Test: Problem Solving- 2 - SSC CGL MCQ

The driver has 50 - 12 1/2 or 37 1/2 laps to go out of the . Therefore, (37 1/2)/50 is the fractional part of the race remaining. This is equivalent to 3/4, which is answer C.
a. (1/4) This is the fraction of the race that the driver has completed.
b. (1/5) This comes from mistakenly dividing by , the latter number coming from adding both lap amounts. The race is only .
c. Correct
d. (4/5) This comes from taking the fraction in response B and subtracting it from 1.
e. (75/2) This comes from , but that’s how many laps are left - the driver is only in one race, not !

The only elements in both sets are multiples of 2 x 9 or 18. The multiples of 18 less than 150 are 18, 36, 54, 72, 90, 108, 126 and 144. These are the 8 elements that are in the intersection of both sets. Thus, B is the correct response.
a. (0) There are elements that are in both sets.
b. (8) Correct
c. (9) There are 8 elements in both sets, not 9.
d. (18) This is the number that the elements are multiples of.
e. (74) This is the number of multiples of 2 less than 150

Since you have x dollars to spend, you must divide x by the sale price of a CD, which is (100%-20%)d or 80%d . 80%d can be written as a fraction in lowest terms as 4/5d . Therefore, you are dividing x/(4/5d) = 5x/4d. This is answer E.
a. This is the percent of the original price times x.
b. This is the reciprocal of the sale fraction times x.
c. This is the fraction of the original price, which represents the sale price.
d. This comes from incorrectly handling the fraction in the denominator.
e. Correct

Both fractions each = -1, so adding -1 twice gives an answer of -2. This is choice E.
a. Both fractions are not equal to (x-2y) , so we do not have like terms.
b. The other parts of the fractions are not eliminated, so this is not possible.
c. Each fraction equals -1, so this result is not possible.
d. Each fraction equals -1, so adding twice gives .
e. Correct

We can model this situation by the equation 1/3x + 60 = 1/2x .

Solving for x, we get x=360 , which is answer A.

 

• We know that  (x²-y²) = (x+y)(x-y) = 48
• 2/3(x-y)(x+y) = 2/3 (x²-y²) = 2/3 x 48 = 32

We can model this by getting Eddie’s age now and then figuring out how old he was 11 years ago.
Right now, he is x+7 .
Eleven years ago, Eddie was x + 7 -11 = x - 4 years old.
This is answer B.
 

A January and February. The profit in January was $20,000. The profit in February was-$20,000 . This represents a change in profit of -$40,000, which is the greatest that the graph shows.
