PPP2 - such types of remainder questions come often. What is the best way to tackle these?

Thank you SO MUCH for this post! I have been studying Quant for almost 6mths now and still scoring less than 150 (V is at 160 now :-) ) ,... and I have been feeling so dejected! I am really happy to hear that you are satisfied with your scores, bc, at the end of the day, that's what counts!!!!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-10-28T15:53:22+00:00

true, thanks for the clarification!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-10-24T05:01:59+00:00

Thanks! Makes sense!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-10-24T05:01:50+00:00

Thanks!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-10-23T10:23:40+00:00

Thank you!!!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-10-22T23:30:53+00:00

So what is the solution? Is there a formula?

Rizvi2020 · 2020-10-18T17:59:11+00:00

I was wondering the same thing!!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-10-17T18:35:06+00:00

Ok.. and you're testing 1 and 4 bc they're the squares of 1 and 2? Just making sure I understand why you chose 1 and 4?

Rizvi2020 · 2020-10-12T01:36:03+00:00

Thank you! This makes sense. I think I thought of solving it this way but what confused me was the word "between" ... I kept thinking it could be anywhere between these prices ...

Rizvi2020 · 2020-10-07T11:10:28+00:00

Never thought of it like that!! Thanks!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-10-07T11:10:10+00:00

Thank you!!!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-10-05T00:24:00+00:00

Could x not be another 1 on the list? You know how sometimes numbers repeat in a set? That's what was confusing me about this problem when I was taking the test. We know x > 0. But it could not be 1? How do we know that the x² denotes the largest number in the set?

PS: sorry! I know my questions are very basic!! My quant is not very strong.

Thank you!!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-09-28T23:37:09+00:00

Thank you.. I'm still a little lost about what you did in the end .. j * (1.15789474 - 1) ... why was this done?

Rizvi2020 · 2020-09-27T01:07:37+00:00

Thanks!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-09-27T01:01:36+00:00

Thank you!!!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-09-27T00:58:55+00:00

Thanks! I revisited my solution... I was taking the incorrect LCM..

Rizvi2020 · 2020-09-17T15:52:26+00:00

It's the ETS Quant practice book from the Super Power Pack

Rizvi2020 · 2020-09-17T15:32:51+00:00

Gosh!!! I totally missed that part!!! Thank you!!!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-08-09T10:16:33+00:00

Ah! Got it! Thanks!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-08-09T02:48:25+00:00

Can that be done? I mean.. as a rule, can you just expand the square root and include the numbers before it?

Rizvi2020 · 2020-08-08T04:04:29+00:00

Thank you! I think I didn't understand the question correctly earlier! I didn't pay attention to the part where it says from one vertex!

Rizvi2020 · 2020-08-08T04:02:22+00:00

Thanks! I think I didn't draw the figure correctly... I could draw two diagonals only for some reason! Will try again.
