DS Question - Not agreeing with the answer

This is a question from the DS list of questions in the Word document Sectio 14 / Question - 10 - If the average (arithmetic mean) of six numbers is 75, how many of the numbers are equal to 75 ? (1) None of the six numbers is less than 75. (2) None of the six numbers is greater than 75. The answer p...

Statement 2 would have been sufficient if it had mentioned that the sale price of $1953 was the same as asking price. As it doesnt mention it explicitly its risky to assume that they both are same. and because was not certain, B is insufficient. (I) will provide the answer, but didnt evern try to an...

Both 11 and 19 are Prime Numbers and hence their LCM = 11*19 = 209 is the closest number which can be looked at here. Now when dividing this number the remainder is 3, so the number being divided i.e. x = 209+3 = 212. So when 212 is divided by 11, the quotent y = 19 and remainder r = 3. So when y = ...

root (.0026) = root(26)/root(10000) = root(26)/100 = ~5/100 = ~.05

It cannot be .06 as that would required the value in question to be root(.0036) or something very close.

Hope this helps.

Q. 16 - if the squared value is postiive and odd, it means: 1) XY (product of x and y) is odd a) that means that X and Y are also odd (as the product of 2 odd number is odd, else its even, if one of the numbers is even) b) if both X and Y are odd their sum is even 2) XY (product of A and y) could be...

decline in - its used if there is a reduction, like "the decline in sales"


decline of - its used if there is a fall, like "the decline of Roman Empire"

So I will go with "C"

Thoughts?
