wonderlic test prep questions with accurate answers A set of 4 eggs cost $2.75. 12 eggs will cost ___?___ correct answer First, the ratio here between 4 eggs and 12 eggs is 3, so we need to multiply $2.75 by 3.
3 X $2.75 = ?
Let's split 2.75 into 2 and 0.75.
3 X $2.75 = 3 ( 2 + 0.75 )
- x 2 is 6, but what about 0.75×3?
When you need to multiply decimals, think of it as cents in terms of money.¢75 x 3 = ¢225 ¢225 is $2.25 ¢75 x 3 = ¢225 = $2.25
3 X $2.75 = 3 ( 2 + 0.75 ) = $6 + $2.25 = $8.25
Using this method, the answer is $6 + $2.25 = $8.25 A total of 33 minutes was spent washing 6 cars. At this rate, it would take __?__ minutes to wash 42 cars. correct answer Note that this question can be considered as a time trap.These two numbers don't have a round ratio.
42/33 = 1.2727
In this case, you need to find the rate of producing one unit.
33 / 6 = ?
So we need to divide 33 by 6 When you encounter calculations that do not seem to include round numbers, always look for approximate numbers, such as 30 in this case.
30 / 6 = 5
3 / 6 = 0.5 1 / 2
30 / 6 = 5, and the remainder of 3 is half of 6, so the rate per unit is 5.5.Now that we know that it takes 5.5 minutes to wash one car, or in other words, to produce one unit, we need to multiply it by 42.42 x 5.5 =?The way to calculate it without using a scrap paper is to look at the decimal numbers in a different form:
42 (5 + 0.5) = ?
We can distribute the factor of 42 and multiply it by 5 and 0.5 individually.
42 (5 + 0.5) = 42 X 5 + 42 X 0.5
42 ( 5 + 0.5) = 42 X 5 + 42 X 0.5 = 210 + 21 = 231
With this, the answer is 231.Learn how to solve this question type quickly in Modules 6/7: Numerical Reasoning After folding these squares into a closed cube, which shaded corner would touch corner "X"? correct answer Face with C is the anchor face.When the other faces rise around it, corners X and E touch each other.Dave is 15 years old and his uncle Rob is three times as old. When Dave will be 32 years old, his uncle Rob will be __?__ correct answer In this instance, we must calculate how much older uncle Rob is than Dave. If Dave is 15 years old and his uncle Rob is 3 times as old, then uncle Rob is 45 years old: 15 x 3 = 45
45 - 15 = 30
Rob is 30 years older than Dave.Using this information, we have a fixed value of age difference between the two; after all, age difference never changes. As such, we can add 30 on to Rob's age in order to find the solution:
32 + 30 = 62
Emma and Anna went to the market to buy 25 fruits. Emma got a few apples that cost $2 each, and Anna bought some oranges which cost $3 each. If their combined total is $60, how many oranges did Anna get? correct answer We will shortly explain the way to solve it and you will understand why it's a time trap that you better skip.First, you need to process the data in the question and put together 2 equations with 2 variables.The two variables are the number of fruits that Emma and Anna bought.
