Sukhman, this is a GMAT FORUM and NOT CAT FORUM.

Also, avoid including two or more questions in the same POST; it creates confusion.


For Q1. Is the Answer [spoiler]{C} [/spoiler]
1-4 --> 0x5
5-9 --> 1x5
10-14 --> 2x5
15-19 --> 3x5
20-24 --> 4x5
25-29 --> (5+1)x5
30-34 --> (6+1)x5
35-39 --> (7+1)x5
40-44 --> (8+1)x5
45-49 --> (9+1)x5
50 ---> 10 + 2

Sum = 262
