will be sitting together..
take both B and E as one, then these two together with other 4 can sit in 5! ways ...
Also B and E can sit within themselves in 2! ways..
so the answer required = 6!-2*5!=540..

Question: Two buses and a van were employed to transport a class of students on a field trip. 2/5 of the class boarded the first bus. 2/3 of the remaining students boarded the second bus, and the rest of the students boarded the van. When the second bus broke down, 1/2 of the students on the second bus boarded the first bus. What fraction of the class was on board the first bus?
A.a) 1/2
B.b) 2/3
C.c) 11/15
D.d) 6/10
Answer: D.d) 6/10
Explanation: This is a pure ratio question (we aren't given any numbers for anything), so you can just choose any starting number you like, and use it to solve the problem. The best number to pick is almost always the product of all the denominators of your fractions, so here we could start with 30 students. Then we have:
• 2/5 of these, or 12 students, board the first bus
• there are 18 students left. 2/3 of these, or 12 students, board the second bus
• this bus breaks down, and 1/2 of the 12 students, or 6 students, board the first bus
• the first bus now contains 18 out of the original 30 students, so the answer is 18/30 = 6/10

Question: By mixing two brands of tea and selling the mixture at the rate of Rs. 177 per kg. a shopkeeper makes a profit of 18%. If to every 2 kg of one brand costing Rs. 200 per kg, 3 kg of the other brand is added, then how much per kg does the other brand cost?
A.Rs. 110
B.Rs. 120
C.Rs. 140
D.None of these
Answer: D.None of these
Explanation: Explanation:
Let the cost of the brand be Rs. X per kg.
C.P. of 5 kg = (2 * 200 + 3 * x) = Rs. (400 + 3x)
S.P of 5 kg = Rs. (5 * 177) = Rs. 885
[885 - (400 + 3x)]/(400 + 3x) * 100 = 18
24250 - 150x = 3600 + 27x
177x = 20650 => x = 116 2/3
So, cost of the other brand = Rs. 116.66.

Question: A certain experimental mathematics program was tried out in 2 classes in each of 42 elementary schools and involved 55 teachers. Each of the classes had 1 teacher and each of the teachers taught at least 1, but not more than 3, of the classes. If the number of teachers who taught 3 classes is n, then the least and greatest possible values of n, respectively, are
A.0 and 13
B.0 and 14
C.1 and 10
D.1 and 9
Answer: B.0 and 14
Explanation: One may notice that greatest possible values differ in each answer choice in contrast to the least values, which repeat.
To find out the greatest value you should count the total classes (42*2=84), then subtract the total #of teachers since we know from the question that each teacher taught at least one class (84-55=29). Thus we get a number of the available extra-classes for teachers, and all that we need is just to count how many teachers could take 2 more classes, which is 29/2 = 14.5. So the greatest possible value of the # of teachers who had 3 classes is 14.
Only answer B has this option.

Question: If y > 0, which of the following could be true?
I. y^3 > y^2
II. y^2 = y
III. y^2 > y^3
A.I only
B.III
C.IIIII
D.All of the above
Answer: D.All of the above
Explanation: 1. y^3 > y^2 Well this is true for all y > +1 (but not for values 0 < y < 1)
2. y^2 = y This is true for only one positive number, 1
3. y^2 > y^3 Again this is true only for values of x such that 0 < y < 1
So the answer is D, since there exists at least one value of y which satisfies the equation/ in equation(s)
