Q1

Which share has shown the largest absolute range in price over the last year?

(A) Huver Co. (B) Drebs Ltd (C) Fevs Plc (D) Fauvers

The information that we need is shown in the table Share price.

The range is the difference between the maximum and the minimum prices. Calculate the range for each share; Huver Co. = 1360 – 860 = 500 Drebs Ltd = 22 – 11 = 11

Fevs Plc = 1955 – 1242 = 713 Fauvers = 724 – 464 = 260 Steapars = 2630 – 2216 = 414

So the correct Answer is (C) Fevs Plc

答案

(A) 164,726 Euros (B) 172,577 Euros (C) 164,045 Euros (D) None of these

The information that we need is shown in the table Share price.

Step 1

Calculate yesterday’s share price for each share Fevs plc = 1586/0.91 = 1742.86 x 50 = 87,143 Steapars = 2537/1.01 = 2511.88 x 100 = 251,188 Difference = 251,188 - 87,143 = 164,045

So the correct Answer is (C) 164,045 Euros

(A) 25.20 Euros (B) 12.68 Euros (C) 12.90 Euros (D) 12.86 Euros

The information that we need is shown in the table Share price. Step 1

Drebs Ltd’s share price is shown as 18 Euros. This is a 40% increase and so represents 140%.

So the correct Answer is (D) 12.86 Euros

So the correct Answer is (D) 2,418 Euros

(A) Cannot say (B) 1,500 (C) 125 (D) 150

The information that we need is shown in the graph Car fuel economy.

Step 1

The Xtam’s fuel economy is shown as 34 miles to the gallon (motorway driving). So, 4,250 miles/34 = 125 gallons per month.

Step 2

Annual petrol consumption = 125 x 12 = 1500 So the correct Answer is (B) 1,500

答案

Q7

A car dealership has £600,000 to spend and wants to buy equal numbers of the Taber and Ursa cars. What is the largest number of each type of car that can be ordered?

(A) 27 (B) 48 (C) 21 (D) 22

The information that we need is shown in the table Car specifics.

Step 1 - The cost of the Taber and Ursa cars are £12,500 and £15,250 respectively.

Step 2

Since the numbers of each car purchased must be equal, calculate the combined cost as follows;

£12,500 + £15,250 = £27,750

Step 3

£600,000 / £27,750 = 21.6

So the correct Answer is (C) 21

Q8

(A) 2:4:5 (B) 1:4:6 (C) 1:3:5 (D) 2:3:5

The information that we need is shown in the table Car specifics. Taber: Velvo: Xtam costs = 12,500: 37,500: 62,500

So the ratios are 12,500/12,500 : 37,500/12,500: 62,500/12,500 = 1:3:5 So the correct Answer is (C) 1:3:5

答案

Q9

A Tink car is taken on a test drive for 90 minutes around the city. If the average speed is 34 miles per hour how much petrol is consumed?

(A) 1.5 gallons (B) 2.5 gallons (C) 2 gallons (D) 0.5 gallons

The information that we need is shown in the graph Car fuel economy.

Step 1 - The Tink’s fuel economy (city driving) = 34 miles to the gallon.

Step 2

Speed = distance / time.

34 miles per hour = X distance / 90 mins = X distance / 1.5 hours X distance = 34 x 1.5 = 51 miles

Step 3

Petrol consumed = 51 / 34 = 1.5 gallons So the correct Answer is (A) 1.5 gallons
