Question: Mr. Jones sold two pipes at $2 each. Based on the cost, his profit one was 40% and his loss on the other was 20%. On the sale of the pipes. Find the amount of his profit or loss?
A.lost 10 cents
B.lost 4 cents
C.broke even
D.gained 40 cents
Answer: D.gained 40 cents
Explanation: 40 % profit on $ 2
= $ 40/100 × 2
= $ 0.40 × 2
= $ 0.80
Similarly, 20 % loss on $ 2
= $ 20/100 × 2
= $ 0.20 ×2
= $ 0.40
Therefore, in one pipe his profit is $ 0.80 and in the other pipe his loss is $ 0.40
so profit is 40 cents..

Question: By travelling at 40 kmph, a person reaches his destination on time. He covered two-third the total distance in one-third of the total time. What speed should he maintain for the remaining distance to reach his destination on time?
A.20
B.99
C.77
D.63
Answer: A.20
Explanation: Let the time taken to reach the destination be 3x hours. Total distance = 40 * 3x = 120x km
He covered 2/3 * 120x = 80x km in 1/3 * 3x = x hours So, the remaining 40x km, he has to cover in 2x hours. Required speed = 40x/2x = 20 kmph.

At the end of the year, during which he made no additional deposits or withdrawals, he had y dollars in the account. If James had invested the same amount in an account which pays interest on a yearly basis, what must the interest rate be for James to have y dollars at the end of the year?
A.22.04%
B.16.12%
C.12.5%
D.18.25%
Answer: C.12.5%
Explanation: Per quarter, interest = 3% So for a year, interest = 12% Due to quarter cumulation, effective yield (YTM) would be slight higher than 12% Answer = 12.5% =ANSWER:C
Question: If 9 is a factor of 2z, then which of the following may not be an integer?
A.6z/54 + 2z/3
B.(4z-18)/9
C.(2z+27)/9
D.(81-4z^2)/81
Answer: A.6z/54 + 2z/3
Explanation: I got the right answer A after plugging in 18 for z.
While going through Kaplan's explanation, I couldn't understand the part about choice A.
"6z/54 + 2z/3 = 3/6 * 2z/9 + 2z/3.
Since 9 is a factor of 2z, 3 is also factor of 2z. So 2z/3 is an integer, as is 2z/9. But 3/6 = 1/2, so if 2z/9 is not even, the expression 3/6 * 2z/9 will not be even."
But, isn't 2z/9 always even? 9 is a factor of 2z, which means that we could have 2(9), 2(2)(9), 2(3)(9), and so forth. The 9 in the denominator cancels out the 9 in the numerator. So we are left with 2 * something. So 2z/9 is even.A

Question: There are how many 4-digit even numbers if the first digit cannot be a zero?
A.3,600
B.3,645
C.4,500
D.4,999
Answer: C.4,500
Explanation: FIRST, lets write down the restrictions
1) these are four digit even numbers, so first digit can be 1 to 9, and the units digit can be 2,4,6,8, or 0..
2) any number of repetition can be done..
Now, lets work out a solution on these restrictions
1) units digit= any of five even digits.. 0,2,4,6,8..
2) at tens and hundreds position any of the ten digits can be placed ..
3) at thousands place, any of the 10 except 0 can be placed...
the ways= 5*10*10*9= 4500
another way
1) what are the different ways without any restriction =10*10*10*10=10,000..
2) out of these ways in which first digit is 0...= 1*10*10*10=1000..
3) Remaining= 10000-1000=9000
4) Half of 9000 will be even and other half odd.. so even = 9000/2=4500..

Question: At the beginning of 2007, Atlantis Investing had 7000 Stocks and 5000 Dividends. At the end of 2007, Atlantis Investing had 9500 Stocks and 8000 Dividends. By approximately what percent did the ratio of Stocks to Dividends decrease from the beginning to end of the year
A.0.6%
B.3.2%
C.7.8%
D.15.2%
Answer: D.15.2%
Explanation: Beginning: stocks/dividend = 7000/5000 =560/400
Ending: stocks/dividend = 9500/8000 =475/400
ASIDE: It's useful to write both ratios with the same denominator. This allows us to IGNORE the denominator and focus solely on the numerators.
So, our ratio went from 560/400 to 475/400
Ignoring the denominators, we went from 560 to 475
The percent change = 100(difference in values)/(original value)
= (100)(560-475)/560
= (100)(85)/560)
= (100)(0.152)
≈ 15.2...

D.D)300
Answer: C.C)290
Explanation: Let the smaller number be x. Then larger number = (x + 1465).
x + 1465 = 6x + 15
5x = 1450
x = 290
Smaller number = 290.

Question: A train running at a speed of 36 km/h passes an electric pole in 14 seconds. In how many seconds will the whole train pass a 360-meter long platform?
A.44
B.46
C.48
D.50
Answer: D.50
Explanation: Let the length of the train be x meters.
When a train crosses an electric pole, the distance covered is its own length x.
speed = 36 km/h = 36000 m / 3600 s = 10 m/s
x = 14 * 10 = 140 m.
The time taken to pass the platform = (140 +360)/ 10 = 50 seconds
The answer is D.
Question: In what time will a train 350 m long cross an electric pole, it its speed be 144 km/hr?

Question: A discount electronics store normally sells all merchandise at a discount of 10 percent to 30 percent off the suggested retail price. If, during a special sale, an additional 15 percent were to be deducted from the discount price, what would be the lowest possible price of an item costing $260 before any discount?
A. $130.00
B. $145.60
C. $154.70
D. $182.00
Answer: C. $154.70
Explanation: Since the question is essentially just about multiplication, you can do the various mathstepsin a variety of ways (depending on whichever method you find easiest).
We're told that the first discount is 10% to 30%, inclusive. We're told that the next discount is 20% off of the DISCOUNTED price....
We're told to MAXIMIZE the discount (thus, 30% off the original price and then 20% off of the discounted price). Thatmathcan be written in a number of different ways (fractions, decimals, etc.):
30% off = (1 - .3) = (1 - 30/100) = (.7) and the same can be done with the 20% additional discount...
The final price of an item that originally cost $260 would be.....
($260)(.7)(.85) =
($260)(.595)=154.7

Question: In how many different ways can change be provided for a one dollar bill using pennies (1 cent), nickels (5 cents), dimes (10 cents), and quarters (25 cents), if at least two of each type of coin must be included?
A.0
B.6
C.8
D.10
Answer: B.6
Explanation: I. Case I = Four Quarters = this is impossible, because if we already have a dollar in quarters, then we cannot have any other coins. We cannot have all four coins represented if we have four quarters.
Case I does not allow any ways.
II. Case II = Three Quarters (75 cents)
This does not allow for two each of the other coins.
Case II does not allow any ways.
III. Case III = Two Quarters (50 cents)
This allows for 2-3 dimes.
Subcase 1 = 2 Q, 3 D (80 cents)
(2 ways) we could have 2-3 nickels
Subcase 2 = 2 Q, 2 D (70 cents)
(4 ways) we could have 2-5 nickels
Case III allows for a total of 6 ways
There's no other case, because we have to have at least two quarters and two dimes. The total over the cases equals
Total = 0 + 0+ 6 =6 ways.

Question: A shoemaker can make 10 shoes per day. One-fifth of the shoes produced are defective and one-quarter of all shoes produced are rejected. If one-tenth of the nondefective shoes are rejected by mistake, and if all the shoes not rejected are sold, then what percent of the shoes sold are defective?
A.1%
B.2%
C.3%
D.4%
Answer: D.4%
Explanation: We have 20% defective and 80% non-defective; we have 25% rejected and 75% not rejected. We also know that 1/10 of the non-defective ones (8%) are rejected, so 72% sold. This means that we have 3% sold that are defective and 17% rejected that are defective. Overall, we have 3%/75% or 1 of every 25 that are sold (not rejected) and defective. Correct answer is D
Question: Set E consists of 19 elements. The average of set E is L. If a new element is added to the set and the average grows by K, what is the value of the new element?
A.a) L(1 + K / 5)
B.b) L * (K/100) - 20L
C.c) 20L(1+K/100)
D.d) 20(1+K/100)-19L
Answer: A.a) L(1 + K / 5)
Explanation: Let's assume the value of new element to bea. So converting the word problem into equation,
(19*L + a) / (19 + 1) = L + k ==> after solving the equation we will get a (value of newly added element) = L + 20K
But according to the answer options, problem writer wanted to conveyk% percent rise in average value.
If we consider this case than resulting equation will be,
(19*L + a) / ( 19+1 ) = L + (K/100)*L ==> 19L + a = 20 [ L + KL/100]
==> a= 20L + KL/5 -19L
==> a= L + KL/5 , which is equivalent to option [A]

Question: While flying over the Pacific, an airplane makes a 25° turn to the right to avoid a storm. If, as a result, the airplane is traveling in a direction 8° east of north, in what direction was it originally flying?
A.(a) 30° west of north
B.(b) 30° east of north
C.(c) 17° west of north
D.(d) 17° east of north
Answer: C.(c) 17° west of north
Explanation: If after a turn of 25° you are 8°NEast, with a 17° turn you would be perfectly pointing at north. So you were, before the turn, 17° to the other side (West).

Question: For integers x and y, if 91x = 8y, which of the following must be true?
I. The cube root of x is an integer
II. y > x
III. y/7 is an integer
A.I only
B.II only
C.III only
D.I and II
Answer: C.III only
Explanation: Statement 2: y>x
When y=x=0, equation holds but y is not greater than x
When x=-8 and y=-91, equation again holds but x>y
NOT TRUE
Statement 3: y/7 is an integer
Since x and y are integers, 91x and 8y must also be integers.
It is given that 91x=8y
or 13*7*x = 8 y
or 13x = 8y/7
To balance the equation, y/7 must be an integer
TRUE
Statement 1: The cube root of x is an integer
x can be equal to 2*2*2*3 and for this value of x,y will be 13*7*3
So, x may or may not be a cube root.
NOT TRUE
Answer:-C
Question: George is 8 years more than Christopher and Ford is 2 years younger than Christopher. The sum of their ages is 60. Find the ages of George.
A.25
B.26
C.27
D.28
Answer: B.26
Explanation: Christopher age = x
George age, y = x + 8---------->(1)
Ford age, z = x - 2------------>(2)
Sum of their ages, x+y+z=60---->(3)
Substitute z and y values in equation (3)
Therefore, x+(x+8)+(x-2)=60
=> 3x+8-2=60
=> 3x=60-6
=> 3x=54 =>x=54/3
x=18(Christopher's age)
Substitute x value in equation 1 & 2
y=x+8
y=18+8
y=26
ANSWER:B
Question: A rectangular football field is fenced on all four sides. The length of the football field is twice the length of its breadth. The cost of fencing the field was $300. The football management has decided to change the dimensions of field by increasing the breadth by 50% of its original value and reducing the length by 25% of its original value and fence the field again.. What will be the cost of the new fencing?
A.$300
B.$180
C.$425
D.$405
Answer: A.$300
Explanation: Let's take x to be the breadth. Then the length of the football field is 2x.
The perimeter of the old football field is x + 2x + x + 2x = 6x.
Now, for the new football field:
The new breadth = 1.5 times old breadth = 1.5x
The new length is 0.75 times old length = (.75)2x = 1.5x
So the new perimeter is 1.5x + 1.5x + 1.5x + 1.5x = 6x.
The new perimeter is the same as the older perimeter! So presumably the cost is the same at $300.
Ans - A

Question: A starts a business with Rs. 3500. After 5 months, B joins with A as his partner. After a year, the profit is divided in the ratio 2 : 3. B's contribution in the capital is
A.6000
B.7000
C.8000
D.9000
Answer: D.9000
Explanation: Ratio in which profit is divided =2:3
Assume that B's contribution to the capital =b
3500×12:b×7=2:3
⇒3500×12×3=2×b×7
⇒b=(3500×12×3)/(2×7)
=500×6×3=9000
Answer is D.
