Question 4: A farmer has decided to build a wire fence along one straight side of this property. For this, he planned to place several fence-posts at six metre intervals, with posts fixed at both ends of the side. After he bought the posts and wire, he found that the number of posts he had bought was five less than required. However, he discovered that the number of posts he had bought would be just sufficient if he spaced them eight metres apart. What is the length of the side of his property and how many posts did he buy? A. 20 B. 0 C. 21 D. 22

How To Improve Mock CAT Scores
Solutions: 1) Answer (B) If we join centres of 2 outer circles with the centre circle, it will make an equilateral triangle. Hence at the centre it will make an angle of 60 so total 360/60=6 triangles will be there Hence, 6 outer circles will be there.

Verbal Ability for CAT [Download PDF] 2) Answer (C) For obtuse-angles triangle, and c < a+b If 15 is the greatest side, 8+x > 15 => x > 7 and => So, x = 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 If x is the greatest side, then 8 + 15 > x => x < 23
So, x = 18, 19, 20, 21, 22 So, the number of possibilities is 10
3) Answer (A)
Let the total number of sides be x. (25*90)+(x-25)*270 = (x-2)180 x = 46 Number concave corners = x-25 = 46-25 = 21

4) Answer (D) Solution: Let the number of posts the farmer bought = x Length of the side = (x+5-1)*6 = 6*(x+4) Length of the side is also equal to (x-1)*8 => 8x - 8 = 6x + 24 => x = 16 Length of side = 6*20 = 120 m
HCF and LCM CAT Questions 5) Answer (C) Let the sides be x, y and 14-(x+y) x+y > 14-(x+y) => x+y > 7 x+14-x-y > y => y < 7 Similarly, x < 7 If x = 1, y = 7 (not possible) So, if x = 2, y = 6 if x = 3, y = 5 if x = 4, y = 4, 5 The cases for x = 5 and 6 are already taken care of by y. Number of possible cases = 4
