I would have done the following:

Y/5 * 6 = 48
Y/5 = 48/6
Y/5 = 8
Y = 8 * 5
Y = 40

That is kinda screwy but here's how I debugged their work: Y/5 * 6 = 48 ...multiply that 6 (really 6/1) into Y/5: 6Y/5 = 48 ...multiply both sides by 5/6 to cancel out the left side: 5/6 * 6Y/5 = 48 * 5/6 ...turns into: Y = 48 * 5/6 ...then solve from there. Not at all how I would have approached it...

Hate to revive an old topic but I'm having the same experience as kaushikkumar1987 on topic: http://www.beatthegmat.com/career-changer-would-like-some-input-suggestions-t153816.html Forum says there is 8 replies but I can only see 4 of them. Could very well be spam, but I can't help but be curious! :)

Career Changer - Would like some input/suggestions

Greetings, First, I apologize if this is in the wrong forum-section. I couldn't decide between here or the 'MBA App Process' subsection. I would be happy to move it if necessary. Also, I'll attempt to write this without being a book. But I can't make any promises. I'm reaching out to the forum for s...

Thank you for all for taking the time to reply.

I found the US News pages not too long ago and forgot to report back; it's a page to check out and help focus target schools.

Thanks again!

Are certain...

After taking the OG's quant practice test, I quickly realized that I need to go over all of the basics. I picked up Manhattan GMAT's Math Foundations book and, so far, it's been a great refresher of all that high school math I've not seen in many a year. I recommend it. Amazon has the book for fairl...
