For the last question 5O2 =5
O stands for operation

No 2

2*4=8, 8(your ans) *2=16

That table is modular arithmetic... 5 0 2 = 10- 7= 3

Hi peeps....I am helping my son prepare for common entrance exams....kindly let me know if you can decode what's going on in this samples...thanks...

Add all the figures together to get a multiple of 3.

That is the summation of all the figures must be divisible by 3.

DabuIIIT:

The 1st seems wrong.

But in 2nd and 3rd,1+2+3=6
0+4+5=9

Is not wrong, is not the same with the other two

Godhead4:


You mean subtract 7

Divide by 7
I.e 5 o 2= 5*2= 10
10/7= 1 remainder 3.
The answer is 3

There's a typo error with the first example. Answer should be 24. Second example is... in Z add. 1+2+3=6 Same with the third. 4+0+5=9.

tymicjay77:

It is not a typo error as u claimed... Wot they are doing is dt dey are change the arithmetic sign irrespective of same symbol being used.
Wot they did is dt
1st sample
16-2= 12
12-4=8
2nd sample
6-1= 5
5-3=2
3rd sample
9-4=5
5-5=0
Hope you got d analogy

That's it

Second sample; 1+2=3+3=6
Third sample; 9-5=4-0=4
This pattern shld b follow down d trend. i.e multiplication-addition-substraction. Tanks

lanre2009:
help see if you can decode this questions.....thanks

Baba no stress yourself the last example is a certified and verified error....
Example 1 and 2 is on point while 3 is haywire...

Wot they did is dt
1st sample
16-2= 12
12-4=8
2nd sample
6-1= 5
5-3=2
3rd sample
9-4=5
5-5=0
Hope you got d analogy

16-2 is 14 not 12

egopersonified:
is this ugo c ugo or the compendium, they are supposed to come with answers

Na quantitative aptitude be dis ooo

If you went to a school that never thought u this , you didn't go to school . that's why u are stupid

Broz when 16-2 turn 12 naw LOl

The second question is multiplication modulo 7, that is to say that if you multiply two numbers and get a product more than 7, minus 7 and write the remainder.

Section E, question 21:
5 o 2 = 3
Explanation:
5 o 2 = (5 x 2) / 7 = 1 remainder 3 .The remainder is the answer.

ericmor:


That's it

16-2=14 not 12

Una bye bye oO, I can't come and kill myself, OP if you son gets 75 above is also an A1 ...

GloShare:


That 0 is definitely a typo error

most of these quantitative reasoning textbooks are filled with type errors. I once wrote to my nephe's teacher, pointing out errors in one book like that

lanre2009:



1.) 35-5-10=X
Answer X=20

2.) 7-1-X=2
Ans X=4

3.) 21-X-6=12
Ans X=3

4.) X-14-28=56
Ans X=98


Its simply addition or subtraction depending on which side your chose to start.. Hope this helps.

For the first option in the example, i feel it's a typo error

lanre2009:

Section E No. 21 answer is 3. The table is in mod 7.
5 x 2 = 10.
10 - 7 = 3.

There is an error in the third example

tymicjay77:

Wot they did is dt
1st sample
16-2= 12
12-4=8
2nd sample
6-1= 5
5-3=2
3rd sample
9-4=5
5-5=0
Hope you got d analogy

But 16 - 2 =14 not 12. Check the 1st sample

back in the day!

Almost like one spent so much time learning nothing

lanre2009:

No error anywhere

The summation of the four numbers give you multiple of 3

A. 16+8+4+2 = 30

B. 1+2+3+6= 12

C. 4+0+5+9= 18

lanre2009:
It's UGO C UGO.....the new edition doesn't come with answers

It comes, tell the bookshop you want to buy UGO C UGO answer booklet

In primary school, I was addicted to Quantitative Aptitude Tests as it made one analytic.

It's all solved. Bye.

By the way, if you need 2018 questions and answers do lemme know.

[quote author=lanre2009 post=76068829][/quote]So

1. Not clear

2. 2 (A)

3. 3 (E)

4. 70 (D)

Me too. I had a study group and we aced our common entrance exams. None of us got below 500.

I am looking forward to solving quantitative problems with my kids but, as i have gotten to realise, the Nigerian education system is very much inadequate

The second sample is a modulus of 7.
