WITH QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
ANSWERS
The eleventh month of the year is:
A. January
B. November
C. October
D. May - correct answer-The correct answer is (B). The eleventh month of
the year is November.
A shop owner bought some shovels for $5,500. The shovels were sold for
$7,300, with a profit of $50 per a shovel. How many shovels were involved?
A. 18
B. 36
C. 55
D. 73
E. 90
F. None of these - correct answer-The correct answer is (B). The total profit
from the sale is the selling price minus the cost of purchase, which is
$7300-$5500= $1800.If the total profit is $1800 and each shovel accounts
for $50 profit, the amount of shovels is 1800/50=36.

How many states are there in the U.S.A?
A. 20
B. 30
C. 40

There are three times elephants compared to giraffes in the safari. If there
is a total of 88 elephants and giraffes, how many elephants are there in the
safari?
A. 22
B. 31
C. 43
D. 59
E. 66
F. None of these - correct answer-The correct answer is (E). If there are 3
times as many elephants as there are giraffes, giraffes can be defined as
X, and elephants as 3X, and build the following equation:
3X + X = 88
4X = 88
X = 88/4
X = 22
As stated above, X stands for the number of giraffes. Thus, there are 22
giraffes. As mentioned in the problem, there are three times as many
elephants as there are giraffes in the safari. Thus, to find how many
elephants there are in the safari, multiply the number of giraffes by 3:

22 * 3 = 66
66 is the number of elephants in the safari.
What is the next number in the series? 5, 15, 10, 13, 15, 11, ___
A. 9
B. 13
C. 10
D. 20
E. 15
F. None of these - correct answer-The correct answer is (D). This series is
made up of two separate subseries that alternate:
1. A series of numbers (the odd terms) that increase by 5 (5, 10, 15).
2. A series of numbers (the even terms) that decrease by 2 (15, 13, 11)
The pattern is: 5, 15, 10, 13, 15, 11, ___
As you can see, the numbers that increase by 5 are bolded, and the
numbers that decrease by 2 are underlined. We are missing the seventh
number which is an odd term; therefore, it should be greater than the last
odd term (the fifth number) by 5.
The fifth number is 15. Thus, the answer is 15 + 5 = 20

A car travels at a speed of 85 miles per hour. How far will it travel in 15
minutes?
A. 9 miles
B. 11 miles
C. 13.25 miles
D. 21.25 miles
E. 22.75 miles
F. None of these - correct answer-The correct answer is (D). An hour
consists of 60 minutes. A quarter of an hour is 15 minutes as 15 * 4 = 60.
Thus, divide the distance traveled per hour by 4, which is 85/4=21.25.
A car dealership sells used cars for $7,000 and new cars for $16,000. If a
total of 17 cars were sold for $191,000, how many of the cars sold were
used?
A. 2
B. 3
C. 5
D. 8
E. 10
F. None of these - correct answer-The correct answer is (F) - None of the
above.
First of all, in order to simplify the calculations we can divide all the
numbers by a common denominator: 1000, in that way we can get rid of all
those annoying zeroes. Now we define the used cars as U (with a price of 7
each) and the new cars as N (with a price of 16 each) Now we can build
two equations, the first representing the total price and the second the total
amount of cars:
