  1. agreed w/ gmat009...I picked C, as well
  2. I would say E. Median would be 50th percentile. Don't know how you get that from statements a, b, or combined
  3. I would say D. Pts to be distributed would be (for 9 places): 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0 Maximize one team with 5 & 1 and the other with 4 &2...left with 3. There may be a hole in that logic, but that's what I came up with in 30 sec!
  4. i think it's D for question 1
  5. i would say E. What's the OA?
  6. I would say A. E doesn't mention anything about if it would reduce the costs (the argument of the statement). What's the OA?

    Ps

    logic makes sense...but, what's wrong with this formula (it's giving me the incorrect answer): Time for all 3 to complete one house: (1/Time) = (1/6) + (1/8) + (1/12) (1/Time) = 9/24 Time = 24/9 = 8/3 days to complete 1 house if all 3 work together For 3 houses then, wouldn't it be (8/3) days * 3 Houses = 8 days total (meaning they would finish it together in 8 days)?? What am I doing wrong there?
  8. Agreed...needs to be 1/(2r+3). Plug in numbers and it has to work out as such.
  9. Makumajon - the logic is correct according to OA reasoning, but your answer is wrong. x/y R 6...so y>6 a/b R 9...so b>9 means y+b = 6+9 = 15 so y+b > 15...answer E
  10. I actually got 62.8% (none of the above!). I just started with a hypothetical 100 total voters: - Total 70 for Sobel - Total 30 for Lange - 60 males total - 40 females total 35% of 40 = 14 female voters for Lange which means 26 females for Sobel. If 26 females voted for Sobel, then 44 males voted for Sobel. 44/70 = 22/35 = 62.8%. Don't know if there's a flaw in my logic there...
  11. x, y, a & b are positive integers. When x is divided by y, the remainder is 6. When a is divided by b, the remainder is 9. Which of the following is not a possible value for y+b? a. 24 b. 21 c. 20 d. 17 e. 15
