Question: If x and y are both integers such that 41y = 36x and y is not negative, which of the following must be true?
(i) x is prime
(ii) y is even
(iii) xy is positive
A.ii only
B.iii only
C.i and iii only
D.ii and iii only
Answer: B.iii only
Explanation: Effectively y = 36x/41
(i) x is prime: now if y = 36x/41 and both x and y are integers; then if x= 41, 36(41)/41 .....so the 41s cancel each other out and you get x=36. Hunky dory. But if x = 82; you get y =72 which also works. Hence x is not necessarily prime.
(ii) y is even: y = 36(41)/41 = 36 (even). Or try 36(82)/41 = 72 (even). When you multiply even with odd, answer is even. So Y HAS TO BE EVEN.
(iii) xy is positive. Hmm. So if y is positive, then x is positive. Because if you have a -ve value of x, it leads to -ve value of y. Hence I would say iii is the answer. ANSWER:B

Question: When Tom works alone he chops 2 lb. salad in 3 minutes, and when Tammy works alone she chops 3 lb. salad in 2 minutes. They start working together, and after some time finish chopping 65 lb. of salad. Of those 80 lb., the salad quantity chopped by Tammy is what percent greater than the quantifying chopped by Tom?.
A.44%
B.125%
C.105%
D.225%
Answer: B.125%
Explanation: Tom chops 4 lbs in 6 minutes
Tammy chops 9 lbs in 6 minutes
So in the same amount of time, Tammy chops 125% more than Tom, since 9 is 125% greater than 4. So 125% is the answer.
Note that the actual time doesn't matter. If you multiply the time each work by x, you'll multiply the work each does by x, and 9x is still 125% greater than 4x.

Question: There are 45 people in a certain community who belong to the local golf club, tennis club or both clubs. If twice as many people belong to the tennis club as belong to the golf club, what could be the number of people who belong to both clubs?
A.4
B.7
C.17
D.21
Answer: C.17
Explanation: let's find the range of Both and hence the range of x. Minimum value of Both: Say there is no overlap in the two sets.45 = x + 2xx =15In this case Both = 0 Maximum value of Both: Say there is maximum overlap between the two sets. One set has x so it could be a subset of the set 2x.45 = 2xBut x cannot be a decimal so (x-1) could be the overlap (= Both) and there could be 1 in only the Golf club.45 = 2 x + x - (x - 1)x = 22In this case Both = 22 - 1 = 21 So Both lies between 0 and 21 Only option (C) satisfies this condition. ANSWER:C

B.Rs. 14,200
C.Rs. 14,400
D.Rs. 14,700
Answer: D.Rs. 14,700
Explanation: Let C = x.
Then, B = x + 5000 and A = x + 5000 + 4000 = x + 9000.
So, x + x + 5000 + x + 9000 = 50000
3x = 36000
x = 12000
A : B : C = 21000 : 17000 : 12000 = 21 : 17 : 12.
A's share = Rs. (35000 x 21/50) = Rs. 14,700.

Question: How many liters of a 40% iodine solution need to be mixed with 35 liters of a 20% iodine solution to create a 35% iodine solution?
A.35
B.49
C.100
D.105
Answer: D.105
Explanation: Solution 1:
Assume the iodine solution to be mixed = x lts.
Iodine = 0.4x lts, Water = 0.6x lts.
Solution 2: 35 liters of a 20% iodine solution
Iodine = 7 lts, Water = 28 lts.
Total iodine = 0.4x + 7
Total water = 0.6x + 28
The resultant is a 35% iodine solution.
Hence (0.4x + 7) / (x + 35) = 35/100
40x + 700 = 35x + 1225
5x = 525
x = 105 lts

Question: Tough and Tricky questions: Word Problems.
If Bill's salary increased by 16 percent, he would earn $812 per month. If instead, his salary were to increase by only 10 percent, how much money W would he earn per month?
A.$700
B.$754
C.$770
D.$782
Answer: C.$770
Explanation: OFFICIAL SOLUTION:
(C) If Bill’s salary increased by 16% he would earn $812. Algebraically, this can be written as:
$812 = 1.16S, where S is his current salary.
Then S = $812/1.16 = $700.
Now that we know his current salary is $700, we can calculate what his salary would be if it were increased by 10%. We know that 10% of $700 is $70, so his salary would be:
W=$700 + $70 = $770.
The correct answer is choice (C).

Average company salary * Number of employees = Total company salary
>>> $80,000 * 10 = $800,000
Subtract the combined salaries for the marketers (7 * $70,000) and the engineers (2 * $80,000)
>>> $800,000 - $490,000 - $160,000 = $150,000.
The correct answer is B.
Question: In a consumer survey, 88% of those surveyed liked at least one of three products: 1, 2, and 3. 55% of those asked liked product 1, 40% liked product 2, and 20% liked product 3. If 7% of the people in the survey liked all three of the products, what percentage of the survey participants liked more than one of the three products?
A.15
B.20
C.25
D.30
Answer: B.20
Explanation: 55 + 40 + 20 = 115
This number includes some people counted twice and some people counted three times.
115 - 88 = 27, and this number represents people counted twice or three times.
7% of the people are counted two extra times.
The percentage of people counted one extra time is 27 - 7(2) = 13.
The percentage of people who liked more than one product is 7% + 13% = 20%.
