Hi all
Two simple questions in OG12, DS-section Q46 and Q47 (page 304 in the explanation section):
Q46: How can the decimal r represented by 0.t5 assumed to be positive - considering that nothing is stated in the question stem about r being positive OR negative? In statement 1, if r < 1/3, then t could be 0<=t<=9, e.g. r = -0.95 ... r = 0.25. Same trail of thought applies to statement 2 where if r < 1/10, then t could be 0<=t<=9, e.g. r = -0.95 ... r = 0.05, thus t could be 0...9?
Assuming r > 0, then correct answer would be B since t must be 0, else I'd choose E. Any thoughts?
Q47: The word "apart" could men above, diagonally "apart" or "apart" to the side. How can one extract that "apart" means "above" for which Statement 1 is naturally sufficient?
Sorry for being anal about this, but above is not at par with common sense...or what am I missing?
