Two brothers shared 35 oranges in the ratio 3:4. If the younger brother took the smaller share, how many oranges did he take?
(a)20
(b)42
(c)15
(d)5
EXPLANATION:Seems you have not mastered the art of solving ratio.
First step, add the ratio (3:4 → 3+ 4=7) to get the total and then express the smaller ratio over the total
3 / 7 x 35
= 15
If 6/x = 3/2. What number does x represent?
(a)9
(b)12
(c)6
(d)4
EXPLANATION:'Practice more questions on algebra.
The first step is to cross multiply (3 x X) = (2 x 6)
3x = 12
divide both side by the value beside the alphabet and that is 3
X = 4
Which of the following gives the prime factor of 60?
(a)2, 3, 5
(b)2, 3, 5, 12
(c)2, 3, 6, 15
(d)2, 5, 6, 10
EXPLANATION:'Break 60 down into factors and pick the prime numbers
60 = 5 x 12
60 = 5 x 3 x 4 ( 12 is broken to 3 x 4)
60 = 5 x 3 x 2 x 2 ( 4 is broken into 2 x 2)
Now in these array of factors, pick out the prime numbers
2, 3, 5
Look of this series below. What number should come next?

(a)2280
(b)2100
(c)3000
(d)4080
EXPLANATION:You probably didn\'\t arrange the numbers properly.
Write the numbers from right to left. That means the two 10 will fall under 40 in the arrangement. Now do this and try again
.
Find the value of t /12 = 5/4.
(a)5/16
(b)5
(c)15
(d)10
EXPLANATION:You need to up your skill on this!
Cross multiply ( t x 4) = (5 x 12)
4t = 60 ( now divide both side by 4)
t = 15
