Don't expect members search and answer a problem for you while the search link provided is "mission impossible" for most of them. Please post the real question in real wordings, rather.

In my opinion, this cannot be solved in under 2 minutes - there's no trick method to solve it, and there is a complex system of equations that needs to be setup. So I can safely say that this won't appear on the actual GMAT.

(Unless you are an 800 scorer, in which case you don't need to even bother looking at this question

)

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
