Question: Trains A and B start simultaneously from stations 200 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 20 miles per hour and 20 miles per hour, respectively, how many miles will Train A have traveled when the trains pass each other, to the nearest mile?
A. 100
B. 133
C. 150
D. 167
Answer: A. 100
Explanation: Since we know the distance (200) and the combined rate (40), we plug it into the formula:
Distance = Rate * Time
200 = 40 * 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 200/40 from dividing 40 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 = 20 * 5
Distance = 100 according to answer choice A.

Question: A certain ball team has an equal number of right- and left-handed players. On a certain day, two-thirds of the players were absent from practice. Of the players at practice that day, two-third were right handed. What is the ratio of the number of right-handed players who were not at practice that day to the number of left handed players who were not at practice?
A.1/3
B.2/3
C.5/7
D.7/5
Answer: C.5/7
Explanation: Say the total number of players is 18, 9 right-handed and 9 left-handed.
On a certain day, two-thirds of the players were absent from practice --> 12 absent and 6 present.
Of the players at practice that day, one-third were right-handed --> 6*2/3=4 were right-handed and 2 left-handed.
The number of right-handed players who were not at practice that day is 9-4=5.
The number of left-handed players who were not at practice that days is 9-2=7.
The ratio = 5/7.

Question: Baseball's World Series matches 2 teams against each other in a best-of-seven series. The first team to win four games wins the series and no subsequent games are played. If you have no special information about either of the teams, what is the probability Y that the World Series will consist of fewer than 7 games?
A. 12.5%
B. 25%
C. 31.25%
D. 68.75%
Answer: D. 68.75%
Explanation: Your explanation is very close toManhattan GMAT's official answer - it's quite uncanny:
"There are many other ways this could happen. Using the permutation formula, there are 6!/(3!)(3!) = 20 ways for the two teams to split the first 6 games (3 wins for each).
There are then 2 possible outcomes to break the tie in Game 7. Thus, there are a total of 202 = 40 ways for the World Series to last the full 7 games.
The probability that any one of these 40 ways occurs can be calculated from the fact that the probability of a team winning a game equals the probability of a team losing a game = 1/2.
Given that 7 distinct events must happen in any 7 game series, and that each of these events has a probability of 1/2, the probability that any one particular 7 game series occurs is.
Since there are 40 possible different 7 game series, the probability that the World Series will last exactly 7 games is: (1/2)^7 = 1/128
40*1/128 = 40/128 = 31.25%
Thus the probability Y that the World Series will last less than 7 games is 100% - 31.25% = 68.75%.
The correct answer is D."

Question: Two varieties of wheat - A and B costing Rs. 9 per kg and Rs. 15 per kg were mixed in the ratio 3 : 7. If 5 kg of the mixture is sold at 25% profit, find the profit made?
A.Rs.16.90
B.Rs.16.59
C.Rs.16.60
D.Rs.16.50
Answer: D.Rs.16.50
Explanation: Let the quantities of A and B mixed be 3x kg and 7x kg.
Cost of 3x kg of A = 9(3x) = Rs. 27x
Cost of 7x kg of B = 15(7x) = Rs. 105x
Cost of 10x kg of the mixture = 27x + 105x = Rs. 132x
Cost of 5 kg of the mixture = 132x/10x (5) = Rs. 66
Profit made in selling 5 kg of the mixture = 25/100 (cost of 5 kg of the mixture) = 25/100 * 66 =Rs.16.50

A.153550 m^2
B.153600 m^2
C.153700 m^2
D.153800 m^2
Answer: B.153600 m^2
Explanation: Explanation:
Perimeter = Distance covered in 8 min. = 12000 x 8 m = 1600 m.
60
Let length = 3x metres and breadth = 2x metres.
Then, 2(3x + 2x) = 1600 or x = 160.
Length = 480 m and Breadth = 320 m.
Area = (480 x 320) m2 = 153600 m^2.

Question: Let S be the set {1, 2, 3, . . . , n} consisting of the first n positive integers.
What is the maximum value of n for which every 100-element subset of
S contains two integers which differ by 25 ?
A.171
B.172
C.173
D.174
Answer: D.174
Explanation: Let n be as large as possible so that every 100-element subset of S contains two integers
differing by 25. Observe that the set
A = {1, 2, . . . , 25} [ {51, 52, . . . , 75} [ {101, 102, . . . , 125} [ {151, 152, . . . , 175}
has 100 elements no two of which differ by 25. So n 174. We show now that S = {1, 2, . . . , 174}
has the property that every 100-element subset of S contains two integers differing by 25. For
0 j 24, let Tj be the subset of S consisting of the integers from S that have a remainder of j
when we divide by 25. The sets Tj have no common elements. If S0 is a subset of S consisting of
exactly 100 elements, then there are exactly 74 elements of S not in S0. These must lie in the 25
sets Tj . One of the sets Tj contains at most 2 of these 74 elements of S not in S0 (by the pigeon-hole
principle). Fix such a j. Since Tj contains at least 6 elements, the intersection Tj \S0 contains two
consecutive elements of Tj , that is two elements of Tj that differ by 25. Thus, S has the property
that every 100-element subset of S contains two integers differing by 25
correct answer D
