Test: Problem Solving- 1 - Question 1

If the product of two integers x and y is less than 82 with y being a multiple of three. What is the highest value that x may have?

Detailed Solution for Test: Problem Solving- 1 - Question 1

In order to find the maximum value of x, we need to put the minimum value of y i.e. 3. Now, if we divide 82 by 3, we get 27.33, which means the maximum integer value that x can have must be less than 27.33. From the given options, we choose option C which is 27.

Test: Problem Solving- 1 - Question 2

Adam is 2 years older than Mike. The square of Adam’s age is 28 greater than the square of Mike’s age in years. What is the sum of Adam’s age and Mike’s age?

Detailed Solution for Test: Problem Solving- 1 - Question 2

Let suppose that Adam's age is 'A', and Mike's age is 'M'. From the statement of the questions, we deduce following two equations.

A = 2+M and also A2= M2+28 -> A2 - M2 = 28 -> (A+M)(A-M)=28 and then putting

A-M=2, we get (A+M) = 14. Therefore, the sum of Adam's age and Mike's age is 14.

Test: Problem Solving- 1 - Question 4

What could be the possible value of 'y' after the intersection of points

y= -x2 + 3 and y= x2- 5

Detailed Solution for Test: Problem Solving- 1 - Question 4

We equate the two equations, find the two points of intersection of the two functions and compute the distance using the distance between points formula.

After equating these two equations, we get x= +2 and x=-2 which gives us y=7, and y=-1. Therefore, we select option E is as our correct answer.

Test: Problem Solving- 1 - Question 5

A house is built by 20 workers in 30 days. How many workers will be needed to complete the work in 15 days?

Test: Problem Solving- 1 - Question 6

Alan has two more than twice as many chocolates as does Alice, and half as many chocolates as does Nadia. If Alice has ‘a’ number of chocolates, then in terms of ‘a’, how many chocolates do Alan, Alice and Nadia have?

Detailed Solution for Test: Problem Solving- 1 - Question 6

We know that Alice has 'a' chocolates. Alan has 2a+2 chocolates from the given statement in the question. Nadia has double the chocolates as Alan has, so she has 4a+4 chocolates.

Adding these, we get 4a+4+2a+2+a = 7a +6 . So ,Option (d) is correct.

Test: Problem Solving- 1 - Question 8

Milk needs to be thinned to a ratio of 3 parts milk to 2 parts water. The milk-man has by mistake added water so that he has 8 liters of milk which is half water and half milk. What must he add to make the proportions of the mixture correct?

Detailed Solution for Test: Problem Solving- 1 - Question 8

We note that the final ratio must be 3:2 for milk and water respectively. Now, according to given scenario in the question, we have eight liters of solution with 4 liters milk and 4 liters water, which makes it 2:2. In order to make it 3:2, we add 2 liters milk. This would make a total of 6 liters milk and 4 liters water i.e. 6:4 which can be simplified to 3:2.
