Re: Test Code 52, Section 6, Question 10

Average = sum of terms / # of terms

= (n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) + (n + 4) + (n+ 8)) / 5
= (5n + 15)/5
= n + 3

We want to know by how much the mean is greater than the median, so:

mean - median = (n + 3) - (n + 2) = 1... choose (B).

Re: For the positive integers a, b (OG16)

2^k ||72 means 2^k is a divisor of 72, but 2^(k+1) is not a divisor of 72

72 = 2^3*3^2

The maximum powers of 2 in 72 = 3
Hence 2^3 is a divisor of 72 and 2^4 is not a divisor of 72
k = 3

Re: Ratios & Revenue (OG Quant Review #115)

nitially $3m royalty from $20m sales, So $ 1m sales = $3/20
Next, $9m royalty from $108m sales, So $ 1m sales = $9/108

% Decrease = Change/Original * 100
% Decrease = (3/20 - 9/108)/ (3/20) * 100 = approx 45 %
