A sample question from this test
A team of 2 boys and 2 girls is to be chosen from 8 boys and 10 girls. In how many ways can this be done?
- 1,270
- 1,250
- 2,520
- 1,260
Answer: D. 1,260. Ways = 8C2 × 10C2 = 28 × 45 = 1,260.
How to approach this test
Ranking and Order: Position from one end plus position from the other end minus one gives the total; draw the line and mark positions rather than doing it mentally.
Permutation and Combination: Decide first whether order matters (permutation) or not (combination). Repeated letters divide the count by the factorial of each repeat.
Probability: Probability is favourable outcomes divided by total outcomes. Count both carefully and reduce the fraction at the end.
Clock Problems: The minute hand moves 6° a minute and the hour hand 0.5° a minute, so the angle at h:m is |30h − 5.5m|. Take the smaller angle if it exceeds 180°.
This set mixes straightforward questions with a few that need an extra step, so it works well as a checkpoint once the basics are comfortable. At 25 questions in 35 minutes, you have about 84 seconds per question on average. After you submit, review every wrong or guessed answer using the explanations.
