Hi all,

I am performing extremely bad on these types of questions and I cannot find a way to effectively attack these problems. My confidence level is dropping substantially. Please help.

Hey man! Don't worry; these questions are seriously easy :)

Just remember and use one of these formulae (i love this word by the way!) for these types of questions:

divident = (quotient * divisor) + remainder

(divident/divisor) = quotient + (remainder/divisor)

Also note that the second formula is just a different arrangement of the first one :)

Just put every question in one of the above formulae (:P) and you will be able to solve most of them. Post some questions that are getting in your head and we will help you with them!

I almost forgot.. Since this is a test there is no shame in "cheating". If the question looks scary just take the choices and sub them back in :)
