参考答案

1.Correct Answer: .318

Explanation:

The difference between 0.326 and 0.312 is divided into 7 equal units. The size of each unit is therore (0.326 - 0.312)/7 = 0.002 P comes three units after 0.312 and so is at 0.312 + 3(0.002) = 0.318 (Do not grid in the lead zero)

2.Correct Answer: 6

Explanation:

If the average of ten numbers is 15, their total = 150 If the average after one hase been removed is 16, the total of 9 numbers is 16 x 9 =144 The number removed = 150 - 144 = 6

3.Correct Answer: 30

Explanation:

Speed = distance /time; 54 = distance / 5 Distance = 54 x 5km At 60 km/hr 60 = 54 x 5/time in hours Time in hours = 54 x 5/60 = 4.5 hours The difference in the time = 0.5 hours = 30 minutes

4.Correct Answer: 7

Explanation:

Note that (x +1) on the lt side occurs inexactly the same place as 8 So, x + 1 = 8; x = 7

5.Correct Answer: 43

Explanation:

If Ravi is 32^nd in line, it means there are 31 people to one side of him. Counting from the other end he is 12^th in line so there are 11 people on the other side. Number of students = 31 + 11 + 1 = 43 (Do not forget to count Ravi in!)

6.Correct Answer: 5/3

Explanation:

Let participation in team sports be t Let participation in individual sports be I At the beginning of the year they are in the ratio of t/I At the end of the year t increases to 1.25 t, and I decreases to 0.75I The new ratio is 1.25t/0.75I = 1.666t/I Grid in most accurately as 1.67

7.Correct Answer: 144

Explanation:

The strange sign indicates the operation to be carried out on the numbers( i.e ad them then square the sum) Carry out this operation fist on the numbers in the brackets; (1 + 2)² = 9 Now carry out the operation on the result and 3; (9 + 3)² + 144

8.Correct Answer: 144

Explanation:

If the side of one small cube is 6, the surface area = 6 x 6² Since there are three of these cubes their total surface area = 3 x 6 x 6² The rectangular box will have sides will lose surface area equivalent to the four faces that get glued together to form a line of cubes. The ‘lost’ surface = 4 x 6², and so the rectangle is that much less in surface area = 144

9.Correct Answer: 1024

Explanation:

Let the initial population be n After 20 minutes = 2n; after 40 minutes = 4n; after 60 minute = 8n (You can simply continue counting like this...it will not take you long and will be accurate) Or, realize that there will be 10 doubling periods, and after the first the population will be 2 times greater, after the second it will be 2² and after the third it will be 2³ etc. After the 10^th it will be 2¹⁰ greater = 1024

10.Correct Answer: 4

Explanation:

The distance between A and B is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 4 and 3. (We can see that the third side must be 3 because 3-4-5 triangles are one of the ‘special triangles’). Therore the coordinates of B can be (5, 4) or (5, -2). But we cannot enter negative numbers in the grid, and so we must enter 4.
