Question: In the xy plane, the point (-2,-3) is the center of a circle. The point (-2,1) lies inside the circle and the point (4,-3) lies outside the circle. If the radius r of the circle is an integer, then r=
Options:
A)6
B)5
C)4
D)3
E)2
Rationale: This question might look intimidating because of its language, but once you start solving it, you will realise that the options are given to you in such a way that you reach the correct answer easily.
The radius will lie somewhere between the distance of centre from the inner point and the distance from the outer point.
Distance between centre and inner point = Distance between (-2,-3) and (-2, 1)
We can solve for the distance by using the formula for distance between two points. But that is not required here.
If one of the co-ordinates is same, then the distance between two points is simply the difference between the other coordinate.
In this case, Distance = 1 - (-3) = 4
Distance between centre and utter point = Distance between (-2, -3) and (4, -3) = 4 - (-2) = 6
The radius has to be between 4 and 6
On looking at the options, only 5 satisfies

Options:
A)20 %
B)10 %
C)25 %
D)18 %
E)None of these
Rationale: Explanation:
First discount = 25% of 600 = Rs. 150.
Thus, the reduced price = 600 – 150 = Rs. 450.
Since the person actually paid Rs. 369, the value of the second discount must be equal to Rs. 81 (450 – 369).
Let the second discount be x
Thus, we get, 81 = x of 450
( 81/450)*100 = 18%

we now put the values of k starting from 0 to find first number divisible by 3
we find 1st number at k= 1
thus smallest number will be 7(1)+1 = 8
now,
next number will be = 8+ lcm of 37
i.e 29
now we will find number of all such values less than 500 by using the formula for last term of an a.p
8+(n-1)21=400
n=23.42
or n= 23

Question: If K is the sum of reciprocals of the consecutive integers from 33 to 38, inclusive, then K is closest in value to which of the following?
Options:
A)1/12
B)1/10
C)1/8
D)1/7
E)1/4
Rationale: 1/33 , 1/34 , 1/35 , 1/36 , 1/37 , 1/38
Hypothetically , assume all 6 Numbers to be 1/33
Hence sum of it would result in = 6/33 ( almost equals 1/6 , or slightly more than 1/6 - )
If all 6 nos were to be 1/38 ... Sum of which would result in 6/38 = 3/19 .
Hence answer should lie between 1/6 and 1/7 (3/21)
D i.e 1/7

Question: In an election, candidate A got 55% of the total valid votes. If 15% of the total votes were declared invalid and the total numbers of votes is 560000, find the number of valid vote polled in favor of candidate?
Options:
A)261800
B)355800
C)356500
D)356800
E)357000
Rationale: Total number of invalid votes = 15 % of 560000
= 15/100 × 560000
= 8400000/100
= 84000
Total number of valid votes 560000 – 84000 = 476000
Percentage of votes polled in favour of candidate A = 55 %
Therefore, the number of valid votes polled in favour of candidate A = 55 % of 476000
= 55/100 × 476000
= 26180000/100
= 261800

Question: Nick's average (arithmetic mean) test score on 4 tests is 78. What must be the student's score on a 5th test for the Nick's average score on the 5 tests to be 80?
Options:
A) 80
B) 82
C) 84
D) 86
E) 88
Rationale: E. 88
Nick must score at least an 80 for sure. If he scores an 8, then he will need to score 2 pots for each of the 4 other tests tomake upthe difference. They each were at 78 (at least the average is, but this is a small point and doesn't matter to the answer). So 4 tests that were each 2 points short of the 80 average that is desired means the next test must be 8 points higher than the desired average, so 80+8 = 88.
Answer: E
