Kate has decided to buy a new television. If Kate waits for the sale, how much will she save? Sam works a hour week in retail. How many hours per week does Sam spend on the shop floor? How much does the fitness device cost? To do this, look for common factors shared by the whole number and the denominator of the fraction, and cancel them out.
In this case, we can see that both and 10 are divisible by 10, leaving 55 and 1 respectively. Now complete the equation by multiplying the whole number by the numerator, and dividing the result by the denominator:. Answer: The rule for this pattern is to add 4 to the previous number, so in this case, the answer would be C. Answer: This sequence is solved in the same way as above, even though the missing number is in the middle.
In this question, the missing term is D. This pattern combines geometric and arithmetic sequences, and the rule is that each number is the previous number multiplied by two, and then add one.
The difficulty here is establishing the right combination of mathematical functions that are needed. In this example, the next term in the series would be 95, so the answer is A. To start with you need to find the HCF.
The best way to do this is to write out all the factors of both and The factors of are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 10, 14, 20, 25, 28, 35, 50, 70, , , , and As is the largest number, it is the HCF. Big Ben is 96 metres tall. Sam makes a scale model of Big Ben to a ratio of What is the simplest form of this ratio? At a recent departmental meeting, one of your more senior colleagues appears to be acting intentionally awkward towards you.
Whenever you make suggestions relating to the topic area being discussed they interrupt you and come up with reasons why your suggestion is not workable. You have known this person since you joined the business six months ago and you have always got on well.
They have been with the company for over 2 years and seem to be well respected by most people. You have heard rumours that they are having personal issues at the moment. You are only 1 hour into an all-day meeting. What would you do? Wait until the next coffee break and ask the colleagues you are closer to whether they have noticed this behaviour and ask for their thoughts on how to deal with the situation, particularly considering the delicacy of the personal issues that may be ongoing for the individual concerned.
Ignore their behaviour and continue to input to the meeting in a confident and supportive manner. This will show your peers and manager that you can handle difficult situations and as you have always got along well with this person in the past this is probably a one-off. Everyone has bad days and as a colleague, it is up to you to not make anyone feel worse than they do already.
Attempt to face the problem head-on in the meeting. Wait to see if it happens again and then politely ask whether they have an issue with you that they would like to discuss in more detail. Wait until the coffee break and then ask the person you are having the issues with if they could spare five minutes for a chat.
Politely ask them whether you have done something to offend them as you feel their attitude towards you this morning has been somewhat negative. Ask if there is something you can do to improve the situation as it is making the meeting awkward for everyone.
Least likely. This response could make the problem worse on several levels. Sample Test for Financial Accounting Multiple Choice Identify the letter of the choice that best completes the statement or answers the question. Accounting Principles Question Paper, Answers and All questions carry equal marks.
Questions 1 to - Download. Someone who is prostrate is? The word for writing that is impossible to read is? What is the most appropriate word to describe preparation for an ordeal? Look up any words that you were unsure of the meaning of, or were unfamiliar to you. In careers where skills with words are required, particularly in writing, your result on Test 1 can be a good indication of your educa- tional level. Sometimes the meaning is not always exact, but you have to find the general principle that connects different words.
You are given a problem and you have to select the best answer from the alternatives given. For each question there are alternative answers. The first one has been done to show you how. Examples 1. Which is the odd one out?
Feathers are found on birds. The other words are all connected because they describe the covering of animals. The answer to Question 2 is a. Books are found in a library and a plant would be found in a garden. The connecting idea is therefore to do with a set of things that can be grouped together in a particular place.
Explanation The instructions to the test ask you to make a connection between words. It can help to change the instructions into your own words, so you make what you have to do clear to yourself. It can mean link or join or attach. If something is the odd one out it is not in the group or class. To make sure, do not be afraid to question the test administrator to make sure you have got the principle correct before you start. Anything else you are uncertain about? If you are doing this test under timed conditions, you have 10 minutes to complete it.
You must work accurately and quickly. Should you move on or not? In most tests, questions become increasingly difficult. However, some- times leaving an item on which you are stuck can free you up and prevent you wasting time and effort on a hopeless case.
Also, you are quite likely to find some later questions easier than some of the earlier ones even though they may be more difficult for most people.
You have probably read the advice on guessing if you have already done Test 1. Briefly, do not do it unless you have a very strong hunch. Ask the administrator, because if accuracy is one of the things being looked for then guessing too many times in a test may count against you. However, two guesses will not count much against you even if you get both wrong, although random guessing is unlikely to improve your score. These vary, but the general rule is that in a test with four alternative answers, one mark is deducted for every three errors you make.
No marks are deducted if you give no answer at all. This is because you could be expected to get one in four of the items correct if you guessed randomly. This test has 39 questions, so if you simply guessed at every answer the like- lihood is that you would get about 10 right.
But then you would be deducted one point for every three you got wrong, that is, 10 marks, so your final score would be zero. The one-third of a point deduced for each error is rounded up or down to the nearest whole number, so on this test a single error does not count against you, whereas your two errors lose you a point. Finally, the marker or test administrator might well make a note that your work has a lot of guesswork, which is not likely to put you in a good light with potential employers.
Find out whether this will be the case before you begin. Test 2 is an example of a type of test that probably appears most frequently for all sorts of selection and assessment purposes. You can greatly improve your performance on tests like this if you read news- papers, articles and books that challenge you with new words and ideas.
Use opportunities, particularly if you are doing a routine task, such as driving the car, working out at the gym or even housework, to listen to BBC Radio 4. Because of the amount of information you are sometimes asked to deal with, it is recommended that you have some scrap paper available. You are given some facts from which you must answer the question.
Only one of the alternative answers is correct. Pete swims faster than Bill, but is not as fast as Jan, whilst Jean always beats Jan. Who is fastest? The problems in this test are complicated, so it is unwise to try to keep all the information in your head.
Working out the possibilities is difficult this way. Instead, it is helpful to get into the habit of putting the information you have down in a way that helps you to arrange it and make sense of it. Although this may seem to slow you down, it will actually increase the certainty of obtaining a correct answer. Explanation For this type of problem, it is almost always useful to draw up a chart. In Example 1 it can be helpful to place the names in an order with the fastest at the top and the slowest at the bottom.
Jo, Cathy and Sally all have two favourite foods. One of them does not like potatoes. Cathy is the only one to like pasta.
Sally likes potatoes. Cathy and Jo like salad. Who likes beans? Explanation The question is about what foods different people like, so it is possible to draw up a table like this: People Jo Cathy Sally Foods Pasta Potatoes Potatoes Salad Salad As you begin to write in the information you are given, it becomes easier to work out the correct answer.
The only one left for whom you have not yet found a favourite food is Sally. Therefore, it follows that it must be Sally who likes beans. If you are timing yourself, you have 15 minutes for this test. Work as accurately and as fast as you can. Jacky is taller than John. Who is tallest? Chris and Andy play tennis. Who plays football and tennis? Who plays tennis and basketball? On your scrap paper, place the names in a line, then write the activities under each name. However, Sam and Sarah also have more hobbies than Bill.
Who has the least number of hobbies? Uniform is not worn at the school attended by Bill, Sally and Harry. Susan, Bill and Sally wear black shoes. Sally, Peter and Harry wear a white shirt or blouse. Who wears a white shirt or blouse with a uniform? Who does not wear a uniform and does not have black shoes? Joe grows quickly, but is still just beaten by Angie. Ed is shortest for a time, until his place is taken by Mabel. Who is now the tallest? Who is now shorter than Ed? Fred, John, Garth and Joe own their own houses.
Fred and John have single-storey properties while the houses of the others are on two floors. John and Joe have gardens while the others do not. Who has a computer in his two-storey house with a garden? Who has neither a garden nor a computer? Butter is kept below the eggs while cheese is kept above the milk. The butter is also above the milk, but the eggs are on the same shelf as the yoghurt. The ice cream is above the cheese. What is on the bottom shelf?
Which are on the same shelf? You have to make more deductions as problems like this become longer. Using scrap paper to put everything down makes it easier to deal with all the information and how each piece relates to the others.
Casey and Billie have nylon tents. The others have canvas ones. Casey and Colin have zips with their tents, while the others have draw- strings. Ritchie and Casey have sewn-in groundsheets as well as plastic sheets for the ground.
The others only have plastic sheets for the ground. Who has a zip on the nylon tent? How many people have plastic sheets in tents that are not made of canvas and have no zips?
Who has a canvas tent that has a zip, but does not have a groundsheet? Kelly and Sam are the only ones to have been to both France and Mexico. Robina and Sharon are the only two who have been to Spain as well as India.
Sharon and Kelly are the only ones to have been to both Greece and France. Who has been to Spain, but not to France? Who has been to India, but not to France? Who has travelled to the most countries?
Which is the only country that Sharon has not visited? The other houses have white ones. The Bagshaws and Mrs Chance have their window frames painted the same colour as their doors. Miss Jenkins has black window frames. Who has a house with white curtains, window frames and a white door?
Who has window frames and door painted white, but green curtains? Who has window frames and door painted black, but white curtains? They must each wrestle each other. In all, there are six fights until the winner is decided. Herz is beaten by Costello. Emrik beats Herz. Costello and Fuji beat Emrik. Fuji beats Costello and Herz.
How many fights does Emrik win? How many fights does Costello win? Who is the final champion? Four of them get postcards from France. Cheryl and Tom do not get postcards from Germany as the others all do.
Cheryl only gets a single card, which is from Italy. Only Sally and Sandy did not get postcards from Italy. Who received a postcard from only Italy and France? Who received three cards? Who are the two people who received the same number of cards from the same places? In total, how many cards were received by the whole group? The three shirts the three boys wear are of three different sizes: small, medium and large.
So are the jackets and the pairs of shoes. The jacket belonging to Ted is not a medium one. Which boy has the medium jacket? Which boy has the small shirt? Test 3 shows an aptitude for critical thinking, so is often the type of test used for selection in many high-level and professional careers.
You have to work with the rules of numbers: addition, subtraction, division and multipli- cation. It is also important to understand decimals, percentages and frac- tions. It is the most abstract of the tests in this chapter.
Again the mathematical rules are simple, but you have to comprehend a pattern between the numbers, which is a more abstract process than mere arithmetic. A dot is placed after the whole number to show where the fractional part begins. For example, This gives 3. This gives Fractions are anything can be divided into any number of equal parts. The total equal parts of anything are written below the line and the number of those equal parts we are taking out of the total is written above the line.
To find the fraction of a sum, as when everybody has agreed to pay equal amounts for something, first of all divide by the number of parts. Any fraction can be added to or taken away from any other fraction provided that the number below the line, that is, the total number of parts, is the same. This will give you the number that ensures that the fractions can be added. So, 3 and 5 both can divide into The answer has to be written clearly on the right hand side of the page in the space provided.
If this book is not your own, record your answers on a separate sheet. In the examples below, the first and second have been done for you. Do the others yourself, writing in your answers clearly. You can do the sums in your head if you want to or you can do your working out on spare paper.
You will see some working out that has been done in a spare space for Example 1 and Example 2. How many is 27 and 54? Two people spend exactly the same amount. How much does one person spend?
