Question: If a 2-digit integer is selected at random from the integers 60 through 99, inclusive, what is the probability that the first digit is equal to two less than the second digit?
A. 4/40
B. 4/90
C. 60/100
D. 1/99
Answer: A. 4/40
Explanation: The tens digit may be 6, 7, 8, or 9
The units digit may be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9
The tens digit has to be 2 less than the value of the units digit so we will add 2 to possible tens digits
6+2 = 8
7+2 = 9
8+2 = 10
9+2 = 11
Of these values, 8 and 9 are possible units digits which means that 6 and 7 are possible tens digits
Possible numbers are 68, 69, 78, and 79
We have 4 possible numbers
Total numbers between 60 and 99 = (99-60)+1 = 40
Probability = 4/40

Question: Question: What is the remainder when W=(1!)!^3 + (2!)^3 + (3!)^3 + … + (432!)^3 is divided by 144?
A. 0
B. 25
C. 49
D. 81
Answer: D. 81
Explanation: 144 =12 *12
(1!)^3=1
2!=2, therefore (2!)^3=2*2*2=8
3!=6, therefore (3!)^3=6*6*6=216
4!=24 therefore (4!)^3= 24*24*24 which is completely divisible by 144
thus from 4! onwards each term will be divisible by 144 and will leave the remainder of 0
now the remainder when W=(1!)^3 + (2!)^3 + (3!)^3 + … + (432!)^3 is divided by 144 is same as, when 1+8+216 =225 is divided by 144
now remainder when 225 is divided by 144 is 81. hence answer should be D

Question: Four staff members at a certain company worked on a project. The amounts of time that the four staff members worked on the project were in the ratio 2 to 3 to 5 to 6. If one of the four staff members worked on the project for 120 hours, which of the following CANNOT be the total number of hours that the four staff members worked on the project?
A.384
B.320
C.960
D.192
Answer: D.192
Explanation: Four members worked in ration 2:3:5:6, hence as everyone mentioned, individual work could be taken as 2x, 3x,5x, and 6x. Also this gives us total work as 16x.
But we are told that one of these individual works is 120hrs. hence, possible scenarios, if
(1)2x =120 => 16x = 960 (2) 3x =120 => 16x = 640 (3) 5x =120 => 16x = 384 (4) 6x =120 => 16x = 320
Hence Answer is D 192 which can not be any of these.
Question: A train travelled at an average speed of 100 km/hr, stopping for 3 minutes after every 75 km. How long did it take to reach its destination 600 km from the starting point?
A.5 hrs 22 min
B.6 hrs 21 min
C.7 hrs 14 min
D.6 hrs
Answer: B.6 hrs 21 min
Explanation: Explanation:
Time taken to travel 600 km = Distance/Speed =600/100 = 6 hour
Now we need to find out the number of stops in the 600 km travel.
Given that train stops after every 75 km.
600/75 = 8
It means train stops 7 times before 600 km and 1 time just after 600 km. Hence we need
to take only 7 stops into consideration for the 600 km travel.
Hence, total stopping time in the 600 km travel = 7 x 3 = 21 minutes
Total time needed to reach the destination = 6 hours + 21 minutes = 6 hrs 21 min

Question: Charlene's annual bonus is calculated in the following manner: Charlene receives 40 percent of her first $11,000 in sales and 30 percent of her sales in excess of $11,000. If Charlene received a bonus of $7,300, what were her annual sales?
A.$ 20,666
B.$ 22,000
C.$ 24,000
D.$ 26,000
Answer: A.$ 20,666
Explanation: Let x be the total sales in $.
For the 1st 11,000 you get 40% ---> 0.4*11000 = 4400$
For the remaining (x-11000) $, you get 30% ---> 0.3*(x-11000)
Thus, 0.3*(x-11000) + 4400 = 7300 ----> x= 20,666 $
A is thus the correct answer.

Question: Rahul went to a shop and bought things worth Rs. 25, out of which 30 Paise went on sales tax on taxable purchases. If the tax rate was 6%, then what was the cost of the tax free items?
A.19.7
B.20
C.22
D.21.4
Answer: A.19.7
Explanation: Total cost of the items he purchased = Rs.25
Given that out of this Rs.25, 30 Paise is given as tax
=> Total tax incurred = 30 Paise = Rs.30/100
Let the cost of the tax free items = x
Given that tax rate = 6%
∴ (25−30/100−x)6/100 = 30/100
⇒ 6(25 −0.3 −x) = 30
⇒ (25 − 0.3 − x) = 5
⇒ x = 25 − 0.3 − 5 = 19.7

a1 = 17 <<<< Ans C
Question: A certain list consists of 21 different numbers. If n is in the list and n is 4 times the average(arithmetic mean) of the other 20 numbers in the list, then n is what fraction U of the sum of the 21 numbers in the list?
A. 1/20
B. 1/6
C. 1/5
D. 4/21
Answer: B. 1/6
Explanation: This is how I used to calculate which I think works pretty well:
if you let the average of the 20 other numbers equal a, can you write this equation for sum of the list (S)
n + 20a = S
the question tells us that
n = 4a
plug this back into the first equation and you get that the sum is 24a
4a + 20a = 24a
therefore fraction U of n to the total would be
4a/24a or 1/6

Question: It takes eight hours for a 600 km journey, if 120 km is done by train and the rest by car. It takes 20 minutes more, if 200 km is done by train and the rest by car. The ratio of the speed of the train to that of the car is?
A.3:6
B.3:1
C.3:4
D.3:9
Answer: C.3:4
Explanation: Let the speed of the train be x km/hr and that of the car be y km/hr.
Then, 120/x + 480/y = 8 or 1/x + 4/y = 1/15 --- (i)
And, 200/x + 400/y = 25/3 or 1/x + 2/y = 1/24 --- (ii)
Solving (i) and (ii), we get x = 60 and y = 80
Ratio of speeds = 60:80

B.w=15/L=20
C.w=35/L=27
D.w=14/L=35
Answer: B.w=15/L=20
Explanation: L * W = 300 : area , L is the length and W is the width.
2 L + 2 W = 70 : perimeter
L = 35 - w : solve for L
(35 - W) * W = 300 : substitute in the area equation
W = 15 and L = 20 : solve for W and find L using L = 35 - w.

Question: Two Trains A and B start simultaneously from stations 500 miles apart, and travel the same route toward each other on adjacent parallel tracks. If Train A and Train B travel at a constant rate of 50 miles per hour and 50 miles per hour, respectively, how many miles will Train A have traveled when the trains pass each other, to the nearest mile?
A. 112
B. 133
C. 150
D. 250
Answer: D. 250
Explanation: Since we know the distance (500) and the combined rate (100), we plug it into the formula:
Distance = Rate * Time
500 = 100 * Time
We can solve for the time they will meet cause we added the rate of Train A and Train B together.
So the time will be 500/100 from dividing 100 on both sides to isolate Time in the equation above.
Time will be 5 hours so now you can plug that in for Train A’s distance.
Distance = Rate * Time
Distance = 50 * 5
Distance = 250 according to answer choice D.

B. 4
C. 6
D. 8
Answer: D. 8
Explanation: s and t are both odd prime numbers- It means either s or t is not 2
and since prime numbers have only two factors - 1 and the number itself
s and t each will have (1+1)= 2 factors
Hence 2st will have (1+1)(1+1)(1+1)= 8 factors
D is the answer
Question: 2 men and 7 boys can do a piece of work in 14 days; 3 men and 8 boys can do the same in 11 days. Then, 8 men and 6 boys can do three times the amount of this work in
A.33
B.21
C.17
D.28
Answer: B.21
Explanation: Explanation:
(2\times 14) men +(7\times 14)boys=(3\times 11)men+(8\times 11)boys
Leftrightarrow 5 men= 10 boys Leftrightarrow 1man= 2 boys
(2 men+ 7 boys) = (2 x 2 +7) boys = 11 boys
( 8 men + 6 boys) = (8 x 2 +6) boys = 22 boys.
Let the required number of days be x.
More boys , Less days (Indirect proportion)
More work , More days (Direct proportion)
begin{matrix} Boys\: 22:11\Work\: 1:3 end{::14:x
(22\times 1\times x)=(11\times 3\times 14) Leftrightarrow {462}{22}=21
Hence, the required number of days = 21

Question: Two trains are running in opposite directions with the same speed. If the length of each train is 240 m and they cross each other in 12 sec, then the speed of each train is?
A.22
B.72
C.36
D.88
Answer: B.72
Explanation: Let the speed of each train be x m/sec.
Then, relative speed of the two trains = 2x m/sec.
So, 2x = (240 + 240)/12 => x = 20
Speed of each train = 20 m/sec.
= 20 * 18/5 =- 72 km/hr.

Question: Two cars started from the same point, at 5 am, traveling in opposite directions at 40 and 50 mph respectively. At what time will they be 450 miles apart?
A.9 am
B.10 am
C.6 am
D.8 am
Answer: B.10 am
Explanation: After t hours the distances D1 and D2, in miles per hour, traveled by the two cars are given by
D1 = 40 t and D2 = 50 t
After t hours the distance D separating the two cars is given by
D = D1 + D2 = 40 t + 50 t = 90 t
Distance D will be equal to 450 miles when
D = 90 t = 450 miles
To find the time t for D to be 450 miles, solve the above equation for t to obtain
t = 5 hours.
5 am + 5 hours = 10 am
