Rationale: "since we are concerned with integers between 1 and 20 , write down the primes till 40 . 2 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 11 , 13 , 17 , 19 , 23 , 29 , 31 , 37 ( you should be very comfortable with the first few primes . . . ) 2 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 11,12 , 13 , 17 , 19 , 23 , 29 , 31 , 37 - three pairs ( 11,13 ) , ( 7,17 ) , ( 5 , 19 ) 2 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 11 , 13 , 15,17 , 19 , 23 , 29 , 31 , 37 - three pairs ( 13 , 17 ) , ( 11 , 19 ) , ( 7 , 23 ) 2 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 11 , 13,17 , 19 , 23 , 29 , 31 , 37 - three pairs ( 11 , 23 ) , ( 5 , 29 ) , ( 3 , 31 ) 2 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 11 , 13 , 17 , 18,19 , 23 , 29 , 31 , 37 - four pairs ( 17 , 19 ) , ( 13 , 23 ) , ( 7 , 29 ) , ( 5 , 31 ) 2 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 11 , 13 , 17 , 19 , 20,23 , 29 , 31 , 37 - definitely can not be more than 4 since there are only 4 primes more than 20 . so must be less than 4 pairs . ignore . answer ( d ) ."
Answer: d
Python program:
a = 3 * 2
b = a * 3
Problem: if three numbers in the ratio 3 : 2 : 5 be such that the sum of their squares is 1862 , the middle number will be
Options: a ) 10
b ) 14
c ) 18
d ) 22
e ) 24
Rationale: explanation : let the numbers be 3 x , 2 x and 5 x . then , 9 x + 4 x + 25 x = 1862 ⇒ 38 x = 1862 ⇒ x = 49 ⇒ x = 7 . middle number = 2 x = 14 option b
Answer: b
Python program:
a = 3 * 3
b = 2 * 2
c = a + b 
d = 5 * 5
e = c + d 
f = 1862 / e
g = math.sqrt(f)
h = g * 2
Problem: factory x ' s bulbs work for over 5000 hours in 79 % of cases , whereas factory y ' s bulbs work for over 5000 hours in 85 % of cases . it is known that factory x supplies 80 % of the total bulbs available . what is the chance that a purchased bulb will work for longer than 5000 hours ?
Options: a ) 80.2 % , b ) 88 % , c ) 87.4 % , d ) 85 % , e ) 83.9 %
Rationale: for x , 80 % of 79 % will work . for y , 20 % of 85 % will work . * 20 % is the rest of the bulb supply in the market . so , the probability that a purchased bulb will work is : 0.80 ( 0.79 ) = . 632 0.20 ( 0.85 ) = 0.17 the combined probability then is 63.2 + 17 = 80.2 % ans a
Answer: a
Python program:
a = 79 + 85 
b = a / 2
Problem: a train 150 m long passes a man , running at 5 km / hr in the same direction in which the train is going , in 10 seconds . the speed of the train is ?
Options: a ) 13 km / hr , b ) 59 km / hr , c ) 17 km / hr , d ) 18 km / hr , e ) 12 km / hr
Rationale: "speed of the train relative to man = ( 150 / 10 ) m / sec = ( 15 ) m / sec . [ 15 ) * ( 18 / 5 ) ] km / hr = 54 km / hr . let the speed of the train be x km / hr . then , relative speed = ( x - 5 ) km / hr . x - 5 = 54 = = > x = 59 km / hr . answer : b"
Answer: b
Python program:
a = 5 * const_0_2778
b = a * 5
c = 150 - b
d = c / 5
e = d / const_0_2778
Problem: each factor of 210 is inscribed on its own plastic ball , and all of the balls are placed in a jar . if a ball is randomly selected from the jar , what is the probability that the ball is inscribed with a multiple of 40 ?
Options: a ) 1 / 16 , b ) 5 / 42 , c ) 1 / 8 , d ) 3 / 16 , e ) 1 / 4
Rationale: "210 = 2 * 3 * 5 * 7 , so the # of factors 210 has is ( 1 + 1 ) ( 1 + 1 ) ( 1 + 1 ) ( 1 + 1 ) = 16 ( see below ) ; 42 = 2 * 3 * 7 , so out of 16 factors only two are multiples of 42 : 42 and 210 , itself ; so , the probability is 2 / 16 = 1 / 16 . answer : a"
Answer: a
Python program:
a = math.comb(40, 1)
b = a / 40
c = 3 ** 2
d = b / c
Problem: if the population of a certain country increases at the rate of 10 person every 60 seconds , by how many persons does the population increase in 1 hour ?
Options: a ) 100 , b ) 200 , c ) 600 , d ) 800 , e ) 1000
Rationale: "answer = 10 * 60 ( 1 hour = 60 minutes ) = 600 answer = c"

Python program:
a = const_60 / 10
b = a * 60
Problem: the units digit of ( 10 ) ^ ( 87 ) + ( 5 ) ^ ( 46 ) is :
Options: a ) 2 , b ) 4 , c ) 6 , d ) 8 , e ) 0
Rationale: "any power of anything ending in 5 always has a units digit of 5 . so the first term has a units digit of 5 . done . the second term anything power to 10 unit digit will be zero then 5 + 0 = 5 , e"
Answer: e
Python program:
a = reminder * (
b = reminder + (
Problem: double of quarter of 4 percent written as a decimal is :
Options: a ) 0.003 , b ) 0.0005 , c ) 0.25 , d ) 0.02 , e ) none of these
Rationale: explanation : solution : ( 2 ) * ( 1 / 4 ) * 4 % = 2 * ( 1 / 4 * 1 / 100 ) = 0.02 . answer : d
Answer: d
Python program:
a = 4 / 100
b = a / 4

Problem: a 1200 m long train crosses a tree in 120 sec , how much time will i take to pass a platform 1100 m long ?
Options: a ) 200 sec , b ) 230 sec , c ) 167 sec , d ) 197 sec , e ) 179 sec
Rationale: "l = s * t s = 1200 / 120 s = 10 m / sec . total length ( d ) = 2300 m t = d / s t = 2300 / 10 t = 230 sec answer : b"
Answer: b
Python program:
a = 1200 + 1100 
b = 1200 / 120

Rationale: "12 * 8 : 16 * 9 = 18 * 6 8 : 12 : 9 12 / 29 * 841 = 348 answer : c"
Answer: c
Python program:
a = 12 * 8
b = 16 * 9
c = a + b 
d = 18 * 6
e = c + d
