Question: A dealer offers a cash discount of 20%. Further, a customer bargains and receives 20 articles for the price of 15 articles. The dealer still makes a profit of 20%. How much percent T above the cost price were his articles marked?
A.100%
B.80%
C.75%
D.66+2/3%
Answer: A.100%
Explanation: Good question...2:11 min
Marked Price (M) = Cost Price (C) + Mark up...(EQN. A)
Selling price = 20% Discount over M = 0.8*M
Given that, a customer bargains and receives 20 articles for the price of 15 articles-->*afurther loss of 25%to the dealer--> BUT aNET PROFIT of 20%over cost price (C)
0.75* 0.8 * M =1.2 * C
Hence, M/C = 2/1 = 200%=T
From Eqn. A , (C + Mark up)/C = 200% -->Mark up / C = 100%
Ans. A
Question: Given a Number 123456, from this number put any three values in numerator and remaining three are in denominator. So how many values you can make from this number less than 1/5.
A.2
B.6
C.7
D.87
Answer: D.87
Explanation: Explanation:
If the given value is 120, then denominator should be slightly greater than 600. If for 130, it is 650. So if we take numerator as 132, then denominator should be greater than 660 which is not possible as we have only 5 and 4 available. So numerator is less than 130. The following numbers are possible.
123/654, 123/645, 124/635, 124/653, 125/634, 125/643.

Explanation: Cost of the camel = P
10 camels = 24 horses
16 horses = 4 oxen
6 oxen = 4 elephants
10 elephants = Rs.130000
P = Rs.[(24 * 4 * 4 * 130000)/(10 * 16 * 6 * 10)]
P = Rs.(49920000/9600) => P = Rs.5200

Question: A certain car dealership offers its newest model in ten exterior and ten interior colors. If the seven interior colors are identical to the seven exterior colors, and the dealership sells every pair of colors except those that would result in a car with an identically colored interior and exterior, how many different color combinations are possible?
A.45
B.81
C.90
D.10!/2!
Answer: A.45
Explanation: I lined up the 10 different colours for Exterion and Interior like this:
E: A B C D E F G H I J
I: A B C D E F G H I J
I calculated the number of combinations: 10*10= 100 combinations.
But, from these 100 we need to delete sth: the same colours.
There are 10 possible pairs of coulours that will be the same. So, I deleted these 10 pairs from 100, resulting in 45.
Mind here, that the 10 do not result in 20 colours, because 1 pair is one unit that is not allowed. So, 10 units are not allowed (surprised that 80 wasn't among the answer options to confuse test takers...).

Question: In a group of 25 factory workers, 17 have brown eyes. Six of the women do not have brown eyes. How many of the 11 men have brown eyes.
A.10
B.9
C.8
D.7
Answer: B.9
Explanation: Total number of worker (M+W): 25
No. of men (M): 11 (Inferred fromHow many of the 11 men)
No. of women (W): 14
Total no. of workers who have brown eyes (B): 17
No. of women who do not have brown eyes: 6
Therefore, no. of women who have brown eyes: W - 6 = 14 - 6 = 8
Remaining 9 are men. (B - 8= 17 - 8= 9)
So 9 out of 11 men have brown eyes.

Question: If Q is a positive integer, which of the following must be odd?
A.Q+1
B.Q^2+Q
C.Q^2+Q+1
D.x^2−1
Answer: C.Q^2+Q+1
Explanation: A. Q+1 = can be odd or even. Since O + O =E or E + O = O
B. Q^2 + Q = Q(Q+1). Since from the above derivation we already know the term Q+1 can be Odd or Even, directly substitute here. Q(ODD) = Even (When Q is Even) or Q(EVEN) = EVEN [When Q is ODD]
C. Here's the answer. Since we know the term Q^2 + Q can always take a EVEN number, EVEN + 1 = ODD
Hence C.

2nd
When the cylinder is spun for the first and last time, the following six outcomes are possible:
First:
First chamber is fired first. The first player loses.
Second:
Second chamber is fired first. The first player loses.
Third:
Third chamber is fired first. The first player loses.
Fourth:
Fourth chamber is fired first. The second player loses. (First shot, player 1, chamber 4 empty. Second shot player 2, chamber 5, empty. Third shot player 1, chamber 6 empty. Fourth shot player 2, chamber 1 not empty.)
Fifth:
Fifth chamber is fired first. The first player loses. (First shot, player 1, chamber 5 empty. Second shot player 2, chamber 6, empty. Third shot player 1, chamber 1 not empty.)
Sixth:
Sixth chamber is fired first. The second player loses. (First shot, player 1, chamber 6 empty. Second shot, player 2, chamber 1, not empty)
Thus, if you analyze, you will find that the second player has a 4/6 chance of winning. Therefore if you want to win the game, going second gives you better shot at it.

Question: A train speeds past a pole in 15 seconds and a platform 120 meters long in 25 seconds. What is the length of the train (in meters)?
A.100 m
B.140 m
C.130 m
D.180 m
Answer: D.180 m
Explanation: Let the length of the train be x meters.
The speed of the train is x / 15.
Then, x + 120 = 25*(x / 15)
10x = 1800
x = 180 meters
The answer is D.
Question: A can be divided by 11 with no remainder. Which of the following expressions could be divided by 11 leaving a remainder of 1?
A.A-20
B.A-12
C.A-9
D.A-10
Answer: D.A-10
Explanation: since A is a multiple of 11, we could very well say A = 11K (where K is 1,2...n).
The condition here should now be
11K + 1 = <operation> such that it gives us an integer
11k +1 = A -20 => A = 11K + 21 Not divisible by 11
11K +1 = A -12 => A = 11K + 31 Not Divisible by 11
11K +1 = A -9 => A = 11K + 10 Not Divisible by 11
11K +1 = A -10 => A = 11K + 11 Divisible by 11
11K +1 = A -13 => A = 11K + 14 Not Divisible by 11
Answer therefore is A -10
ANSWER:D
Question: On a certain day, orangeade was made by mixing a certain amount of orange juice with an equal amount of water. On the next day, orangeade was made by mixing the same amount of orange juice with twice the amount of water. On both days, all the orangeade that was made was sold. If the revenue from selling the orangeade was the same for both days and if the orangeade was sold at $0.40 per glass on the first day, what was the price per glass on the second day?
A.$0.15
B.$0.26
C.$0.30
D.$0.40
Answer: B.$0.26
Explanation: On the first day 1 unit of orange juice and 1 unit of water was used to make 2 units of orangeade;
On the second day 1 unit of orange juice and 2 units of water was used to make 3 units of orangeade;
So, the ratio of the amount of orangeade made on the first day to the amount of orangeade made on the second day is 2 to 3. Naturally the ratio of the # of glasses of orangeade made on the first day to the # of glasses of orangeade made on the second day is 2 to 3.
We are told thatthe revenue from selling the orangeade was the same for both daysso the revenue from 2 glasses on the first day equals to the revenue from 3 glasses on the second day.
Say the price of the glass of the orangeade on the second day was $x then 2*0.4=3*x --> x=$0.26.
Answer: B.
