12 has prev. experience.
9 doesn't have experience.
12*9*8=864.
I think this is the answer, not 100% sure.

One of the equation is m-j=2m-2k. We can rewrite it as m+j=2k.
question is asking about m+j+k.
statement 1: j=30k. We can't solve the equation with j=30k, therefore insufficient.
statement 2: k=40k, we can solve m+j, which is 80k.
avg.=(40k+80k)/3=40k, therefore sufficient.

I don't think E is correct, because the second part of the sentence is an incomplete sentence. blah blah blah; especially Nikola Tesla, who blah blah (modifier). If I take out the modifier, the second part becomes "especially Nikola Tesla", which doesn't have a verb. As for A, such as = ex...

I don't see how statement 1 is sufficient.
If z is 9 and x is 8, then we have...
9>(8+10)/2?
9>9?
no....
Did I miss something?

In C isn't "they" ambiguous?
"They" can refer to diesel engines or gasoline engines?
I would choose B, but not 100% sure the answer.

I actually stuck between A and B then crossed out B.
I actually thought B weakened the argument, because if it's not normally concentrated, then Shanon can't make a generalized statement?

ouch, I actually picked A. If my eyes didn't fail me, the difference is chili pepper crops vs. walnut crops? How can you tell which is correct?
Please comment if anyone can

The question is basically asking us a number that is multiple of 6. I use multiple of 6, because 6 is the next highest divisor that can actually result in a remainder of 5. That leaves us with 30 and 66. 30=6*5 (this is basically prime factorization, but I didn't break up 6, because the question is ...

C:W:M
2 5
5 W 11
the ratio of 2/5=5/W
25=2W
W=25/2
C : W : M
5 25/2 11
We can't have a fraction of people, so we mutiply the whole ratio by 2.
C : W : M
10 25 22
I hope this helps, please correct me if I made a mistake.
