PRACTICE QUESTIONS
QR5-4 Answer: C.
Total cost of renting a Type A motorboat for 3 hours = Deposit + Cost per hour × number of hours
For a Type A motorboat, if the deposit is x, then 135 = x + 2 × 25
Or, 135 = x + 50
Or, x = 135 – 50 = £85
Therefore, Total cost of renting a Type A motorboat for 3 hours on Monday = 85 + 3 × 25 = £160
Total cost of renting a Type C motorboat for 2 hours on Tuesday = 100 + 75 × 2 = £250 Percentage increase in Alan’s total cost
from Monday to Tuesday = (£250 - £160) × 100/£160 = 56.25%.
Abstract Reasoning – AR1
Rules
Set A
There are two circles each with two tangents. Other shapes are irrelevant
Set B
There is one circle with two lines transecting it. Other shapes are irrelevant.
AR1-1 Correct answer: Neither
Only one circle has two tangents so not A, one circle only has one line transecting it so not B. Therefore neither.
AR1-2 Correct answer: Neither
Two circles but only with one tangent each so not A, one circle only has one line transecting it so not B. Therefore neither.
AR1-3 Correct answer: Neither
One circle with one tangent so not A, one circle only has one line transecting it so not B. Therefore neither.
AR1-4 Correct answer: A
Two circles with two tangents so A.
AR1-5 Correct answer: A
Two circles with two tangents so A.
AR1-6 Correct answer: A
Two circles with two tangents so A.
AR1-7 Correct answer: B
One circle with two lines transecting it so B
AR1-8 Correct answer: B
One circle with two lines transecting it so B
AR1-9 Correct answer: B
One circle with two lines transecting it so B
AR1-10 Correct answer: A
Two circles with two tangents to A.
Abstract Reasoning – AR2
Rules
Set A
There are 2 pairs of shapes.
If the shapes are unshaded then the pairs are in an ×. If one pair is shaded then the pairs are in a +
Set B
There are 2 pairs of shapes.
If the shapes are all shaded then the pairs are in a +. If one pair is shaded then the pairs are in an ×
