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.

,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.

,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:
a. 7U+16N=191
b. N+U= 17
So according to the second equation N = 17-U, and
we can now substitute N in the first equation:
7U+16(17-U)=191 ; 7U+272-16U=191 ; 9U=81 ;
U=9. 9 used cars were sold.
Solving Tip: You could try solving this question by
elimination. For starters, since 191 is an odd
number and 16 is an even number, then the
number of used cars must be odd (even+odd=odd) -
which means we can eliminate answers A, D & E.
