Hi peeps....I am helping my son prepare for common entrance exams....kindly let me know if you can decode what's going on in this samples...thanks...

Add all the figures together to get a multiple of 3.

That is the summation of all the figures must be divisible by 3.

But in 2nd and 3rd,1+2+3=6
0+4+5=9

Is not wrong, is not the same with the other two

You mean subtract 7
Divide by 7
I.e 5 o 2= 5*2= 10
10/7= 1 remainder 3.
The answer is 3

The second question is multiplication modulo 7, that is to say that if you multiply two numbers and get a product more than 7, minus 7 and write the remainder.

That 0 is definitely a typo error
most of these quantitative reasoning textbooks are filled with type errors. I once wrote to my nephe's teacher, pointing out errors in one book like that

lanre2009:



1.) 35-5-10=X
Answer X=20

2.) 7-1-X=2
Ans X=4

3.) 21-X-6=12
Ans X=3

4.) X-14-28=56
Ans X=98


Its simply addition or subtraction depending on which side your chose to start.. Hope this helps.

For the first option in the example, i feel it's a typo error

No error anywhere

The summation of the four numbers give you multiple of 3

A. 16+8+4+2 = 30

B. 1+2+3+6= 12

C. 4+0+5+9= 18

Me too. I had a study group and we aced our common entrance exams. None of us got below 500.

I am looking forward to solving quantitative problems with my kids but, as i have gotten to realise, the Nigerian education system is very much inadequate
