Question: A feed store sells two varieties of birdseed: Brand A, which is 40% millet and 60% sunflower, and Brand B, which is 65% millet and 35% safflower. If a customer purchases a mix of the two types of birdseed that is 50% millet, what percent of the mix is Brand B?
A.40%
B.45%
C.50 %
D.60 %
Answer: A.40%
Explanation: Yes there is a simple method :
Consider the following method
Brand A : 40% millet and 60% sunflower
Brand B : 65% millet and 35% safflower
Mix : 50% millet
Here the weighted average is 50%,
Now Brand A has 40% millet, which is 10% less than the weighted average of mix = - 0.10 A --------------- I
Similarly, Brand B has 65 % millet, which is 15 % more than the weighted average of mix = + 0.15 B ------------ II
Now, both Brand A and Brand B are combined to give a 50% mix containing millet, so equate I and II
implies, 0.10 A = 0.15 B
Therefore A/B = 0.15/0.10 = 3/2
A : B : (A + B) = 3 : 2 : (3+2) = 3 : 2 : 5
We have to find, percent of the mix is Brand B i.e. B : (A + B) = 2 : 5 = (2 / 5) * 100 = 40 %
Here is a pictorial representation :
Brand A= 40%------------------------10% or 0.10 below average, A times-----------------Total below = - 0.10 A
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Average = 50% or 0.50
Brand B = 65 %--------------------------15% or 0.15 above average, B times-----------------Total above = + 0.15 B
Since the amount below the average has to equal the average above the average; therefore,
0.10 A = 0.15 B
A/B = 3/2
A:B: Total = 3:2:5
Therefore
B/Total = 2:5 = 40 %
Answer: A
Question: If money is invested at r percent interest, compounded annually, the amount of investment will double in approximately 70/r years. If Pat's parents invested $ 5000 in a long term bond that pays 8 percent interest, compounded annually, what will be the approximate total amount of investment 18 years later, when Pat is ready for college?
A.$20000
B.$15000
C.$12000
D.$10000
Answer: A.$20000
Explanation: Since investment doubles in 70/r years then for r=8 it'll double in 70/8=~9 years (we are not asked about the exact amount so such an approximation will do). Thus in 18 years investment will double twice and become ($5,000*2)*2=$20,000 (after 9 years investment will become $5,000*2=$10,000 and in another 9 years it'll become $10,000*2=$20,000).

Question: Find large number from below question The difference of two numbers is 1500. On dividing the larger number by the smaller, we get 6 as quotient and the 15 as remainder
A.1234
B.1345
C.1456
D.1797
Answer: D.1797
Explanation: Let the smaller number be x. Then larger number = (x + 1500).
x + 1500 = 6x + 15
5x = 1485
x = 297
Large number = 297+1500 = 1797

Question: The average age of husband, wife and their child 3 years ago was 27 years and that of wife and the child 5 years ago was 20 years. The present age of the husband is:
A.35 years
B.40 years
C.50 years
D.None of these
Answer: B.40 years
Explanation: EXPLANATION
Sum of the present ages of husband, wife and child = (27 x 3 + 3 x 3) years = 90 years.
Sum of the present ages of wife and child = (20 x 2 + 5 x 2) years = 50 years.
Husband’s present age = (90 – 50) years = 40 years.

Question: A store sells a certain product at a fixed price per unit. At the product's current price, w units cost a total of exactly $300. If the price were lowered by $5 from its current value, then w + 2n units would cost exactly $300; if the price were raised by $5, then w – n units would cost exactly $300. What is the value of w?
A.10
B.15
C.20
D.25
Answer: C.20
Explanation: It got too complicated when I used algebra. Using plugging in, it was quite fast.
Price Quantity total value
p w pw = 300
p-5 w+2n (p-5)(w+2n) = 300
p+5 w-n (p+5)(w-n) = 300
Solving three equations for three unknowns. Tough!!
Plugging in, I always start with C. C was the answer here, so saved calculation!
Putting values in above equations:
Price Quantity total value
15 20 300
10 20+2n 300 -> 10(20 + 2n)=300 -> 200 +20n = 300 -> 20n = 100 -> n =5
20 15 300
So w = 20 satisfies all equations!!

Question: In a certain warehouse, 50 percent of the packages weigh less than 75 pounds, and a total of 48 packages weigh less than 25 pounds. If 80 percent of the packages weigh at least 25 pounds, how many of the packages weigh at least 25 pounds but less than 75 pounds?
A.8
B.64
C.72
D.102
Answer: C.72
Explanation: If 80% of the packages weigh at least 25 pounds
This means that 20% of the packages weigh LESS THAN 25 pounds
Let T = TOTAL number of packages
So, 20% of T = # of packages that weigh LESS THAN 25 pounds
48 packages weigh LESS THAN 25 pounds
GREAT. So, 20% of T = 48
Rewrite to get: 0.2T = 48
Solve:T = 240
50% of the packages weigh less than 75 pounds
So, 50% ofT= number of packages that weigh less than 75 pounds
50% of240=120, so120packages weigh less than 75 pounds
OF THOSE120packages that weigh less than 75 pounds,48packages weigh less than 25 pounds.
So, the number of packages that weight BETWEEN 25 and 75 pounds =120-48= 72 = C

Question: If watches bought at prices ranging from Rs 200 to Rs 350 are sold at prices ranging from Rs 300 to Rs 425. What is the greatest possible profit that might be made in selling eight watches?
A.Rs 900
B.Rs 800
C.Rs 1,800
D.Rs 2,800
Answer: B.Rs 800
Explanation: Profit would be maximum if watches are brought for Rs 200 and sold for Rs 425
Profit = Rs (425 - 200) = Rs 225
Profit of 8 watches = Rs 225 x 8 = Rs 1,800

Question: If two sides of a triangle are 10 and 8, which of the following could be the area of triangle?
1. 35
2. 48
3. 56
A.a) 1 only
B.b) 1 and 2 only
C.c) 1 and 3 only
D.d) 2 and 3 only
Answer: C.c) 1 and 3 only
Explanation: when two sides of a triangle are known , the maximum area occurs when the angle between those two sides is 90.
lets say base = 12 , height =8 (angle = 90)
maximum area = (1/2)*12*8 = 48 ( this is the same maximum area even when base is 8 and height is 12).
if we fix the base and keep lowering the angle, it will result in a lower height . hence the resulting area will always be < 48.
C,D and E are ruled out.
1 and 3 are possible areas as their areas are less than 48.
Hence the answer is C.
Question: One pipe can fill a tank three times as fast as another pipe. If together the two pipes can fill tank in 36 min, then the slower pipe alone will be able to fill the tank in?
A.144
B.125
C.130
D.160
Answer: A.144
Explanation: Let the slower pipe alone fill the tank in x min.
Then, faster pipe will fill it in x/3 min.
1/x + 3/x = 1/36
4/x = 1/36 => x = 144 min

Question: A car left town A towards town B driving at a speed of V = 32 km/hr. After 3 hours on the road the driver stopped for 15 min in town C. Because of a closed road he had to change his route, making the trip 28 km longer. He increased his speed to V = 40 km/hr but still he was 30 min late. Find:
a) The distance the car has covered.
b) The time that took it to get from C to B.
A.223
B.277
C.116
D.268
Answer: C.116
Explanation: From the statement of the problem we don't know if the 15 min stop in town C was planned or it was unexpected. So we have to consider both cases.
1st case. The stop was planned. Let us consider only the trip from C to B, and let xx be the number of hours the driver spent on this trip.
Then the distance from C to B is S=40⋅xS=40⋅x km. If the driver could use the initial route, it would take him x−3060=x−12x−3060=x−12 hours to drive from C to B. The distance from C to B according to the initially itinerary was (x−12)⋅32(x−12)⋅32 km, and this distance is 2828 km shorter than 40⋅x40⋅x km. Then we have the equation
(x−1/2)⋅32+28=40x(x−1/2)⋅32+28=40x
32x−16+28=40x32x−16+28=40x
−8x=−12−8x=−12
8x=128x=12
x=128x=128
x=148=112=13060=x=148=112=13060= 1 hr 30 min.
So, the car covered the distance between C and B in 1 hour and 30 min.
The distance from A to B is 3⋅32+128⋅40=96+60=1563⋅32+128⋅40=96+60=156 km.
2nd case. The driver did not plan the stop at C. Suppose it took xx hours for him to get from C to B. Then the distance is S=40⋅xS=40⋅x km. It took x−3060−1560=x−4560=x−34x−3060−1560=x−4560=x−34 h to drive from C to B. The distance from C to B is 32(x−34)32(x−34) km, which is 2828 km shorter than 40⋅x40⋅x, i.e.
32(x−34)+28=40x32(x−34)+28=40x
32x−24+28=40x32x−24+28=40x
4=8x4=8x
x=12hr⋅x=30min.x=12hr⋅x=30min. Then the time of the trip from C to B was 30 min. The distance covered equals 3⋅32+12⋅40=96+20=116km3⋅32+12⋅40=96+20=116km.

Question: How many keystrokes are needed to type numbers from 1 to 1000 on a standard keyboard?
A.2893
B.3000
C.5213
D.5642
Answer: A.2893
Explanation: Explanation :
While typing numbers from 1 to 1000, we have 9 single digit numbers from 1 to 9. Each of them requires one keystroke. That is 9 key strokes.
There are 90 two-digit numbers, from 10 to 99. Each of these numbers requires 2 keystrokes. Therefore, one requires 180 keystrokes to type the 2 digit numbers.
There are 900 three-digit numbers, from 100 to 999. Each of these numbers requires 3 keystrokes. Therefore, one requires 2700 keystrokes to type these 3 digit numbers.
And,1000 is a four-digit number which requires 4 keystrokes.
Hence, total 9+180+2700+4= 2893 keystrokes is required.
