Question: A professional janitor can clean a certain high school in (4+4) hours, working at a constant rate. A student sentenced to detention can clean that same high school in 20 hours, also working at a constant rate. If the student is paid $7 total per hour and the janitor is paid $21 per hour, how much more would it cost the school to pay the janitor to do the job himself than it would to pay the student and the janitor to do the job together?
Options:
A)-$56
B)-$6
C)$0
D)$6
E)$8
Rationale: A professional janitor can clean a certain high school in (4+4) or 8 hours
So (applying rule #1), the janitor can clean 1/8 of the school in ONE HOUR
A student sentenced to detention can clean that same high school in 20 hours
So (applying rule #1), the student can clean 1/20 of the school in ONE HOUR
So, COMBINED, the student and janitor can clean (1/8 + 1/20) of the school in ONE HOUR
1/8 + 1/20 = 5/40 + 2/40 = 7/40
So, in ONE HOUR they can clean 7/40 of the school.
Applying rule #2, it will takethem40/7 hoursto clean the ENTIRE school.
The janitor earns $21/hour and the student earns $7/hour, so their combined rate is$28/hour.
Theircombined wages= (pay rate)(time) = ($28/hour)(40/7 hours) =$160
Working ALONE, the janitor takes 8 hours and earns $21/hour
So, working alone, the janitor's earnings = (pay rate)(time) = ($21/hour)(8 hours) =$168
$168-$160= $8, so the answer is E

Question: How many even number in the range between 10 to 160 inclusive are not divisible by 3
Options:
A)15
B)30
C)51
D)63
E)76
Rationale: We have to find the number of terms that are divisible by 2 but not by 6( as the question asks for the even numbers only which are not divisible by 3)
For 2,
10,12,14...160
using AP formula, we can say 160 = 10 + (n-1) *2
or n=76.
For 6,
12,18,...156
using AP formula, we can say 156 = 12 + (n-1) *6
or n=25.
Hence, only divisible by 2 but not 3 =76-25 = 51. hence, Answer C

Question: The distance between stations A and B is 148 km. An express train left station A towards station B with the speed of 80 km/hr. At the same time, a freight train left station B towards station A with the speed of 36 km/hr. They met at station C at 12 pm, and by that time the express train stopped at at intermediate station for 10 min and the freight train stopped for 5 min. Find:
a) The distance between stations C and B.
b) The time when the freight train left station B.
Options:
A)12.17
B)10.35
C)29.28
D)12.32
E)12.22
Rationale: a) Let x be the distance between stations B and C. Then the distance from station C to station A is (148−x)(148−x) km. By the time of the meeting at station C, the express train travelled for 148−x80+1060148−x80+1060 hours and the freight train travelled for x36+560x36+560 hours. The trains left at the same time, so: 148−x80+16=x36+112148−x80+16=x36+112. The common denominator for 6, 12, 36, 80 is 720. Then
9(148−x)+120=20x+609(148−x)+120=20x+60
1332−9x+120=20x+601332−9x+120=20x+60
29x=139229x=1392
x=48x=48. Therefore the distance between stations B and C is 48 km.
b) By the time of the meeting at station C the freight train rode for 4836+5604836+560 hours, i.e. 11 hour and 2525 min.
Therefore it left station B at 12−(1+2560)=10+356012−(1+2560)=10+3560 hours, i.e. at 10:35 am.

Question: Each of three investments has a 20% of becoming worthless within a year of purchase, independently of what happens to the other two investments. If Simone invests an equal sum J in each of these three investments on January 1, the approximate chance that by the end of the year, she loses no more than 1/3 of her original investment is
Options:
A)90%
B)80%
C)70%
D)60%
E)40%
Rationale: The problem asks for the approximate chance that no more than 1/3 of the original investment is lost. We can apply the “1 – x” technique: what’s the chance that more than 1/3 of the original investment is lost? There are two outcomes we have to separately measure:
(a) All 3 investments become worthless.
(b) 2 of the 3 investments become worthless, while 1 doesn’t.
Outcome (a): The probability is (0.2)(0.2)(0.2) = 0.008, or a little less than 1%.
Outcome (b): Call the investments X, Y, and Z. The probability that X retains value, while Y and Z become worthless, is (0.8)(0.2)(0.2) = 0.032. Now, we have to do the same thing for the specific scenarios in which Y retains value (while X and Z don’t) and in which Z retains value (while X and Y don’t). Each of those scenarios results in the same math: 0.032. Thus, we can simply multiply 0.032 by 3 to get 0.096, or a little less than 10%.
The sum of these two probabilities is 0.008 + 0.096 = 0.104, or a little more than 10%. Finally, subtracting from 100% and rounding, we find that the probability we were looking for is approximately 90%.
The correct answer is A.

All else being equal, it’s less risky to hold a third of your money in three uncorrelated (independent) but otherwise equivalent investments than to put all your eggs in one of the baskets.
