Question: 108.	Triangle A’s base is 12% greater than the base of triangle B, and A’s height is 12% less than the height of triangle B. The area of triangle A is what percent less or more than the area of triangle B?
Options:
A) 9 % less
B) 0.7 % less
C) Equal to each other
D) 1 % more
E) 9 % more
Rationale: Wish the question specified that we are talking about corresponding height.
Base of A = 13/12 * Base of B
Height of A = 11/12 * Height of B
Area of A = (1/2) * Base of A * Height of A = 13/12 * 11/12 * Area of B = 143/144 * Area of B
Area of A is 0.7% less than the area of B.

Question: a, b, c, and d are positive consecutive integers and a < b < c < d.
If the product of the highest and lowest numbers is three more than the square of the second number, what is the value of the third number?
Options:
A)2
B)3
C)4
D)5
E)6
Rationale: ad = bb + 3
We know many squares: 2 squared is 4, 3 squared is 9, 4 squared is 16, 5 squared is 25, 6 squared is 36.
We need to find a sequence where the square is a little smaller than the ad product.
In the sequence 1, 2, 3, 4, the square of b is only 2x2 = 4. The product of the first and last numbers is 1x4 = 4, which is the same. So this can't be our sequence.
In the sequence 3, 4, 5, 6, the square of b is 4x4 = 16. The product of the first and last numbers is 3x6 = 18, which is close, but a little too low.
In the sequence 5, 6, 7, 8, the square of b is 6x6 = 36. The product of the first and last numbers is 5x8 = 40, which is close, but a little too high.
The correct sequence is 4, 5, 6, 7. The square of b is 5x5 = 25, and the product of the first and last numbers is 4x7 = 28, exactly three more than the square.
The answer to the problem is the value of the third number in the sequence, which is 6 (option E).

Question: Aravind had $ 2100 left after spending 30 % of the money he took for shopping. How much money did he
take along with him?
Options:
A)$ 3500
B)$ 3600
C)$ 3800
D)$ 3000
E)$ 4000
Rationale: Let the money he took for shopping be m.
Money he spent = 30 % of m
= 30/100 × m
= 3/10 m
Money left with him = m – 3/10 m = (10m – 3m)/10 = 7m/10
But money left with him = $ 2100
Therefore 7m/10 = $ 2100
m = $ 2100× 10/7
m = $ 21000/7
m = $ 3000
Therefore, the money he took for shopping is $ 3000.

Rationale: total man work in 90 days is = 90*75*8==>54000 man work
remaining work =1-2/7=5/7
now, 2/7 work have 54000 man work
5/7 work will have (54000*7/2)*5/7 ==> 135000 man work
days left =60 and 10 hrs per day
so, no. of workers = 135000/(60*10)==>225
this is total workers.
so, workers needed ==>225-75= 150 workers

Question: Steve Purchased a house for $15000 and he like to resell it with 20% profit. And what price he want to sell that?
Options:
A)16000
B)17500
C)18000
D)19500
E)21000
Rationale: Explanation:
C.P= 15000
Profit% = 20% = (Profit*C.P) / 100
Profit= (Profit% * C.P) / 100 = (20*15000) / 100 = 3000
S.P = C.P + Profit = 15000+3000 = 18000 . Answer: C
Answer: C
Question: The product of two numbers is 4107. If the H.C.F. of these numbers is 37, then the greater number is:
Options:
A)101
B)107
C)111
D)185
E)192
Rationale: Let the numbers be 37a and 37b.
Then, 37a x 37b = 4107
ab = 3.
Now, co-primes with product 3 are (1, 3).
So, the required numbers are (37 x 1, 37 x 3) i.e., (37, 111).
Greater number = 111.

Answer: C
Question: A certain company items price list has an average of 6 and a standard deviation of d (d is positive). Which of the following pairs of data when added to the list, must result in a list of 102 data with standard deviation less than d?
Options:
A)(-6;0)
B)(0;0)
C)(0;6)
D)(0;12)
E)(6;6)
Rationale: Standard deviation shows how much variation there is from the mean. A low standard deviation indicates that the data points tend to be very close to the mean, whereas high standard deviation indicates that the data are spread out over a large range of values.
So when we add numbers, which are far from the mean we are stretching the set making SD bigger and when we add numbers which are close to the mean we are shrinking the set making SD smaller.
According to the above adding two numbers which are closest to the mean will shrink the set most, thus decreasing SD by the greatest amount.
Closest to the mean are 6 and 6 (actually these numbers equal to the mean) thus adding them will definitely shrink the set, thus decreasing SD.
Answer: E.
Answer: E
Question: An article was sold after a discount of 20% and therewas a gain of 20%. If the profit madeon it was Rs.6 less thanthe discount offered on it, find its SP?
Options:
A)Rs. 60
B)Rs. 69
C)Rs. 72
D)Rs. 89
E)Rs. 92
Rationale: Let CP = Rs. 100x
SP = Rs. 120x
MP = 120x/80 * 100 = Rs. 150x
D = Rs. 150x - Rs. 120x = Rs. 30x
D - P = 30x - 20x = Rs. 6, 10x = Rs. 6
120x = 120/10 * 6 = Rs. 72

Question: If Bill can buy 3 pairs of jeans and 2 shirts for $69 or 2 pairs of jeans and 3 shirts for $81, how much does one shirt cost?
Options:
A)$10
B)$12
C)$13.20
D)$21
E)$16.80
Rationale: 3J + 2S = 69
2J + 3S = 81
----------------
5J + 5S = 150 ----(divide by 5)---> J + S = 30
3J + 2S = J + 2(J + S) = J + 60 = 69 ---> J = 9
3*9 + 2S = 69
27 + 2S = 69
2S = 42
S = 21
