Question: Q. How many 4-digit even numbers less than 3,000,000 can be formed using the following digits: 1, 2, 2, 3?
Options:
A)180
B)240
C)210
D)270
E)300
Rationale: the number is less than 3000000 so we will have the digit on the left most side to be either 1 or 2
i.e your number can be 1 _ _ _ _ _ _ or 2 _ _ _ _ _ _
case 1 > 1 _ _ _ _ _ _ here the units digit can be either 2 or 6
when the units digit is 2 i.e 1 _ _ _ _ _ 2
number of ways this can be done would be 5! / 2! (as 5 is repeated twice) = 60
when the units digit is 6 i.e. 1 _ _ _ _ _ 6, number of ways would be 5!/(2! * 2!) {both 2 and 5 repeat twice} = 30
case 2 > 2 _ _ _ _ _ _ (here units digit may be 2 or 6)
number of ways this can be done would be 5! / (2!) for 2 =60
and 5! / 2! for 6 ... = 60
adding all of these ... gives the answer 300 ...
the explanation looks difficult but this technique helps if you are familiar with the concept of permutations when the numbers/alphabets repeat

Question: What is the distance from (–7, 2) to (5, –3)?
Options:
A)10
B)11
C)12
D)13
E)14
Rationale: solutions
Suppose we made a right triangle, as in the example above. The difference in the x-coordinates is (–7) – 5 = –12, so the horizontal leg would have a length of 12 (length has to be positive). The difference in the y-coordinates is 2 – (–3) = 5, so this is the length of the vertical leg. We recognize that we have a common Pythagorean triplet, so we don’t even need to perform a calculation: we know the length of the hypotenuse, and hence, the distance between the two points, is 13.

Question: A customer went to a shop and paid a total of $40, out of which $1.28 was for sales tax on taxable purchases. If the tax rate was 8%, then what was the cost of the tax free items?
Options:
A)$19.54
B)$2076
C)$21.36
D)$22.72
E)$23.58
Rationale: The total cost was $40.
The tax was $1.28
Let the original price of the taxable items = x
Given that tax rate = 8%
0.08x = 1.28
x = $16
The cost of the tax free items was $40 - $16 - $1.28 = $22.72

Question: If |x^2 − 6| = x, which of the following could be the value of x?
Options:
A)–3
B)–2
C)0
D)1
E)2
Rationale: The LHS is not negative, so the RHS is also not negative. Thus x >= 0.
First, let's assume that x^2-6 is negative.
-(x^2 - 6) = x
x^2 + x - 6 = 0
(x+3)(x-2) = 0
x = 2 or x = -3 (However, x can not be negative.)
Then x=2 is a possible value for x.
The answer is E.

Question: The ratio of the area of a square mirror to its frame is 16 to 33. If the frame has a uniform width (g) around the mirror, which of the following could be the value, in inches, of g ?
I. 2
II. 3 1/2
III. 5
Options:
A)I only
B)III only
C)I and II only
D)I and III only
E)I, II, and III
Rationale: Area of picture = 16x Area of frame = 33x
Area of picture / (Area of picture + area of frame) = 16x / 49x = 4x/7x.
This results in g value to be a multiple of 1.5 = multiple of 3/2 and since g is not constrained to be only integer all the three choices are possible
For i) the multiple of g is 4/3
For ii) the multiple of g is 7/3
For iii) the multiple of g is 10/3
The key is g can be any real positive number... very tricky problem.. took me > 15 minutes.

Options:
A)650
B)678
C)727
D)710

Solve for x and find all three numbers
x + 4 x + 16 = 727 + 4 x + 8
x = 719
x + 2 = 721
x + 4 = 723
Check: the smallest is added to four times the largest
719 + 4 * 723 = 3611
four times the middle
4 * 721 = 2884
3611 is more than 2884 by
3611 - 2884 = 727

Question: The sum of five consecutive even numbers of set x is 440. Find the sum of a different set of five consecutive integers whose second least number is 121 less than double the least number of set x?
Options:
A)248
B)240
C)228
D)236
E)246
Rationale: Let the five consecutive even numbers be 2(x - 2), 2(x - 1), 2x, 2(x + 1) and 2(x + 2)
Their sum = 10x = 440
x = 44 => 2(x - 2) = 84
Second least number of the other set = 2(84) - 121 = 47
This set has its least number as 46.
Sum of the numbers of this set = 46 + 47 + 48 + 49 + 50
= 48 - 2 + 48 - 1 + 48 + 48 + 1 + 48 + 2 => 5(48) = 240

Question: A jar is filled with red, white, and blue tokens that are equivalent except for their color. The chance of randomly selecting a red token, replacing it, then randomly selecting a white token is the same as the chance of randomly selecting a blue token. If the number of tokens of every color is a multiple of 6, what is the smallest possible total number of tokens in the jar?
Options:
A) 9
B) 12
C) 15
D) 18
E) 21
Rationale: (Red / Total Coins)*(White / Total Coins) = (Blue / Total Coins)
i.e. Red*White = Blue*Total Coins
Let, Red = 3a
White = 3b
Blue = 3c
Total Coins = 3(a+b+c)
i.e. 3a * 3b = 3c*3(a+b+c)
i.e. a*b = c*(a+b+c)
For smallest values of a, b and c
2*3 = 1*(1+2+3)
i.e. Minimum Total Coins = 3*(1+2+3) = 21

Question: Find the value of (X) in the given equation ?
35% of 1500 + X = 45% of 4200 – 320
Options:
A)ANSWER: 1049
B)ANSWER: 1048
C)ANSWER: 1041
D)ANSWER: 1045
E)ANSWER: 10412
Rationale: Explanation:
35% of 1500 + X = 45% of 4200 – 320
(35/100 * 1500) + X = (45/100 * 4200) – 320
525 + X = 1890 – 320
X = 1890 – 320 – 525
X = 1890 – 845
X = 1045

Question: Two dice are tossed once. What is the probability of getting an even number on the first die or a total sum of 6 on the two dice?
Options:
A)5/9
B)5/12
C)7/12
D)11/18
E)19/36
Rationale: There are 36 possible outcomes for two dice.
The number of outcomes with an even number on the first die is 3*6=18.
The number of outcomes with a sum of 6 is 5.
We need to subtract the outcomes that have both an even number on the first die and a sum of 6 because we have counted those outcomes twice. This number of outcomes is 2.
The number of outcomes with either an even number on the first die or a sum of 6 is 18+5-2=21.
The probability is 21/36=7/12.
The answer is C.
