EducationRe: Not For The Weak Minds; Try This Quantitative Reasoning Question. by snowland(m): 5:18am On Jul 21, 2014
This is the only person that got it right. Even the OP got it wrong.
Answer 1: 10%
Answer 2: 33.33%

Tinkybabe: Let's assume she left home with t(20% of total money)
She left at home 4t (80% of total money )
and In total had 5t

Initial price of radio= (0.25t + t)= 1.25t= 5/4t
Final price = 50%(4t) = 2t
Original (should have been) price = y =7/4t



2t= y+(100/7%)y
2t= y+1/7y= 8/7y

Hence y = 2t(7/8 )= 7/4t

Now we have a uniform variable


1) difference btw original and initial price as a percentage of total money

Ie (7/4 -5/4 )t = 1/2t or 0.5t

% of total money = (0.5/5)100= 10%



2) what percent of the profit is the mark up price?

Total profit made = final price -initial price
ie. 2t - 5/4t = 3/4t

Mark up price = (100/7)% of y = (1/7)7/4t = 1/4t

(Recall y = 7/4t from above)

Percentage profit in mark up price =
(1/4 divided by 3/4)100
(0.25/0.75)100

= 33.33%**

PS-
Op..the second question is ambiguous- do you mean profit made from original price or final price?
I assumed profit from final price though.

CultureRe: Should People Hinge Their Future On Family Inheritance? by snowland(m): 7:45am On Jul 16, 2014
Why should your future depend on what someone else labored for? I read someone above saying if his/her father is IBB or Atiku, why should he/she go through stress from an insultive boss, I want you to know that what you do not work or labour for, you will NEVER value. Yoruba will say Ile ti a f'ito mon, Iri ni yio wo ( A house built with a pinch of saliva will crumble under the sprinkle of dew).

SportsFIFA Suspends Nigeria Indefinitely Cos Of Govt Interference by snowland(op):
The FIFA Emergency Committee has decided today, 9 July 2014, to suspend the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) with immediate effect, on account of government interference. Article 13, par. 1 and article 17, par. 1 of the FIFA Statutes oblige member associations to manage their affairs independently and with no influence from third parties.

The decision follows a letter sent by FIFA to the NFF on 4 July 2014, in which it expressed its great concern after the NFF was served with court proceedings and consequently an order preventing the president of the NFF, the NFF Executive Committee members and the NFF Congress from running the affairs of Nigerian football was granted by a High Court of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

The said court order compelled the Nigerian Minister of Sports to appoint a senior member of the civil service to manage the NFF until the matter was heard in court, without giving any date for such a hearing. The authorities then appointed a person who decided to convene an extraordinary general assembly on 5 July 2014. This extraordinary general assembly was convened in violation of the NFF statutes.

Originally, an elective congress had been planned by the NFF to take place on 26 August 2014.

The suspension will be lifted once the court actions have been withdrawn and the properly elected NFF Executive Committee, the NFF general assembly and the NFF administration are able to work without any interference in their affairs.

As a result of this decision, no team from Nigeria of any sort (including clubs) can have any international sporting contact (art. 14 par. 3 of the FIFA Statutes). During the period of suspension, the NFF may not be represented in any regional, continental or international competitions, including at club level, or in friendly matches. The most immediate effect is that Nigeria will not be entitled to participate in the upcoming FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup (5-24 August 2014) should the suspension not be lifted by 15 July 2014.

In addition, neither the NFF nor any of its members or officials may benefit from any FIFA or CAF development programmes, courses or training during the suspension period.
