Num Properties - GMAT Prep

Hi, I searched this question through the Beat the GMAT archives and found 2 posts on it. However (before anyone deletes this), I want to note that each of the posts gave a different response/explanation for the right answer (one arrived at A, while the other arrived at B). Can someone take a look at...

Statement: 2: PQR+PRQ=150, it follows that QPR=30, which is what we started statement 1 with, hence sufficent

Can you explain the concept behind how you found Statement 2 sufficient?

Thanks

E seemed wrong because it said "...over the predominantly female.." the word THE led me to eliminate that as an option b/c it didn't make sense. ???

My timing has definitely improved and I think I'm evening out in the low 600s as I become more comfortable with the test. I still need the 700. I also think I've spent so much time ...

Counting integers

Of the three-digit integers that are greater than 700, how many have two digits that are equal to each other and the remaining digit different from the other two? A. 90 B. 82 C. 80 D. 45 E. 36 I arrived at the right answer, 80 (C). However, if I employed that method on the actual test, I'd still be ...
