Question: A warehouse is labeling computer inventory with 4-digit codes. Each code is to consist of four digits between the numbers 0 and 8. The manager is debating whether to allow any 4-digit codes to have leading zero's before a non-zero number is used. If not allowed, then numbers like0025cannot be used.
The manager wants to measure the magnitude of the number of 4-digit code possibilities that are lost if he disallows the use of leading zero's. How many such codes would be lost?
(A) 981
(B) 2000
(C) 1011
(D) 1101
(E) 1110
Rationale: The number of codes possible if leading zero is allowed = 10*10*10*10=10^4
The number of codes possible if leading zero is NOT allowed = 8*10*10*10=9*10^3
The difference = 10^4 - 8*10^3 = 10^3(10-8) = 2*10^3.

Question: In a certain province in Italy there are 15 cities. If a single road segment connects only two cities, how many road segments are required in order to connect the cities so that each city is connected to all other cities with a single road segment?
(A) 30
(B) 105
(C) 330
(D) 14!
(E) 15!
Rationale: Method-1:
Italy Total Cities = 15 and each city should be connected with every other city
So Total Roads required to connect 1st City with other 14 cities = 14
Now 1st City is connected with all other cities so,
So Total Roads required to connect 2nd City with 13 cities (Other than 1st) = 13
Now 1st and 2nd Cities are connected with all other cities so,
So Total Roads required to connect 3rd City with 12 cities (Other than 1st, and 2nd) = 12
......and so on...
Total Roads required = 14 + 13 + 12 + 11 + 10 + 9 + 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 105=B

Question: Sreenivas sells a table to Shiva at 10% profit and Shiva sells it to Mahesh at 10% loss. At what price did Sreenivas purchase the table if Mahesh paid Rs. 3168?
(A) 2277
(B) 3200
(C) 2200
(D) 2766
(E) 2998
Rationale: Let the cost price of table for Sreenivas be Rs. x and given that, cost price of table for Mahesh = Rs. 3168.
=> (90%) of (110%) of x = Rs. 3168.
=> (90/100)(110/100)x = 3168
=> x = (3168 * 100)/(9 * 11)
=> x = Rs. 3200
Answer: B

(B) Rs. 11,000
(C) Rs. 8,000
(D) Rs. 10,000
(E) Rs. 9,000
Rationale: Solution: Let's Q's capital is x.
P : Q = (4,000 * 12): (x : 8) = 2 : 3 .
So Q's share = (4000 * 12/8x) = 2/3
=> x = (4000 * 12 * 3)/(2 * 8) =Rs. 9,000
Answer: Option E
Answer: (E) Rs. 9,000
Question: The average (arithmetic mean) of all scores on a certain algebra test was 90. If the average of the 8 male students’ grades was 85, and the average of the female students’ grades was 92, how many female students took the test?
(A) 8
(B) 9
(C) 10
(D) 11
(E) 20
Rationale: Total Marks of male = M
Total Marks of female = F
Number of males = 8
Number of females = f
Given: (M+F)/(8+f) = 90 -------------1
Also given, M/8 = 85 Thus M = 680 ---------2
Also, F/f = 92 thus F = 92 F - --------3
Put 2 and 3 in 1: we get
(680+92f)/(8+f) = 90
solving this we get f = 20

Question: Let T be the set of integers { 3, 11, 19, 27, ..., 451, 459, 467 } and S be a subset of T such that the sum of no two elements of S is 470. The maximum possible number of elements in S is
(A) 32
(B) 28
(C) 29
(D) 30
(E) None of these
Rationale: Explanation :
At first, let's find the number fo integers in the given series.
=> Tn = a + (n - 1) d.
=> 467 = 3 + (n - 1) 8.
=> 464/8 = n - 1.
=> 58 + 1 = n. i.e n = 59.
If we closely observe the given set 3 + 467 = 11 + 459 = .... = 470.
The total number of elements in the given set = 59.
This means that we have 59/2 i.e 29 pairs of values that add to 470, and one lone number (235) that has no other number to pair up with.
So, We have 29 prohibited number pairs: (3 and 467), (11 and 459), (19 and 451), . . .
We can take 1 number from each of these pairs, so we can have 29 numbers in set S.
PLUS we can have the lone number 235.
So, set S can have a maximum of 29+1 i.e 30 numbers.

(A) 7,000
(B) 10,500
(C) 11,750
(D) 12,000
(E) 13,000
Rationale: The work Done by Inlet A and B together in 1 min = 1/42
The work Done by Inlet A (First Inlet) in 1 min = 1/120
The work Done by Inlet B (Second Inlet) in 1 min = (1/42)- (1/120) =1/65
DIfference of Work done by B and A = B - A = 50 Cubic meter
i.e. (1/65)- (1/120) = 50 Cubic meter

Question: How long will it take for a sum of money to grow from Rs.1250 to Rs.10,000, if it is invested at 12.5% p.a simple interest?
(A) 8 years
(B) 64 years
(C) 72 years
(D) 56 years
(E) None
Rationale: Solution:
Simple interest is given by the formula SI = (pnr/100), where p is the principal, n is the number of years for which it is invested, r is the rate of interest per annum
In this case, Rs. 1250 has become Rs.10,000.
Therefore, the interest earned = 10,000 – 1250 = 8750.
8750 = [(1250*n*12.5)/100]
=> n = 700 / 12.5 = 56 years.
