Question: The sum of prime numbers that are greater than 60 but less than 70 is
Options:
A)67
B)128
C)191
D)197
E)260
Rationale: A prime number is a number that has only two factors: 1 and itself. Therefore, a prime number is divisible by two numbers only.
Let's list the numbers from 61 to 69.
61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69
Immediately we can eliminate the EVEN NUMBERS because they are divisible by 2 and thus are not prime.
We are now left with: 61, 63, 65, 67, 69
We can next eliminate 65 because 65 is a multiple of 5.
We are now left with 61, 63, 67, 69.
To eliminate any remaining values, we would look at those that are multiples of 3. If you don’t know an easy way to do this, just start with a number that is an obvious multiple of 3, such as 60, and then keep adding 3.
We see that 60, 63, 66, 69 are all multiples of 3 and therefore are not prime.
Thus, we can eliminate 63 and 69 from the list because they are not prime.
Finally, we are left with 61 and 67, and we must determine whether they are divisible by 7. They are not, and therefore they must be both prime. Thus, the sum of 61 and 67 is 128.

Options:
A)207
B)209
C)211
D)212

Rationale: Sum of the deviations of the numbers in the set from the mean is always zero
201, 202, 204, 205, 206, 209, 209, 210, 212
mean is 207
so the list is -6-5-3-2-1+2+2+3+5... this shud total to zero
but this is -5 , hence we need a number that is 5 more than the mean to get a +5 and make it zero
hence the answer is 207+ 5 = 212

Question: In a certain game, you perform three tasks. You flip a coin, and success would be heads. You roll a single die, and success would be a six. You pick a card from a full playing-card deck, and success would be picking a spades card. If exactly one of these three tasks is successful, then you win the game. What is the probability of winning?
Options:
A)23/48
B)11/16
C)15/32
D)14/36
E)17/56
Rationale: The answer is A
Probability of just one enent will be happining
So, Probability heads=1/2
Probability number 6 =1/6
Probability picking a spades card =1/4
so, Probability win by getting heads= 1/2*5/6*3/4 = 15/48
Probability win by getting number 6 = 1/2*1/6*3/4 = 3/48
Probability win by picking a spades card =1/2*5/6*1/4=5/48
Probability wining= 15/48+3/48+5/48 =23/48

Question: At a meeting of 5 Chiefs of Staff, the Chief of Naval Operations does not want to sit next to the Chief of the National Guard Bureau. How many ways can the Chiefs of Staff be seated around a circular table?
Options:
A)9
B)12
C)15
D)18
E)21
Rationale: 5 people can be arranged around a table in 4! ways.
Consider the two chiefs who will not sit together as a single unit.
The number of ways to arrange 4 units around a table is 3!
We need to multiply this by 2 as the two people can be switched in each arrangement.
The total number of ways to arrange the chiefs is 4! - 2*3! = 2*3! = 12
The answer is B.

Options:
A)22.8 kg
B)25.6 kg
C)28 kg
D)26.5 kg
E)None of these
Rationale: Solution
Let the required weight be x kg. Then, Less length, Less weight
∴ 11.25 : 6 :: 42.75 : x ⇔ 11.25 × x = 6 × 42.75 ⇔ x = ⇔ x = (6x42.75)/11.25=22.8. Answer A

Question: If a and b are positive integers of Y such that a/b=2.86, which of the following must be a divisor of a?
Options:
A)10
B)B.13
C)18
D)26
E)50
Rationale: The prompt gives us a couple of facts to work with:
1) A and B are positive INTEGERS
2) A/B = 2.86
We can use these facts to figure out POSSIBLE values of A and B. The prompt asks us for what MUST be a divisor of A. Since we're dealing with a fraction, A and B could be an infinite number of different integers, so we have to make both as SMALL as possible; in doing so, we'll be able to find the divisors that ALWAYS divide in (and eliminate the divisors that only SOMETIMES divide in).
The simplest place to start is with...
A = 286
B = 100
286/100 = 2.86
These values are NOT the smallest possible values though (since they're both even, we can divide both by 2)...
A = 143
B = 50
143/50 = 2.86
There is no other way to reduce this fraction, so A must be a multiple of 143 and B must be an equivalent multiple of 50. At this point though, the value of B is irrelevant to the question. We're asked for what MUST divide into A....
Since A is a multiple of 143, we have to 'factor-down' 143. This gives us (11)(13). So BOTH of those integers MUST be factors of A. You'll find the match in the answer choices.
Final Answer:
B

Question: A man invests Rs. 7,000 at the rate of 5% per annum. How much more should he invest at the rate of 8%, so that he can earn a total of 6% per annum?
Options:
A)Rs. 1200
B)Rs. 1300
C)Rs. 3500
D)Rs. 2000
E)None of these
Rationale: Explanation :
Interest on Rs.7000 at 5% per annum = ( 7000 × 5 × 1) / 100 = Rs. 350
Let his additional investment at 8% = x
Interest on Rs.x at 8% per annum = ( x × 8 × 1 ) / 100 = 2x/25.
To earn 6% per annum for the total, interest = (7000 + x) × 6 × 1/100.
=> 350 + 2x/25 = (7000 + x) × 6 × 1/100.
=> 35000 + 8x = (7000 + x) × 6.
=> 35000 + 8x = 42000 + 6x.
=> 2x=7000.
=> x=3500.

Question: A sucrose solution contains 10 grams of sucrose per 100 cubic centimeters of solution. If 60 cubic centimeters of the solution were poured into an empty container, how many grams of sucrose would be in the container?
Options:
A) 4.00
B) 6.00
C) 5.50
D) 6.50
E) 6.75
Rationale: We are given that a sucrose solution contains 10 grams of sucrose per 100 cubic centimeters of solution. Since we are dealing with a solution, we know that the grams of sucrose is proportional to the number of cubic centimeters of solution. Thus, to determine how many grams of sucrose would be in the container when we have 60 cubic centimeters of solution, we can set up a proportion.
We can say: “10 grams of sucrose is to 100 cubic centimeters of solution as x grams of sucrose is to 60 cubic centimeters of solution.” Let’s now set up the proportion and solve for x.
10/100 = x/60
When we cross multiply we obtain:
(10)(60) = 100x
600 = 100x
6.00 = x
There are 6.00 grams of sucrose in the solution in the container.
The answer is B.
Answer: B
Question: The workforce of Company X is 60% female. The company hired 20 additional male workers, and as a result, the percent of female workers dropped to 55%.How many employees did the company have after hiring the additional male workers?
Options:
A)160
B)220
C)240
D)360
E)420
Rationale: Let's xx be total quantity of employees
0.6x=females before adding men
0.55(x+20)=females after adding men
as quantity of women doesn't change we can make an equation:
0.6x=0.55(x+20)
0.05x=11
x=220 - this is quantity of employees before adding 2020 men
So after adding it will be 240

Question: If xy ≠ 0 and x^2y^2 − 3xy = 28, which of the following could be y in terms of x?
I. 1/(2x)
II. -4/x
III. 7/x
Options:
A)I only
B)II only
C)I and II
D)I and III
E)II and III only
Rationale: (x^2)(y^2) – 3xy - 28 = 0
(xy – 7)(xy + 4) = 0
xy – 7 = 0 or xy + 4 = 0
xy = 7 or xy = -4
Since we need y in terms of x, we can isolate y in both of our equations.
y = 7/x or y = -4/x
