  1. A General Scholastic Ability Test professional needs to calculate a 15% increase on a base value of 240. What is the result?

    Answer: 276

    15% of 240 = 0.15 × 240 = 36. Adding this to the base: 240 + 36 = 276.

  2. In General Scholastic Ability Test, if a process has a completion rate of 85% and 340 items were started, how many were completed?

    Answer: 289

    85% of 340 = 0.85 × 340 = 289 items completed.

  3. A General Scholastic Ability Test report shows values of 42, 38, 45, 51, and 34. What is the mean (average)?

    Answer: 42

    Sum = 42 + 38 + 45 + 51 + 34 = 210. Mean = 210 ÷ 5 = 42.

  4. If a General Scholastic Ability Test project budget is $50,000 and actual spending is $57,500, what is the percentage over budget?

    Answer: 15%

    Over budget amount = $57,500 - $50,000 = $7,500. Percentage = ($7,500 / $50,000) × 100 = 15%.

  5. In General Scholastic Ability Test, a ratio of 3:5 is used to divide 480 units. How many units are in the larger portion?

    Answer: 300

    Total parts = 3 + 5 = 8. Each part = 480 ÷ 8 = 60. Larger portion = 5 × 60 = 300.

  6. A General Scholastic Ability Test survey collected responses from 600 participants. If 72% responded positively, how many responded positively?

    Answer: 432

    72% of 600 = 0.72 × 600 = 432 positive responses.
