Let us start answering this by taking an example. Consider a square ABCD. From A, only one diagonal can be drawn - AC. From B, only one diagonal can be drawn -...
To calculate diagonals of an n-sided polygon, use the formula n(n-3)/2. In this case the number of sideds of the polygon is 63. No of diagonals = 63(63 - 3) /...
Ok. I want to finish the controverse about what we mean by diagonals. In my post I wrote that a diagonal is just any segment line unifying two vertex of a...

Hi all,I am planning to take GMAT exam (or rather give it a try). I have no idea where/how to get free material for prep. I would prefer soft copies. Can any...
Answer is E.  (1) tells us that y has to be odd, either negative or positive  Formula for the remainders: y=2m+-R    y = -1, y= 2*(0) -1,  R=-1 ...
Answer is definitely A. The number of women wearing red t-shirts: 0.7*w Number of people (men and women) wearing red t-shirts: 0.6*(w+m) With statement1: ...
the answer would be A. consider option 2: the digit 2 is also a prime no and the remainder in that case wouldnt be 1. so we don't get an exact single answer. ...
Following is my answer to the question... Statement 1 alone is sufficient and so A should be the answer... Question is asking us to determine if Y is an odd...

Just another thing to keep neurons running.The problem must state that y is an integer for if not (-1)^(y+1) yield more solutions that are not integers. For...
Dear all, If my understanding is correct, one needs to be able to find a *unique* value for Y. With 1, we could find that Y should be odd, which means Y could...
