The KPMG quantitative reasoning aptitude test is not so difficult. It covers topics like fractions and decimals, averages, ratios and proportion, word problems, probability, data interpretation among others.
By practicing over and over again with these tests, you will know what to expect; improve your speed and confidence; and be really prepared for the actual test.
Below is an example of the numerical reasoning test:
The distance between Adeleke?s house and college is exactly 135 miles. If she drove 2/3 of the distance in 135 minutes, what was his average speed, in miles per hour?
- 40
- 45
- 60
- 5
- It cannot be determined from the information given.
Since you want to solve for speed, it is important that you recall the speed formula. Speed is calculated as distance divided by time.
Begin by calculating the distance. You are told in the question that Adeleke covers 2/3 of 135 miles. This is equivalent to (2/3*135) 90 miles.
The next step is to calculate the time. You could just have made use of 135 minutes if you were asked to calculate the speed in miles per minute. The question requires that you convert the minutes into hours by dividing it by 60 minutes. That is (135/60) 2.25 hours.
With the distance (90 miles) and time (2.25 hours), the average speed in miles per hours is (90/2.25) 40.?The correct is therefore A.
