Reasoning: 7 is the only prime number or odd number in the series.
Ans: (A)
Question: Find the wrong number below mentioned series
7,30,80,250,550
Options:
(A) 7
(B) 30
(C) 80
(D) 250
(E) 550
Rationale: {Total} = {First correctly} + {Second correctly} - {Both correctly} + {Neither correctly}
100 = 85 + 75 - {Both correctly} + 15
{Both correctly} = 75.
The answer: (D)
Question: If 85 percent of the test takers taking an old paper and pencil GMAT exam answered the first question on a given math section correctly, and 75 percent of the test takers answered the second question correctly, and 15 percent of the test takers answered neither question correctly, what percent answered both correctly?
Options:
(A) 60 %
(B) 65 %
(C) 70%
(D) 75%
(E) 80%
Reasoning: The total possibilities are W@W@W@ (or) @W@W@W, where 2 blue and 1 red flowers occupy the space marked as @. Hence, the Total number of permutations is 2 x (3! / 2!) = 6.
Ans: (A)
Question: One red flower, three white flowers and two blue flowers are arranged in a line such that
I. No two adjacent flowers are of the same colour.
II. The flowers at the two ends of the line are of different colours.
In how many different ways can the flowers be arranged?
Options:
(A) 6
(B) 4
(C) 10
(D) 12
(E) 14
Rationale: Distance traveled by Eddy = 450 km
Time taken by Eddy = 3 hours
Average speed of Eddy = 450/3 = 150 km/hour
Distance traveled by Freddy = 300 km
Time taken by Freddy = 4 hours
Average speed of Freddy = 300/4 = 75 km/hour
Ratio of average speed of Eddy to Freddy = 150/75 = 2
The answer: (B)
Question: Eddy and Freddy start simultaneously from city A and they travel to City B and City C respectively. Eddy takes 3 hours and Freddy takes 4 hours to complete the journey. If the distance between City A and City B is 450 kms and City A and City C is 300 kms. What is the ratio of their average speed of travel? (Eddy: Freddy)
Options:
(A) 8/3
(B) 2
(C) 8/5
(D) 5/8
(E) 5/3
Reasoning: 10^2 - 20 = 80
20^2 - 30 = 370
30^2 - 40 = 860
40^2 - 50 = 1550
50^2 - 60 = 2440
60^2 - 70 = 3530.
Ans: (D)
Question: 80 370 ? 1550 2440 3530
Options:
(A) 900
(B) 840
(C) 750
(D) 860
(E) 960
Reasoning: A's 1 hour work = 1/4;
(B + C)'s 1 hour work = 1/3;
(A + C)'s 1 hour work = 1/2
(A + B + C)'s 1 hour work = (1/4 + 1/3) = 7/12
B's 1 hour work = (7/12 + 1/2) = 1/12
B alone will take 12 hours to do the work.
Ans: (C)
Question: A can do a piece of work in 4 hours; B and C together can do it in 3 hours, which A and C together can do it in 2 hours. How long will B alone take to do it?
Options:
(A) 15 hours
(B) 14 hours
(C) 12 hours
(D) 74 hours
(E) 79 hours
