Question: Among 300 students, 56% study sociology, 44% study mathematics and 40% study biology. If 30% of students study both mathematics and sociology, what is the largest possible number of students who study biology but do not study either mathematics or sociology?
Options:
A)30
B)90
C)120
D)172
E)188
Rationale: I would just like to add a bit of explanation after the step where you calculate that the number of students studying both M and S = 90
Using your analysis:
We see that the total number of students who study either Maths or Sociology = 132 + 168 - 90 = 210
So, in the image we know that the number of students in the zone with the black boundary = 210
Let's assume the number of students who studyonlybiology to beb(this is the number that we have to maximize)
And, let's assume the number of students who study none of the three subjects, that is the number of students in the white space =w
Since the total number of students = 300, we can write:
210 +b+w= 300
Or,b+w= 300 - 210 = 90
That is,b= 90 -w
So, the maximum value ofbwill happen forw= 0
This is how we get, the maximum value ofb= 90

Question: A train running at a speed of 36 kmph crosses an electric pole in 12 seconds. In how much time will it cross a 350 m long platform?
Options:
A)25
B)15
C)18
D)47
E)26
Rationale: Let the length of the train be x m.
When a train crosses an electric pole, the distance covered is its own length.
So, x = 12 * 36 * 5 /18 m = 120 m.
Time taken to cross the platform = (120 +350)/ 36 * 5/18
= 47 min.

Question: Mike drives his new Corvette from San Francisco to Las Vegas, a journey of 640 miles. He drives the first half of the trip at an average rate of 80 miles per hour, but has to slow down for the second half of his journey. If the second half of the trip takes him 200 percent longer than the first half, what is his average rate Q in miles per hour for the entire trip?
Options:
A)Q=26.7
B)Q=30.0
C)Q=40.0
D)Q=53.3
E)Q=60.0
Rationale: VERITAS PREPOFFICIAL SOLUTION
Correct Answer: C
Using the formula: Time = Distance/Rate, we find that Mike takes 4 hours to cover the first 320 miles of his trip. Since the 2nd 320 miles take 200% longer than the first, it takes Mike 8 hours longer, or 12 hours. (Note: 200% longer than the first half is not 200% of the first half.) The overall time is 4 hours + 12 hours or 16 hours. Since the definition of Average Rate = Total Distance Traveled/Total Time of Travel, Mike's average rate = 640/16 or 40 miles per hour.
Answer choice C is correct.

the radius, in inches, of the one that has maximum
volume?
Options:
A) 3
B) 4
C) 5
D) 6

Question: The average of runs of a cricket player of 10 innings was 32. How many runs must he make in his next innings so as to increase his average of runs by 4 ?
Options:
A)76
B)29
C)26
D)19
E)11
Rationale: Explanation:
Average = total runs / no.of innings = 32
So, total = Average x no.of innings = 32 x 10 = 320.
Now increase in avg = 4runs. So, new avg = 32+4 = 36runs
Total runs = new avg x new no. of innings = 36 x 11 = 396
Runs made in the 11th inning = 396 - 320 = 76

Question: A circular rim 28 inches in diameter rotates the same number of inches per second as a circular rim 42 inches in diameter. If the smaller rim makes x revolutions per second, how many revolutions per minute does the larger rim makes in terms of x ?
Options:
A)40x
B)75x
C)48x
D)24x

Rationale: The larger rim must circulate for the same number of inches the smaller rim does.
C = (pi)d
C(small): (pi)*28
C(large): (pi)*42
Lets say the time horizon is 60 seconds, so during that time the smaller rim covers a distance of (pi)*28*60 = (pi)*(1680) inches
(pi)*(1680) = (pi)*(42)(x)
pi*(40) = pi*(x)
40=x

n(S) = Total number of ways of drawing 2 balls out of 7 = 7C2
Let E = Event of drawing 2 balls , none of them is blue.
n(E) = Number of ways of drawing 2 balls , none of them is blue
= Number of ways of drawing 2 balls from the total 5 (=7-2) balls = 5C2
(âˆµ There are two blue balls in the total 7 balls. Total number of non-blue balls = 7 - 2 = 5)
P(E) = n(E)/n(S)=5C2/7C2=(5X4 /2X1) /(7X6 /2X1)=5X4/7X6 =10/21
ANSWER IS B
Answer: B
Question: If 1 > 1 - ab > 0, which of the following must be true?
I. a/b < 1
II. a/b > 0
III. ab < 1
Options:
A)I only
B)II only
C)III only
D)II and III only
E)I and III only
Rationale: MANHATTAN GMATOFFICIAL SOLUTION:
You can manipulate the original compound inequality as follows, making sure to perform each manipulation on every term:
1 > 1 - ab > 0
0 > -a b > -1 Subtract 1 from all three terms.
0 < ab < 1 Multiply all three terms by -1 and flip the inequality signs.
Therefore you know that 0 < ab < 1. This tells you that ab is positive, so a/b must be positive (a and b have the same sign). Therefore, I must be true. However, you do not know whether a/b < 1, so II is not necessarily true. But you do know that ab must be less than 1, so III must be true.
Therefore, the correct answer is (D).

Question: John purchased a grinder and a mobile for Rs. 15000 &Rs. 8000 respectively. He sold the grinder at a loss of 4% and the mobile phone at a profit of 15%. Overall how much he make a profit.
Options:
A)s. 90
B)s. 620
C)s. 600
D)s. 650
E)s. 690
Rationale: Let the SP of the refrigerator and the mobile phone be Rs. r and Rs. m respectively.
r = 15000(1 - 4/100) = 15000 - 600
m = 8000(1 + 15/100) = 8000 + 120
Total SP - Total CP = r + m - (15000 + 8000) = -600 + 1200 = Rs. 600
As this is positive, an overall profit of Rs. 600 was made.
