Mary, who is sixteen years old, is four times as old as her brother. How old will Mary be when she is twice as old as her brother?
- A.

Correct Answer
B. 24Explanation
Mary is currently 16 years old and four times as old as her brother, who is 16/4 = 4 years old. To find out when Mary will be twice as old as her brother, we need to find the age gap between them. Currently, the age gap is 16 - 4 = 12 years. Since Mary is currently 16, she will be twice as old as her brother when she is 16 + 12 = 28 years old. Therefore, the correct answer is 28.Rate this question:

Sequential reasoning is often tested in IQ exams. 3, 7, 13, 21, 31. What number comes next in the sequence
- A.
37
- B.
45
- C.
43
- D.
39
- E.
49
Correct Answer
B. 45Explanation
The sequence follows a pattern where each number is obtained by adding consecutive odd numbers. Starting with 3, we add 4 (1+3) to get 7. Then we add 6 (1+3+5) to get 13. Continuing this pattern, we add 8 (1+3+5+7) to get 21, and then add 10 (1+3+5+7+9) to get 31. Therefore, the next number in the sequence would be obtained by adding 12 (1+3+5+7+9+11) to 31, resulting in 43.Rate this question:

Find the difference in 7 4/6 – 3 5/6?
- A.
A) 3 5/6
- B.
B) 2/3
- C.
C) 4 5/6
- D.
D) 4 2/3
Correct Answer
A. A) 3 5/6Explanation
To find the difference between 7 4/6 and 3 5/6, we need to subtract the second fraction from the first. First, we need to convert both mixed numbers to improper fractions. 7 4/6 is equivalent to (6*7 + 4)/6 = 46/6. 3 5/6 is equivalent to (6*3 + 5)/6 = 23/6. Now, we can subtract the fractions: (46/6) - (23/6) = 23/6. Converting this improper fraction back to a mixed number, we get 3 5/6. Therefore, the correct answer is a) 3 5/6.Rate this question:

- A.
4
- B.
8
- C.

Correct Answer
B. 8Explanation
To find the value of y, we need to isolate y on one side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 7 from both sides of the equation. This will give us 5y = 40. To solve for y, we divide both sides of the equation by 5. Therefore, y = 8.Rate this question:

Nim went into a supermarket to buy some fruit. There were three packs on special offer: 1) Ten grapes and five strawberries: 70p (save 10p) 2) Ten strawberries and ten apricots: £2 (save 40p) 3) Thirty grapes: 100p (save 20p) What would be the full price of one grape, one strawberry and one apricot at normal price (no special offers)?
- A.
28p
- B.
14p
- C.
34p
- D.
20p
Correct Answer
A. 28pExplanation
The full price of one grape, one strawberry, and one apricot at normal price can be determined by adding up the savings from each pack and subtracting it from the total price of each pack. From pack 1, the savings are 10p. From pack 2, the savings are 40p. From pack 3, the savings are 20p. Therefore, the total savings are 10p + 40p + 20p = 70p. Since the total price of the packs is 100p, the full price of one grape, one strawberry, and one apricot at normal price is 100p - 70p = 30p. However, the question asks for the full price of one grape, one strawberry, and one apricot, so we divide 30p by 3 to get the price of each fruit individually, which is 10p. Therefore, the correct answer is 10p for each fruit, making the total 10p + 10p + 10p = 30p.Rate this question:
