QUESTION ANSWER SOLUTION

100 – 98 = 96 – 94 = … = 4 – 2 =2
100 – 4 = 96
100 – 96 = 4
1 C 96 ÷ 4 = 24
24 + 1 = 25 pairs of 2
2 × 25 = 50

Divide the number sequence by 2, we have,

2 C 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23,
19 × 2 = 38

3 B

There are 3 ∆𝑠
3 × 180° = 540°
540° ÷ 5 = 108°

Ratio of speeds = 100 : 80

=5:4
4 D Ratio of time = 4 : 5
5 – 4 × 100% = 25%
