Thanks Shakir 🙂
please explain the working of this question
Which question?
24/(-3)(4-7)+4-2exp3
explain the ans
You are mistakenly multiplying (-3) and (-3) first, that’s the mistake. As 24 ÷ (-3) × (-3) ….. = (-8) × (-3) ……
= 24 …..
That’s the correct version. When division and multiplication comes together, start solving from left to right, and solves for arithmetic operation which comes first (i.e division in the above question). You have read this in the concept, but missed this point here while applying that concept.
Mubasher brother, I am highly disappointed in you. I thought this forum was to help people secure their GAT but the way you are misguiding people has shocked me. As far as this question is concerned, simply put this into the calculator which will give ”-1.333”. Here is it: first, multiply the brackets, divide by 24; it gives 24/9 then in any order, add 4, and subtract 8( that is 2^3). It gives -4/3. So, for God’s sake, do not misguide people. You should do what you are capable of. Educating others is a sensitive issue, and it brings huge… Read more »
Hi Tayyab, I guess you are too emotional, and forgot to think while writing this comment whether you are doing mistake in calculation or not. Let me help you while pointing out your mistake. I wish this will bring your emotions and anger to abate. And always comment by taking emotions and aggression aside, and let the logic and reasoning play its role, so it will convince me as well as all students listening or reading you. This also portrays your personality. So always be helpful when someone seeking. And if you think there’s any mistake (as nobody is perfect),… Read more »
Mubasher brother, The time since I saw your email last night, something, deep inside myself, was bothering me. But I could not assess what it was; though I knew it had something to do with my shortcomings. And now I realize what it is. Mubasher bhai, leaving aside whether your version of the solution is right or not, I would like to offer my sincere thanks for providing such a platform for preparation. And why am I thanking you, while I had previously resorted to saying you are misguiding people? Because I have benefitted a lot from the free course… Read more »
No, never mind. I believe people like you push me to get out of my comfort zone and do things better and better, and improve.
In Sha Allah
Jazak’Allah
Yes, you are right. I have not yet proofread the material because of lacking time. There are several mistakes. The course requires too much improvement, and soon it will be corrected. In sha Allah. I will be much happy if people like you would correct me and criticize me over not having proofread properly yet. I don’t drag religious sentiments, rather I take help from it. If I really have aim to correct someone, I must correct in a specific way and manner. And if I have aim to despoil someone, then I might opt for showing disappointment etc in… Read more »
how come the answer is -20 too for this question? can you kindly explain that im a little bit confused
Hi Ahmed,
Yes that was typo error. It’s only +20. Now corrected.
hello pls its possible can u explain this question?
Hello Tayyab,
I’m not biased but I think you have not understood the statement, fully.
Sir says that if the question is 24/{(-3)(4-7)}+4-2^3 instead of the given then the answer will be the one you have obtained when first doing the quiz.
Correct. 🙂
JAZAKALLAH
Question 2 has One Parenthesis missing
if you are talking about this one
24 divide (-3)(4-7) + 4-2^3,
it is right and its answer is 20
I, already believed that the answer is correct but, also just checked it on the online calculator
and the answer was 20.
So, it is requested to all of you to look into the question at various angels and then react. It is these (meaningful) hurdles which can guide us towards a true GRE or GMAT exam.
answer is correct but a parenthesis is missing(not missing confusing) in question 2 instead of ‘(‘ this one ‘{‘ is placed
hi… will you please explain how can -20 and 20 both are correct answers ?
waiting for reply .. over all thankyou so much .. this helped me alot
Hi Ujala,
Thanks for pointing this typo error. I have correct it now. Answer is +20, not both.
