1. 1 + 12+ 8 + 9 = 30,
hence (D).

2. COOTAMUNDRA has 11 letters, but the 0 and the A are repeated

10. A cube has 12 edges,.
Alternative 2
The box full weighs 242 kg and 188kg half full, so half the contents
weighs 242 - 188 = 54 kg, so the full contents would weigh 108 kg
and so the box weighs 242 - 108 = 134kg,
hence (C).

When each corner is cut off as shown, this gives three extra edges 14. (Also I 9)

The number of edges is then 12 + 8 x 3 = 36, Then LSQT = 90 - x and

If x = 3 then both lines must total 24 and this is possible with 3, 4,

26. (Also 125) 27. Let the large rectangle have dimensions 5n x 30m.
Alternative 1 Then either 5n : 30m = 5 : 4 or 5n : 30m = 4 : 5.
Hence either 20n = 150m or 25n = 120m,
With the 5 c coins, we start with 120, after the 10 c coins there are or, 2n = 15m or 5n = 24m.
60 left, after the 20 c coins there are 40 left, after the 50 c coins The smallest values of n and m are then either n = 15,m = 2 or
there are 40 left (as the 50 c coins replace the 10 c coins), and 32 n = 24,m = 5, .
left after the $1 coins (as 8 of the 40 are divisible by 5), leaving 32 with corresponding numbers of small rectangles either 15 x 2 = 30
5 c coins. or 24 x 5 = 120.
Similarly with the 10 c coins, we get, 60, 40, 20 and 16 left; The smallest is 30,
with the 20 cent coins we get 40, 30, 24 left; hence (A).
with the 50 c coins we get 30, 24 left;
with the $1 coins we get 24.

the following table for the first 30 positions:- small, (27 or 28), and 15 or 16 would make it too big (41 or 42).

except P and T. L
Therefore the broken line L join- "
ing the centres of the squares cut
by PT starts in the centre of the
square closest to P, ends in the
centre of the square closest to T
and consists of lines of length 1
parallel to either of PQ and QT.
SO L consists of 48 vertical,seg-
ments of length 1 and 59 horizon-
tal segments of length 1.
Hence the length of L is 48 + 59 = 107 which implies that 108
squares are cut by PT. Similarly, 49 + 40 - 1 = 88 squares are cut
byTS.
The total number of squares cut is then 108 + 88 = 196,
hence (B).

"The smallest sum involving a 3 digit number is

123 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 > 144,

. so the sum includes only one and two digit numbers.

Taking out the addition sign between two consecutivenumbers n
and n+ 1 increasesthe total by 9n (10n+n+ 1- (n+n+ 1) = 9n),
for example, replacing 3 + 4 by 34 increasesthe total by 27, which
is 3 x 9.
Now, 1+ 2 +3+4+5+6 + 7+8+9 = 45, and so to obtain a total t
of 144, we need to increase the total by 99, Le. 11 x 9.
Apart from the givenexample, this can be done by replacing 3 + 4
and 8 + 9 by 34 and 89 to get 1 + 2 + 34 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 89 = 144;
or by replacing 1 + 2, 3 + 4 and 7 + 8 by 12, 34 and 78 to get
12 + 34 + 5 + 6 + 78 + 9 = 144;

12 + 3 + 45 + 67+ 8 + 9 = 144.

or by replacing 1 + 2, 4 + 5 and 6 + 7 by 12, 45 and 67 to obtain
