We are looking at numbers between 10000 and 99999 both inclusive. There are 90000 numbers. Now for 10000 : sum of digits is odd; 10001 :sum of digits is even; 10002 : sum of digits is odd ; so on and so forth. So every alternate number is such that the sum of digit is odd. (Exception for the above statement : When it is 10009 the E sum is even and for 10010 again the sum is even; But if you look at 10019 :sum is odd; 10020 : sum is odd and this pattern continues so basically the number of odd sum of digits and even sum of digits are equal) This means exactly half of the numbers will have odd sum of their digits. i.e 45000 Answer :D

Answer: CIt may be tempting to come up with a lot of variables, one each for each month's revenue for each company. However, focus on the differences. In the first month, the difference was +40 in favor of A. (Note that we can drop the thousands since every number in the question is in terms of thousands.) In the second, the difference was +6 in favor of A. The average was +2 in favor of A. With these numbers, use the average formula to find the third month (T): (40 + 6 + T)/3 = 2 46 + T = 6 T = -40 Since positive numbers indicate a difference in favor of A, negative numbers are in favor of B. -40 represents a $40,000 advantage in favor of Store B. Choice (B) is correct.

Let's say the two cars have speeds V1 and V2. The fact that they are moving in opposite direction means that their relative speed is (V1 + V2). In other words, any gap between them will be changing in size at a rate of (V1 + V2). It doesn't matter whether they are moving toward each other or away from each other. If they are approaching each other, the gap between them is decreasing at a rate of (V1 + V2). If they are moving away from each other, the gap between them is increasing at a rate of (V1 + V2). Either way, the number for the rate of change remains the same. Here, the two cars approach a distance 40 mi, then move away from each other another distance of 40 miles. That's a total distance of 80 miles in 1.5 hr, which gives a rate of: R = (80 mi)/(1.5) = 53.33 mph That's the rate of change of the gap, so it must equal the sum of the speeds of the two cars. One of the speeds is x, and let's call the other y. We want y. x + y = 53.33 y = 53.33 - x Answer =(B)

Just to add some more to Bunuel's explanation, if a number is a multiple of 3, it will be in a form: n = 3*k, where k is an integer And if a number is a multiple of 6, it will be in a form : m = 6*l, where l is an integer so m = 2 * 3 * l = (2*l) * 3 = 3 * p, where p is an integer. In other words, the prime factorization of m must have 3 as a factor, if it's a multiple of 6, but the expression can't have that (as explained by Bunuel), so it can't be a multiple of 6 either ANSWER:C

C.P. = 400W S.P. = 1.8W*150 + 1.2W*100 + 0.6W*150 = 480W Since, S.P. > C.P., there is net profit. Profit = S.P. - C.P. = 480W - 400W = 80W Profit % = (Profit/C.P.)*100 = (80W/400W)*100 = 20% So, the correct answer is D.
A book store bought copies of a new book by a popular author, in anticipation of robust sales. The store bought 400 copies from their supplier, each copy at wholesale price W. The store sold the first 150 copies in the first week at 80% more than W, and then over the next month, sold a 100 more at 20% more than W. Finally, to clear shelf space, the store sold the remaining copies to a bargain retailer at 40% less than W. What was the bookstore’s net percent profit or loss on the entire lot of 400 books?
A. 30% loss B. 10% loss C. 10% profit D. 20% profit E. 60% profit
D. 20% profit

Prime Factoring: you need a 2 and a 5 to make a 10 (a "zero"), and there are TONS of 2's so let's skip these and focus on the (rarer) 5s: 80! = 1*2*3*4*5*6...*78*79*80 Since there are 80 consecutive numbers, there are 16 multiples of 5 in there, but if we're prime factoring, we need to remember that SOME multiples of 5 actually contain more than just one 5. Which? 25 comes to mind -- it's got two of them! So all the multiples of 25 actually contain two 5's (ie: 50 and 75) So, to recap, we have 16 of them, plus 3 more (the additional 5's in 25, 50, and 75), so that makes 19, and since we have more than enough 2's, we know our number will have exactly 19 zeros at the end. ANSWER:D
If 73! has 16 zeroes at the end, how many zeroes will 80! have at the end?
A. 16 B. 17 C. 18 D. 19 E. 20

he answer will be a number which doesn't completely divide 100! No of 5's in 100! = 24 No of 7's in 100! = 16 No of 11's in 100! = 9 No of 13's in 100! = 7 No of 17's in 100! = 5 There are 5 seventeens in 100! , however we are dividing by 17^6 , so this can not divide 100! Hence our answer will be E
