A.103
B.106
C.510
D.1050
Answer: A.103
Explanation: Explanation :
1050
(1050 - 30)/2 = 510
(510 - 26)/2 = 242
(242 - 22)/2 = 110
(110 - 18)/2 = 46
(46- 14)/2 = 16
(16- 10)/2 = 3
Hence, 110 should have come in place of 103. Answer : Option A

Question: Distance between A and B is 54 miles. Two men started walking from A and B at the same time towards each other. The person who started from A traveled uniformly with average speed 3 mph. While the other man traveled with varying speeds as follows: In first hour his speed was 2 mph, in the second hour it was 2.25 mph, in the third hour it was 2.5 mph, and so on. How fast was B walking when the two men finally meet?
A. 3 mph
B. 3.5 mph
C. 4 mph
D. 4.5 mph
Answer: C. 4 mph
Explanation: Since the question is about speed, we know the answer will be in rate, which in this case is miles per hour.
In such questions, look for the symmetrical situation to find a rough estimate or range. For example, in many work-rate questions, it helps if you figure out the situation in which the rate of both people is the same.
Here the average speed of A (assuming guy who starts from A is A) is 3 mph and distance is 54 miles. So this means that A would take a total of 54/3 = 18 hours to cover the distance from A to B. So, if B's speed were also 3, both A and B would travel for 9 hours to meet in the middle.
B has uniform speed per hour so its average will be the simple average of all speeds: 2, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3, 3.25, 3.5...
and since 3 is actually right in the middle of the 9 speeds, both A and B will end with same average speed, and will meet after 9 hours.
Once this is determined, see what the final speed of B (during the ninth hour) is. In this case, B's speed during the ninth hour was 4 mph, so the correct answer is (C): 4 mph.

A.$1,000
B.$1,200
C.$1,500
D.$1,800
Answer: C.$1,500
Explanation: Assuming the medical expenses are $1000 or more, the family pays $700 + $400 = $1100.
The total amount paid by insurance plan for the first $1000 of expenses is $600.
The insurance will pay another $500 when the medical expenses are $1500.

Question: In Sivakasi, each boy’s quota of match sticks to fill into boxes is not more than 200 per session. If he reduces the number of sticks per box by 25, he can fill 3 more boxes with the total number of sticks assigned to him. Which of the following is the possible number of sticks assigned to each boy ?
A.200
B.150
C.100
D.175
Answer: B.150
Explanation: Explanation :
Let no. of matchstick assigned to boy=n;
no. of matchsticks he put in each box=x;
And, the no. of boxes=y;
Initially we have;
=> n / x = y. -----------------------(i)
After he reduces no. of matchsticks in each box by 25, we have :-
=> n / x - 25 = y + 3. -----------------------(ii)
On solving eq (i) and (ii), we have;
=> n= 3* x * ( x - 25 ) / 25;
i.e. no. of stick must be a multiple of 25;
Let x=50, we have;
=>3 * 50 * (50-25) /25.
=> 3 * 50 = 150.
Hence, the required number of sticks is 150.

Question: A certain musical scale has has 13 notes, each having a different frequency, measured in cycles per second. In the scale, the notes are ordered by increasing frequency, and the highest frequency is twice the lowest. For each of the 12 lower frequencies, the ratio of a frequency to the next higher frequency is a fixed constant. If the lowest frequency is 880 cycles per second, then the frequency of the 7th note in the scale is how many cycles per second?
A.880 * sqrt 2
B.880 * sqrt (2^7)
C.880 * sqrt (2^12)
D.880 * the twelfth root of (2^7)
Answer: A.880 * sqrt 2
Explanation: Let the constant be k.
F1 = 880
F2 = 880k
F3 = 880 k * k = 880 * k^2
F13= 880 * k^12
we know F13 = 2 *F1 = 2 * 880 = 1760
1760/880 = k^12
k = twelfth root of 2
for F7...
F7 = 880 * k^6 ( as we wrote for F2 and F3)
F7 = 880 * (twelfth root of 2) ^ 6
F7 = 880 * sqrt (2)
The answer is A.

Question: If a farmer wants to plough a farm field on time, he must plough 120 hectares a day. For technical reasons he ploughed only 85 hectares a day, hence he had to plough 2 more days than he planned and he still has 40 hectares left. What is the area of the farm field and how many days the farmer planned to work initially?
A.600
B.490
C.720
D.435
Answer: C.720
Explanation: Let x be the number of days in the initial plan. Therefore, the whole field is 120⋅x hectares. The farmer had to work for x+2 days, and he ploughed 85(x+2) hectares, leaving 40 hectares unploughed. Then we have the equation:
120x=85(x+2)+40
35x=210
x=6
So the farmer planned to have the work done in 6 days, and the area of the farm field is 120⋅6=720 hectareS

Question: Linda spent 4/5 of her savings on furniture and the rest on a TV. If the TV cost her $100, what were her original savings?
A.$900
B.$300
C.$500
D.$700
Answer: C.$500
Explanation: If Linda spent 4/5 of her savings on furniture, the rest
5 / 5 - 4 / 5 = 1 / 5 on a TV
But the TV cost her $100. So 1 / 5 of her savings is $100. So her original savings are 5 times $100 = $500

Question: Two dice are tossed once. What is the probability of getting an even number on the first die or a total sum of 11 on the two dice?
A.7/9
B.5/9
C.11/18
D.19/36
Answer: D.19/36
Explanation: There are 36 possible outcomes for two dice.
The number of outcomes with an even number on the first die is 3*6=18.
The number of outcomes with a sum of 11 is 2.
We need to subtract the outcomes that have both an even number on the first die and a sum of 11 because we have counted those outcomes twice. This number of outcomes is 1.
The number of outcomes with either an even number on the first die or a sum of 11 is 18+2-1=19.
The probability is 19/36.
The answer is D.
Question: A person travels equal distances with speeds of 3 km/hr, 4 km/hr and 5 km/hr and takes a total time of 54 minutes. The total distance is?
A.1 km
B.2 km
C.3 km
D.3.4 km
Answer: D.3.4 km
Explanation: D
3 km
Let the total distance be 3x km.
Then, x/3 + x/4 + x/5 = 54/60
47x/60 = 54/60 => x = 1.14
Total distance = 3 * 1.14 = 3.4 km.

Question: At a certain supplier, a machine of type A costs $24,000 and a machine of type B costs $50,000. Each machine can be purchased by making a 20 percent down payment and repaying the remainder of the cost and the finance charges over a period of time. If the finance charges are equal to 40 percent of the remainder of the cost, how much less would 2 machines of type A cost than 1 machine of type B under this arrangement?
A.$2,640
B.$11,200
C.$12,000
D.$12,800
Answer: A.$2,640
Explanation: Total Cost of 2 Machines of Type A
= 20% of (Cost of 2 machine A) + remainder + 40 % remainder
= 20% of 48000 + (48000 - 20% of 48000) + 40% of (48000 - 20% of 48000)
= 63360
Total Cost of 1 Machine of Type B
= 20% of (Cost of 1 machine B) + remainder + 40 % remainder
= 20% of 50000 + (50000 - 20% of 50000) + 40% of (50000 - 20% of 50000)
= 66000
Diff = 66000 - 63360 = 2640
Hence, A.
