q: A number is said to be prime saturated if the product of all the different positive prime factors of n is less than the square root of n. What is the greatest two digit prime saturated integer ?
Options:
(A) 99
(B) 98
(C) 97
(D) 96
(E) 95
a: Stream of consciousness: A prime factors are 3 and 11. 33<sqrt(99)? no
B prime factors are 2 and 7. 14<sqrt(98)? no
C prime number. its sqrt is never greater than itself
D A prime factors are 2 and 6. 6<sqrt(96)? yes
E prime factors are 5 and 19. 45<sqrt(95)? no The answer is (D).

question: The average of 13 result is 60. Average of the first 7 of them is 57 and that of the last 7 is 61. Find the 8th result?
Options:
(A) 35
(B) 37
(C) 46
(D) 48
(E) 50
answer: Stream of consciousness: Sum of all the 13 results = 13 * 60 = 780
Sum of the first 7 of them = 7 * 57 = 399
Sum of the last 7 of them = 7 * 61 = 427
So, the 8th number = 427 + 399 - 780 = 46. The answer is (C).

q: What is the units digit of the expression 14^717^4?
Options:
(A) 0
(B) 3
(C) 4
(D) 8
(E) 6
a: Stream of consciousness: I think answer on this one should be D too. Since we know that 14^7>17^4, as Will said one should always check if the number is positive. The answer is (D).

question: A car finishes a journey in nine hours at the speed of 80 km/hr. If the same distance is to be covered in six hours how much more speed does the car have to gain?
Options:
(A) 8 km/hr
(B) 40 km/hr
(C) 12 km/hr
(D) 16 km/hr
(E) None of these
answer: Stream of consciousness: Distance covered by the car = 80 9 = 720 km
\ Speed = 7206 = 120 km/hr
\ Speed gain = 120 80 = 40 km/hr The answer is (B).

q: If x is an odd integer, which of the following is an odd integer?
Options:
(A) 2x
(B) 3x-1
(C) 5x+6
(D) x+x^2
(E) 6x-6
a: Stream of consciousness: Plug in an odd integer; in this case 3
(2*3) = 6 Even
(3*3)-1 = 8 Even
(5*3)+6 = 15 + 6 = 21 Odd
3+3^2 = 3 + 9 = 12 Even
(6*3)-6 = 18 - 6 = 12 Even The answer is (C).

q: The average of eight results is 37 and that of the first seven is 40. The eighth result is?
Options:
(A) 25
(B) 30
(C) 12
(D) 37
(E) 16
a:
Stream of consciousness: 8 * 37 7 * 40 = 16 The answer is (E).
