Question: The ratio by weight, measured in pounds, of books to clothes to electronics in a suitcase initially stands at 7:4:3. Someone removes 8 pounds of clothing from the suitcase, thereby doubling the ratio of books to clothes. How many pounds do the electronics in the suitcase weigh?
A.6
B.8
C.10
D.12
Answer: D.12
Explanation: The weights of the items in the suitcase are 7k, 4k, and 3k.
If removing 8 pounds of clothes doubles the ratio of books to clothes, then 8 pounds represents half the weight of the clothes.
2k = 8 pounds and then k = 4 pounds.
The electronics weigh 3(4) = 12 pounds.

Question: One pump drains one-half of a pond in 4 hours, and then a second pump starts draining the pond. The two pumps working together finish emptying the pond in one-half hour. How long would it take the second pump to drain the pond if it had to do the job alone?
A.1 hour
B.1.1 hour
C.3 hours
D.5 hours
Answer: B.1.1 hour
Explanation: First pump drains 1/2 of the tank in 4 hours
so 8 hours it will take to drain the full tank.
Let, 2nd pump drains the full tank in a hours
so both together can drain (1/8+1/a) part in 1 hour
son in 1/2 hour they drain 1/2*(1/8+1/a) part of the tank
given that in 1/2 hour they drain 1/2 of the tank
hence we can say
1/2*(1/8+1/a) = 1/2
solving u get a = 8/7=1.1
Hence answer is B
Question: A solid yellow stripe is to be painted in the middle of a certain highway. If 1 gallon of paint covers an area of t square feet of highway, how many gallons of paint will be needed to paint a stripe of t inches wide on a stretch of highway m miles long? (1 mile = 5,280 feet and 1 foot = 12 inches)
A.(5,280 mt) / 12 t
B.(5,280 pt) / 12m
C.(5,280 pmt) /12
D.(5,280)(12m) / pt
Answer: A.(5,280 mt) / 12 t
Explanation: Given that: 1 gallon of paint covers an area oftsquare feet. Question:how many gallonsof paint will be needed ...
In any case you will have:(total area in square feet)/(gallons per feet)=(total area in square feet)/t, so t must be in the denominator: eliminate all but A and D.
Now, lets see where should be t: (area in square feet)=(width in feet)*(length in feet) --> width=tinchesas1 feet=12 inchesthent inches=t/12 feet, so (area in square feet)=(t/12) * (length in feet), so t must be in the nominator: only A is left.
Answer: A.
Question: 8^100 is divisible by 17. Find the remainder?
A.10
B.12
C.16
D.21
Answer: C.16
Explanation: This is an extremely difficult problem to solve with out Fermat's little theorem. By applying Fermat's little theorem , We know that 816 when divided by 17, the remainder is 1.
So divide 100 by 16 and find the remainder. Remainder = 4
Therefore, 100 = (16 × 6) + 4
Now this problem can be written as 810017 = 816×6+417 = (816)6×8417
Now this problem simply boils down to (1)6×8417 = 8417
84 = 82×82, we need to find the remainder when 64 × 64 is divisible by 17. Or 13 × 13 = 169. When 169 is divided by 17, remainder is 16.

Question: The rate of a certain chemical reaction is directly proportional to the square of the concentration of chemical A present and inversely proportional to the concentration of chemical W present. If the concentration of chemical W is increased by 100 percent, which of the following is closest to the percent change in the concentration of chemical A required to keep the reaction rate unchanged?
A.100% decrease
B.50% decrease
C.40% decrease
D.40% increase
Answer: D.40% increase
Explanation: Let A and W be the concentratrations of the individual chemicals.
Rate of chemical reaction = A^2/W
Since new B is increased by 100%
Rate = A^2/(2W)
For the rate to be constant, new value of A should be square root(2)
So new value of A = 1.414A
That means A is increased by 41.4%
Nearest solution is D

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 4 percent interest, compounded annually, what will be the approximate total amount of investment 36 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=4 it'll double in 70/4=~18 years (we are not asked about the exact amount so such an approximation will do). Thus in 36 years investment will double twice and become ($5,000*2)*2=$20,000 (after 18 years investment will become $5,000*2=$10,000 and in another 18 years it'll become $10,000*2=$20,000).

Question: A man cycles at a rate of 4 kmph. He cycles for 45 minutes and then takes a 15 minute break. Determine the total time taken to cover 12 kms by him.
A.3 hours 48 minutes
B.3 hours 49 minutes
C.3 hours 25 minutes
D.3 hours 45 minutes
Answer: D.3 hours 45 minutes
Explanation: Explanation:
Speed of man = 4kmph
Time for which he cycled = 45 minutes.
Distance covered = speed*time
=> 4*45/60
=> 3km
Total time to cover 3 km = 45 minutes + 15 minutes = 60 minutes = 1 hour
Thus 3 km is covered in 1 hour
Required distance to be covered = 12 km
Beginning from origin point, he covers 9 km in 3 hours taking 15 minutes rest after every 45 minutes. To complete 12 kms he goes another 3 km in 45 minutes.
Thus, total time he takes is 3 hours 45 minutes.

Question: The area of a square garden is A square feet and the perimeter is p feet. If a=2p+20, what is the perimeter of the garden, in feet?
A.28
B.36
C.40
D.56
Answer: C.40
Explanation: Perimeter of square = P
Side of square = P/4
Area of Square = (P^2)/16 =A
Given that A = 2P + 20
(P^2)/16 = 2P + 20
P^2 = 32P + 320
P^2 -32P -320 = 0
P^2 -40P +8P -320 = 0
P(P-40)+8(P+40) = 0
(P-40)(P+8) = 0
P = 40 or - 8
Discarding negative value , P = 40

Question: Mark bought a set of 6 flower pots of different sizes at a total cost of $8.25. Each pot cost 0.15 more than the next one below it in size. What was the cost, in dollars, of the largest pot?
A.$1.75
B.$1.85
C.$2.00
D.$2.15
Answer: A.$1.75
Explanation: This question can be solved with a handful of different Algebra approaches (as has been shown in the various posts). Since the question asks for the price of the largest pot, and the answers are prices, we can TEST THE ANSWERS.
We're told that there are 6 pots and that each pot costs 25 cents MORE than the next. The total price of the pots is $8.25. We're asked for the price of the largest (most expensive) pot.
Since the total price is $8.25 (a 15-cent increment) and the the difference in sequential prices of the pots is 15 cents, the largest pot PROBABLY has a price that is a 15-cent increment. From the answer choices, I would then TEST Answer A first
IF....
The largest pot = $1.75
1
1.15
1.3
1.45
1.6
1.75
Total = $8.25
So this MUST be the answer.

Since one dozen is rotten , he sells 5 dozen at 5 eggs per rupee.
Hence, S.P = Rs 12
Thus, Gain % = [(12 - 10.8) / 10.8] x 100 = 11 1/9%
