I am an odd number. Take away one letter and I become even. What number am I?
I am an odd number. Take away one letter:
This alone shows the number is spelt in words and not in digits so can't be like 127 or 349 or etc
and I become even:
so I have to add a letter to "even" to make it a number. Seven!

What is 3³⁰ + 3³⁰ + 3³⁰ equal to?
3³⁰ + 3³⁰ + 3³⁰
Finding the common factor
= 3³⁰ (1 + 1 + 1)
= 3³⁰ (3)
= 3³⁰ x 3¹
but aˣ x aʸ = a⁽ˣ⁺ʸ⁾
= 30⁽³⁰⁺¹⁾
= 30³¹

Calculate the force of the block:
F = Ma
M = 5kg
a = acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s²)
F = 5 x 9.8
F = 49N
Since 49N is greater than 40N, the block will pull the 40N force down, hence the block will move in the direction of B

Answer to Q169
Alex pays A for rent and then it was increased by 50%. The new rent was also increased by another 50%. What is the percentage increase of the old rent A to Alex current rent?
Let us assume the initial rent is $100.
then it was increased by 50%: 50% of $100 = $50
So new rent is 100 + 50 = $150
The new rent was also increased by another 50%: 50% of $150 = $75
Current rent = 150 + 75 = $225
What is the percentage increase of the old rent A to Alex current rent: = (difference between current rent and old rent) ÷ old rent
= ((225-100) ÷ 100) x 100%
= (125 ÷ 100) x 100%
= 125%
Answer: 125%

You have a 100-page book and tore out pages 3, 4, 25, 26, 75, 76, and 97 to 100. How many sheets are left in the book?
A sheet of paper makes 2 pages so 100 pages will be 50 sheets.
tore out pages 3, 4, 25, 26, 75, 76, and 97 to 100
So pages 3, 4, 25, 26, 75, 76, 97, 98, 99 and 100 were torn, making 10 pages (i.e. 5 sheets)
How many sheets are left in the book?
50 sheets - 5 sheets = 45 sheets
Answer: 45 sheets

From the picture above, if A + B = 8 (horizontally) and A + C = 13. Using other information that can be deducted from the picture, what is the value for A, B, C and D?
A + B = 8 (eqn i)
C - D = 6 (eqn ii)
A + C = 13 (eqn iii)
B + D = 8 (eqn iv)
From eqn i:
B = 8 - A (eqn v)
From eqn iii:
A = 13 - C (eqn vi)
Put eqn vi into eqn v:
B = 8 - 13 + C
B = -5 + C
B = C - 5 (eqn vii)
From eqn ii:
C = 6 + D (eqn viii)
Put eqn viii into eqn vii:
B = 6 + D - 5
B = 6 - 5 + D
B = 1 + D (eqn ix)
From eqn iv:
D = 8 - B (eqn x)
Put eqn x into ix:
B = 1 + 8 - B
B + B = 1 + 8
2B = 9
B = 9 ÷ 2
B = 4.5
From eqn x:
D = 8 - 4.5
D = 3.5
From eqn viii:
C = 6 + 3.5
C = 9.5
From eqn vi:
A = 13 - 9.5
A = 3.5
Answer: A = 3.5, B = 4.5, C = 9.5, D = 3.5

Answer to Q174
A 100m train training at 100m/s needs to clear a track of 100m. How many seconds will it take?
A 100m train wants to clear a track of 100m. When the train travels 100m, it will be sitting perfectly on the track but remember, it needed to clear it. So the train, needs to travel another 100m to completely clear the track.
Total distance travelled = 2 x 100m = 200m
How many seconds will it take the train?
v = d ÷ t
t = d ÷ v
t = 200m ÷ 100m/s
t = 2s

There are 100 pairs of dogs in a zoo; a pair of babies are born for each dog. Unfortunately, 23 of the dogs have not survived. How many dogs are left in total?
100 pairs of dogs = 100 x 2 = 200 dogs
a pair of babies are born for each dog
That is, each dog has 2 babies. Each of them has apair of babies NOT a pair has pair of babies
= 200 x 2
= 400 babies
Unfortunately, 23 of the dogs have not survived.
= 400 - 23
= 377 babies left
Total dogs = 200 dogs + 377 babies

Answer to Q176:
Find the area of the entire square!
We can take the other side of the orange rectangle to be a.
That means the area of the orange rectangle is 2 x a = 2a.
But we were told all the areas are equal, so the entire square should be 5 x 2a = 10a.
We can also take the length of the yellow rectangle to be c. That means the total length of the entire square is 2 + c.
That means the length and width of the four rectangles (excluding the blue one) will be 2+c and a.
This means the area of those four rectangles will be (2+c) x a which will be equals to 4 x (2a), remember?
so,
(2+c) x a = 4 x (2a)
2a + ac = 8a
divide all through by a
2 + c = 8
c = 8 - 2
c = 6
We now know the total length of the left hand side is 2 + c = 2 + 6 = 8
And remember we were told the entire shape is a square, so the width of the entire square will also be 8.
Area of entire square = 8 x 8
= 64
Answer: 64 sq. unit

Answer to Q178:
I am a three-digit number xyz.
y = 4z
x = y-3
What is xyz?
y = 4z (eqn i)
For eqn i to be valid, that means z be only be 0, 1 or 2.
that is because at 3, y becomes 12 (which is not a single digit)
At 0:
z = 0
y = 4 x 0
y = 0
so, z can also not be 0 because y should be 4x larger than z
At 1:
z = 1
y = 4 x 1
y = 4
and x = y - 3
x = 4 - 3
x = 1
xyz = 141
At 2:
z = 2

y = 8
and x = y - 3
x = 8 - 3
x = 5
xyz = 583

Answer to Q179
There are 85 people in a warehouse, out of which some have been turned into zombies while some are still alive. If the ratio of zombies to living human beings is 2:3, calculate the total number of zombies.
zombies : human = 2:3
∴
zombie = 2 ratio
human = 3 ratio
and,
zombies + human = 85
ratio = 2+3 = 5
so,
1 ratio = 85 ÷ 5
1 ration = 17
zombie = 2 x 17 = 34
human = 3 x 17 = 51
