Section by section, with a worked example

Every example below is generated by Outcry, drawn from the same generator that section runs during the timed sitting. None of it is SIG's own material.

A. Quantitative Evaluation

16 items in 20 minutes. Percentages, odds conversion, fast expected value, estimation and rate arithmetic. Estimation items state their tolerance in the prompt.

In this Outcry section: 16 items in 20 minutes, averaging 75 seconds per item. Wrong answers receive no marks and carry no deduction. Unanswered items score zero. Correct-answer weights are shown on the questions. These are the mock’s rules.

Example 1

An event has probability 3/20. What are the fair odds against it?

20 to 3
17 to 20
3 to 17
17 to 3

Answer 17 to 3

3 winning cases and 17 losing cases, so 17 to 3 against.

Example 2

The yard team alone takes 45 hours to strip the hull. Working with the contract team the job takes 18 hours. How many hours would the contract team take alone?

Answer 30

Rates add. Call the job 90 units. the yard team does 90/45 = 2 units per hour. The pair does 90/18 = 5 units per hour, so the contract team contributes 5 - 2 = 3 units per hour and alone takes 90/3 = 30 hours. Subtracting the times instead of the rates gives 27 hours, which is wrong.

Example 3

50% of a $5000 book is in one name, and 10% of that is in one strike. How many dollars is that strike?

Answer 250

5000 × 0.5 = 2500, then × 0.1 = 250.
