SAplayer:

Basically the paper had easy questions...only reason why it should have been difficult for some is because of time constraints!

My Gal Says the Earlier Part Q are Harder ....
A Lot of students may spent too Long Looking at these earlier Q, so Not Much Time left to do the Later Q, Which She Says is Very Easy.

432 / 4 = 108, so it means the number is the last number in the 108th row.
108th row is an even row. Last number in the even row ends in Column A.

NOO.. my ds thought even ends in D

Notice that all the multiple of 8 is in A[/quote]It may be clearer if we work in groups of 8.
432/8 = 54 remainder 0. So 432 is the last number in a group of 8 i.e. D (oops! sorry last number is A. Thank you Pen88n for the correction.)

My ds says Pp 1 was easy but the majority found PP 2 very difficult-:(

The last number in the group of 8 ends in column A.

Hi Guitar, how did u get 26? Because Qn 15 asks for least no. of days. I agree this is a trick question, so cannot start reading on Mon. Must start on either Thurs or Fri. Then can get 24 days. My DD also got 26, but she knows her answer is wrong.

Q14


row - A - B - C - D
1.----1......2.......3......4
2-----8......7.......6......5
3-----9.....10......11....12

in which column is 432 in
1. A
2. B
3. c
4. D

Ans: 1. A

This is maths olympiad question . A is correct , because as u realize, if you get the number and divide it by 4, when the answer is an even number, then it is in column A. but when the answer is an odd number, then it shuld be in column D
