21 days until GMAT: My Question Thread

1. It helps to produce a number line to see it more clearly.

i) Since r is always gonna be smaller than s, clearly r/s must be <1.
ii) For example: 0.9x1.9 is not <1 (condition broken)
iii) For example: 1.9-0.1=1.8 is not <1 (condition broken)

The correct answer is A.

Again, go with a number line IMO. All relatively straight-forward once you get the hang of it.

Edit: Deleted my answer to question 2, because I don't want to do it wrong and confuse you.

Make sure you search for past threads when posting questions, there is a good chance an answer exists if it is a GMAT Prep question like this one.
