Question: A positive number x is multiplied by 2, and this product is then divided by 5. If the positive square root of the result of these two operations equals x, what is the value of x ?
A. 9/4
B. 3/2
C. 4/3
D. 2/3
Answer: B. 3/2
Explanation: We need to produce an equation from the information given in the problem stem. We are first given that x is multiplied by 2 and then the product is divided by 3. This gives us:
2x/3
Next we are given that the positive square root of the result (which is 2x/3) is equal to x. This gives us
√(2x/3) = x
2x/3 = x^2
2x = 3x^2
3x^2 – 2x = 0
x(3x – 2) = 0
x = 0 or
3x – 2 = 0
3x = 2
x = 3/2
Because x is positive, x = 3/2. The answer is B.
Question: A teacher gave the same test to three history classes: A, B, and C. The average (arithmetic mean) scores for the three classes were 65, 85, and 77, respectively.

Question: Which of the following is equivalent to the pair of inequalities x + 8 > 10 and x - 4 <= 5 ?
A. 2 < x < 16
B. 2 <= x < 4
C. 2 < x <= 9
D. 4 < x <= 8
Answer: C. 2 < x <= 9
Explanation: Solution:
Let’s isolate x in both inequalities, starting with x + 8 > 10.
x + 8 > 10
x > 2
Next we isolate x in the inequality x – 4  5.
x – 4 <= 5
x <= 9
Bringing these two inequalities together we know:
2 < x <= 9
The answer is C.

Question: If a two-digit positive integer has its digits reversed, the resulting integer differs from the original by 45. By how much do the two digits differ?
A.3
B.4
C.5
D.6
Answer: C.5
Explanation: we are given that if the integer N has its digits reversed the resulting integer differs from the original by 45. First let’s express the reversed number in a similar fashion to the way in which we expressed the original integer.
10B + A = reversed integer
Since we know the resulting integer differs from the original by 45 we can say:
10B + A – (10A + B) = 45
10B + A – 10A – B = 45
9B – 9A = 45
B – A = 5
Since B is the tens digit and A is the units digit, we can say that the digits differ by 5.
The answer is C.

Question: ----------------YES---------NO----UNSURE Subject M----500--------200-----100 Subject R----400--------100-----300 A total of 800 students were asked whether they found two subjects, M and R, interesting. Each answer was either yes or no or unsure, and the numbers of students who gave these answers are listed in the table above. If 150 students answered yes only for subject M, how many of the students did not answer yes for either subject?
A.100
B.250
C.300
D.400
Answer: B.250
Explanation: Since 150 students answered yes only for subject M, then the remaining 350 students who answered yes for subject M, also answered yes for subject R. So, 350 students answered yes for both subjects.
If 350 students answered yes for both subjects, then 400-350=50 students answered yes only for subject R.
So, we have that:
200 students answered yes only for subject M;
50 students answered yes only for subject R;
300 students answered yes for both subjects;
Therefore 800-(200+50+300)=250 students did not answer yes for either subject.

Question: We have 36kg flour and 60kg sugar in stock and we would like to use the minimum number of packs that would have the same weight for both flour and sugar. How much more sugar is required if we would like to full 10 packs either of flour or sugar?
A.12
B.18
C.20
D.24
Answer: D.24
Explanation: k is the integer that represents kg of pack
ak = 36 --> k = 36/a
bk = 60 --> k = 60/b
36/a = 60/b --> 5a = 3b and then k=12 for min(a+b)
a=36/12=3 , b=60/12=5
Total number of packs = 3+5 = 8
10-8=2 packs more required
2 *12 = 24 kg more sugar required to have 10 packs.

Question: You are visiting your friend. When you walk in her room, you find that there are seven girls. Each of the seven girls have seven bags which consist of 7 adult cats each. Now, each of the adult cat has seven little cats as well along with them.
We know that each cat has four legs, can you find out the total number of legs in the room?
A.26197
B.23578
C.10992
D.14728
Answer: C.10992
Explanation: C
10992
Each girl has seven bags with seven adult cats each.
Also, each adult cat has seven little cats.
Thus each girl has 49 adult cats and 343 little cats.
Hence, seven girls will have
343 adult cats and 2410 little cats.
If we calculate the number of legs now.
Girls = 7 * 2 = 14
Cats + Little cats = 2744 * 4 = 10976
Total legs = 10976 + 14 = 10990
Since I also walked in the room, there will be two more legs.
Now total legs = 10990 + 2 = 10992.

Question: An automobile financier claims to be lending money at S.I., but he includes the interest every six months for calculating the principal. If he is charging an interest of 10%, the effective rate of interest becomes?
A.10.28%
B.10.25%
C.10.85%
D.30.25%
Answer: B.10.25%
Explanation: Let the sum be Rs. 100. Then,
S.I. for first 6 months = (100 * 10 *1) / (100 * 2) = Rs. 5
S.I. for last 6 months = (105 * 10 * 1) / (100 * 2) = Rs. 5.25
So, amount at the end of 1 year = (100 + 5 + 5.25) = Rs. 110.25
Effective rate = (110.25 - 100) = 10.25%.
