    Your question was – How will you represent the term 140 with the help of roman numbers?

    Your correct answer is- d

    Now read this explanation for more clarifications:

    According to the rules used for writing the roman numbers,
    Letter I represents a value of 1
    Letter V represents a value of 5
    Letter X represents a value of 10
    Letter L represents a value of 50
    Letter C represents a value of 100
    Letter D represents a value of 500
    Letter M represents a value of 1000
    ∴ 140 can be written as 100 + 40
    For 100 we can use the symbol C.

    But, 40 cannot be written as XXXX, because we cannot the same symbol more than 3
    times consecutively.
    ∴ We can write 40 as XL

    Hence, we can write 140 as CXL in terms of roman numbers.
    Hence, the correct answer is option d.

  • Thanks for asking question on GMAT section,

    Your question was – The following table shows the details of marks secured by Tom, Jerry and Sam in 3 different subjects namely History, Geography and Science. The total marks that each subject is composed of are 150. Look at the table and answer the following questions.

    Tom: History – 110, Geography – 100 , Science – 105
    Jerry: History – 95 , Geography -105, Science – 115
    Sam: History – 115, Geography – 120, Science – 130

    i. By what percent did Tom score more than Jerry in History?
    ii. Also find out by what percent did Sam secure more marks in Science than Tom?

    a. i = 15.78, ii = 23.80
    b. i = 16.78, ii = 20.80
    c. i = 15, ii = 22.80
    d. i = 10.78, ii = 23
    e. None of the above

    Solution:
    Your correct answer is- a

    Now read this explanation for more clarifications:

    Solution for part (i):
    According to the data given in the question,
    Marks secured by Tom in History = 110 ……..i
    Marks secured by Jerry in History = 95 ……..ii
    Maximum marks to be scored in History = 150 ………….iii

    From equation i and equation ii, we can that,
    Tom secured 15 marks more than Jerry in History…….iv
    But, we have to find out the answer in terms of percentage.
    ∴ Increase in terms of percentage = (15/95) * 100 = 15.78 % …………. Solution for part (i)

    Now, solution for part (ii):
    According to the data given in the question,
    Marks secured by Tom in Science = 105 ……..v
    Marks secured by Sam in Science = 130 ……..vi
    Maximum marks to be scored in Science = 150 ………….vii
    From equation i and equation ii, we can that,
    Sam secured 25 marks more than Tom in Science…….viii
    But, we have to find out the answer in terms of percentage.
    ∴ Increase in terms of percentage = (25/105) * 100 = 23.80 % …………. Solution for part (ii)

    Hence, the correct answer is option a.

  • Thanks for asking question on GMAT section,

    Your question was –What is 12.5 % of 3565?
    Your correct answer is- e

    Now read this explanation for more clarifications:

    We have to find out 12.5 % of 3565.
    Let the answer be equal to ‘x’.
    ∴ (12.5 * 3565) / 100 = x
    ∴ x = 445.625

    But, none of the options represent this value.

    Hence, the correct answer is option e.
