I completely agree with crejoc and Zuleron. I have no idea why DanaJ should be responding in such strong words about someone's assessment of the test. Everyone in the forum has a right of opinion and the way they would want to approach the test. calling it tricks and shady words as those, should not...

Dear Maihuna,
I am glad atleast you know Infosys exists! Unlike a previous poster... who claims absolute innocense!
Good bad or ugly... service or products, I am not contending that! It may or may not be!
And like I said.. I am no way remotely related to infosys or IT industry!
Take care!

I do not know whether I am reading the question right or not.
The Question says Product of all numbers from 1 to N is a mutliple of 990.
However if you take 11 as the answer
1*2*3*4*5*6*&*8*10*11= 39916800..... which is not a multiple of 990, rather the other way is right.
What Am i missing???

This is what i think-
Selling price= Purchase price+40% markup
Thus
x= 150+2X/5
thus x= 250
The total profit is x-150 = 250-150
100

Just remember this simple rule,
When u compare 2 things use more.
When u compare many things together,use superlative,most
In this case the airconditioner is being compared to another one on the sale, comparing 2 things, therefore Answer is C
Hope that helps
