Rhemmymatician: If u are a teachers, i pity ur student. Olodo.first interprete wat is meant by 100 times. Then u will pass. Just imagine if someone tells u am better dan u times 100. Dos dat mean u shud add 100 to ursef. It simply mean multiply ursef in 100 folds. Go meet any kindergaten pupil nd get ursef tutored up. 1 Like |

Shinelle: Shinelle. for question 3 You just nailed it. U are very wise and smart. Most people just read question without understanding wat it says. Thats why some fail exams after bragging how sweet the exam was. Wanted to paste the analysis but you just told them the in simple word. Kudos to u. More blood to ur brain. but question2 might b wrong,incomplete or ur answer cud be wrong. check this. The question never stated if the machines are running simultaneously. But if we check the question well using the example stated as 10 machines=10 minutes=10 doughnut, we can deduce that the machines are not working simultaneously cos if they do, the ratio will be 10 machines = 1 minute= 10 doughnut. But one oda thing is that we don't know how long it can take a machine to produce one doughnut hence we assume 1) if the machines are working simultaneously and the efficiency is set to 1 machines =1 minute =1 doughnut the ratio can be 10 machines=1 minutes=10 doughnut 2) if the machines are working simultaneously and the efficiency is set to 1 machines =10 minute =1 doughnut the ratio can be 10 machines=10 minutes=10 doughnut 3) if the machines are not working simultaneously and the efficiency is set to 1 machines =1 minute =1 doughnut the ratio can be 10 machines=10 minutes=10 doughnut 4) if the machines are not working simultaneously and the efficiency is set to 1 machines =10 minute =1 doughnut the ratio can be 10 machines=100 minutes=10 doughnut from analysis above we can say that 2 and 3 are likely to be the case.Hence we will use those one to calculate the missing TIME. 5) if the machines are working simultaneously and the efficiency is set to 1 machines =10 minute =1 doughnut the ratio can be 100 machines=10 minutes=100 doughnut 6) if the machines are not working simultaneously and the efficiency is set to 1 machines =1 minute =1 doughnut the ratio can be 100 machines=100 minutes=100 doughnut CONCLUSION THE COMPANIES KNOWS BEST. BUT ONE THING FOR SURE IS THAT THE QUESTION NEEDS TO BE ADJUSTED AND IF NOT , I WILL GO WITH MY ASSUMPTION 5 AND 6 1 Like |

C + G= 110.....1
G=100C+C....2(100 times more than)
C+(100C+C)=110

Seelurd: 3. A man wants to venture into business so he buys a dozen (12) eggs for 5naira and sells them for 3naira. From his calculation, if he sells 20eggs daily, in 1year (7300eggs) he will be a millionaire. And his calculation is correct. How is that possible? 7300eggs÷12=608.33dozens 608.33dozens x N5=N3,041.67k 7300×N3=N21,900 Pls tell me where wrong. |

3) we don't cheat in maths. d question is certain dat he was correct. he bought #5 a douzen and sold #3 a douzen. he was doin biz at a loss.(ceteris paribus) capital at d begining of d yr.......#1001,216 loss per douzen. #5 - #3 equals #2 loss per 20 eggs( daily loss) 20/12 * #2 equals #3.33 yearly loss. #3.33*365 days. equals...... #1,216 therefore, at d end of d yr he has 1million. (capital - loss) that is, #1001,216- #1,216 equals to a millionnaire. |

Capital247: Thanks for trying out your mathematical skills... But note: If 12eggs = 5naira 1egg = 5naira/12= 0.42naira and not the 2.4naira you wrote there. 1 Like |

odimbannamdi: Questions 1 and 2 have been answered. 3. Becoming a millionaire is not always from being poorer. You can become a millionaire after lossing money as a billionaire. So the answer is the man is currently a billionaire and will become a millionaire after incurring losses. |

Seelurd:Wow!? 1st question: who touched you as a child? Or were you dropped on the head as a baby? Why are you so silly, crass, dumb, and plain immature, because I'm not sure what you are playing at. Did you just do the above for likes or lols. You should see a shrink, you can't have the mentality of a 3 year old retarded child forever. *sigh* Secondly: your English is awful. Work on it. Thirdly: perhaps I omitted the 'times' in front of the 100 mentally, a honest oversight. With that, my answer checks out and i'm good, BUT what baffles me is that I didn't see you give it a shot and yet you are slating someone that did. Haba! |

chiziking:Thanx 4 calling my attention...Pls see below... I'll go & modify Q1, Glove=G; Cup=C G+C=110 .............(1) G=100+C ..............(2) from (1) C=110-G ..............(3) Also, from (2) G=100+C ...............(4) insert (3) into (4) C=110-(100+C) C=110-100-C C+C=110-100 2C=10 C=10/2 C=5 Putting C in eqn (4) G=100+5=105 Therefore, d cost of glove is 105Naira while dat of cup is 5Naira; Since d question says The cost of the glove is 100times more than that of the cup Q2, Answer can be 10Minutes or 100Minutes, depending on d explanation (D question is not complete) for 10minutes, if 1 machine is responsible to produce each donut for 100minutes, if d donut has to go through each of the machines Q3, 12 eggs bought @ d rate of 5naira & sold for 3naira? Even if u sell 100 crates per day, the business will continue to record a loss of 2naira per dozen. Therefore, I don't think it is possible to profit. 1 Like |
