But i still couldnt accept it....so, would like to seek your opinion.

Q. It will take sometime for many South Koreans to ___________ the
conflicting images of North Korea, let alone to ________ what to make
of their northern cousins.

1) reconcile, decide
2) understand, clarify
3) make out, decide
4) reconcile, understand

Please tell me the reason for your choice. Thank you

All the Best for CAT 2006

Hello,
  If somebody has XAT sample papers then please send me. i have been
looking for it for quite some time .

Q1> Ans is (d) and not (b).......all of the given is not a perfect
square.

q4> i think ans is (d) -- none of these
Here u have to consider that x,y have a common domain (2,3), and so
if x=y in this domain, then x-y=0, also x-y can be nagative.....so
lower limit of x-y cannot be said so easily.......and neighter the
ratio.

Hi All,
I came across this question , plz solve this and give me its
explanation,

" Find the value of x, where x = 2/3+ 3/3^2+ 5/3^3+ 8/3^4+ 12/3^5+....
upto infinity

x=2/3+3/3^2+5/3^3+8/3^4+12/3^5....

x/3=    2/3^3+3/3^3+5/3^4+8/3^5....

subtractin dese 2 we get

2/3x=2/3+1/3^2+2/3^3+3/3^4+4/3^5....

2/3x=2/3+1/3^2(y)

now here  y=1+2/3+3/3^2+4/3^3...

             y/3=   1/3+2/3^2+3/3^3...

subtactin

            2/3y=1+1/3+1/3^2+1/3^3....

this is a infinte GP ....2/3y=1/(1-1/3)

             y=9/4

now x=3/2(2/3+1/3^2y)

x=11/8..ans

Hi all can anybody solve these questions.

Q.1. Kishan takes up an assignment for a month at a crafts village where he is assigned to make a piece of pottery everyday. For every non-defective piece , he is promised to be paid Rs.80 while for a defective, he has to payRs.18 . if at the month, Kishan earns a net amount of Rs. 1518, then how many defective pieces did he make?

(1) 8

(2) 9

(3) 10

(4) 11

 

 

 

Here,if 'x' be the number of non-defective pieces and 'y' the number of defective ones,we have:

 

80x - 18y = 1518

 

Also,as is evident, x + y = 30

(a 'piece a day'......)

 

Therefore,  the number of non defective items = x =21 , and the number of defective ones = 30-21 = 9.

    ques 1. a tiled floor of a room has dimensions m*m sq.m. the dimensions of the tileused are n*n sq.m. all tiles used are green tiles except diagonal tiles which are red. after some years some green tikes are replaced by red tiles to form an alternate red and green tile pattern. how many green tiles are removed?(m not equal to n and the total number of tiles are odd)



ans will be
[(m*m+1)/ 2- 2m+1]
means if m=5 then no. of green tiles which change to red will be (5*5+1)/2= 26\2=13 - 2*5 +1=13-10+1=4.u can check it. n in case if m=3 then ans will be 3*3+1=10\2=5-2*3+1=0 u can check it
red  green  red
green red green
red green red its already in that order.
         solution is
earlier no. of red tiles=2m-1 coz its a square n if red tiles r on both the diagonals ,n green tiles will be m*m-(2m-1)
after we arrange red n green tiles let no. of red tiles be x green tiles will be m*m-x
after this arrangement no. of red tiles will be one no of grren tiles +1coz  we arranged gr n red tiles alteranately if no of tiles is odd then green tiles will be 1 more than red tile.
so x=m*m-x+1 so by addind one to no of green tiles we can equate it with the no of red tiles.
from here we get x=(m*m+1)/2
              now this is no of red tiles we have on the floor now.earlier they were 2m - 1 so no of green tiles replaced will be difference b/w  no of red tiles now n red tiles earlier
so x - (2m -1)=      (m*m+1)/2 -2m+1

  I think IMT is better known for its HR than marketing. And acc. to
salary packages IMT ghaziabad is better than nagpur.

ques: A man, who sells cigarette and matchboxes, prices the cigarette at 88p,but found that there were no takers at all. Therefore ,he reduced the price of cigarette and managed to sell all the cigarette,realising Rs.84.39 in all.wht is the no. of cigarette?
a)83 b)97 c)89 d)85 e)87








ans will be 97. if price is 88p then no of ciagreetes that can be sold=84.39/88p= 95.8 or approximately 96 but if price is reduced then more than 96 ciagrettes will be sold that is 97

hey can anyone tell me what is the cut off for IMT
Ghaziabad............Just tell me the round off figure........

well for the fifth..the total no. of diamonds is 60

let total no. of diamonds be 'x'

(x/2)+2 + x/4+1 + x/8+ 1/2 + x/16+1/4 = x

solving we get x = 60
