In a GMAC graphics interpretation question, a pie chart shows that 35% of costs are labor. If total costs are $200,000, how much is spent on labor?

35% of $200,000 = 0.35 × $200,000 = $70,000.
A two-part analysis asks you to determine if a dataset's median is less than its mean. Given values 2, 3, 3, 4, 18, what is the median?

Year 1: $110K, Year 2: $121K, Year 3: $133,100 after compounding 10% annually three times.
In a table analysis, you sort by 'profit margin' descending. Company X has revenue $500K and costs $425K. What is its profit margin?
Answer: 15%
Profit = $500K − $425K = $75K; margin = $75K/$500K = 15%.
A multi-source reasoning passage states a project is 60% complete after 9 months. At this rate, how many total months will the project take?
