했다는 사실을 알 수 있습니다. 또한 84년도의 총근로자가 80년도 근로자의 80%라고 했기

61. Bell X rings once every 12 minutes, bell Y once every 14 minutes, and bell Z once every
15 minutes. If, during a given day, the three bells ring at exactly the same instant, how many
minutes will elapse before the three bells next ring simultaneously?
(A) 60 (B) 210 (C) 420 (D) 840 (E) 2,520
Bell X는 매 12분마다, Bell Y는 매 14분마다, Bell Z는 15분마다 울릴 때 3개의 벨이 동시

에 울리고 다시 동시에 울리기 위해서는 몇 분의 시간이 흘러야 하는지를 물어 보고 있다.
최소공약수를 구하는 것과 같이 풀면 된다.
ÿ 정답은 (C)
62. How many bits of computer memory will be required to store the integer x , were
x = − 810 , 000 , if each digit requires 4 bits of memory and the sign of x requires 1 bit?
(A) 25 (B) 24 (C) 17 (D) 13 (E) 12
자릿수를 표시하는 데는 4비트, 양수인지 음수인지를 표시하는 데는 1비트가 필요하다고 말

하고 있습니다.
X = - 810,000 = - 900
ÿ 정답은 (D)

63. Of the science books in a certain supply room, 50 are on botany, 65 are on zoology, 90 are on
physics, 50 are on geology, and 110 are on chemistry. If science books are removed randomly
from the supply room, how many must be removed to ensure that 80 of the books removed are
on the same science?
(A) 81 (B) 159 (C) 166 (D) 285 (E) 324
supply room에 5종류의 책이 있고, supply room으로부터 임의로 책을 옮길 때 옮겨진 책 중

80권의 책이 같은 종류의 책이기 위해서는 몇 권의 책이 옮겨지면 되는지를 물어 보고있습
니다.
일단 80권 미만인 분야의 책을 모두 옮기면, Botany 50권 ,zoology 65권, geology 50권 총 165권
입니다. 그 다음에 80권이 넘는 분야의 책들 중에서 physics 79권,chemistry 79권이 옮겨오면
supply room에는 physics와 chemistry에 관련된 책만이 남겨지게 됩니다. 여기서 한 권의 책을
옮기면 physics 또는 chemistry에 상관 없이 옮겨진 책 중 한 종류의 책이 정확히 80권이 되
어집니다. 예를 들면 옮겨진 책이 physics일 경우 physics가 80권이 되며, 옮겨진 책이
chemistry일 경우 chemistry가 80권이 됩니다.
모두 정리하면 165권 + 79권 + 80권 = 324권
ÿ 정답은 (E)
64. In a certain game, a player can accumulate points only by scoring either an X , which counts
3 points, or a Y , which counts 2 points. If a player scored 24 points in the game and t
points were made by scoring X ’s how many different values could t have?
(A) Four
(B) Five
(C) Six
(D) Seven
(E) Eight
3 points와 2 points를 합하여 24가 되어야 하므로 3 X + 2 Y = 2 4

여기서 X로 취득한 점수는 언제나 짝수가(0, 6, 12, 18, 24) 되어야 한다. 왜냐하면 짝수와 짝
수의 합이 항상 짝수 24가 되어야 하므로 2 Y 는 항상 짝수이므로 3 X 가 짝수가 되는 경
우가 생각하면 됩니다. 즉 X = 0, 2, 4, 6, 8
ÿ 정답은 (B)

65. An apartment building has 9 floors with 2 n apartments per floor. If of the apartments
3
are to have walls removed to form, in each case, one bigger apartment from two smaller ones,
how many apartments will there be after the remodeling?
(A) 3n (B) 5n (C) 6n (D) 12n (E) 15n
remodel 이전에 18n개의 방이 있는데 아파트 방의 1/3의 벽이 헐려 하나의 아파트가 되므로

18n의 1/3인 6n개의 아파트 방수가 3n개가 되어 진다는 의미입니다. 즉 18n − 3n = 15n
ÿ 정답은 (E)
66. One-fourth of a solution that was 10 percent sugar by weight was replaced by a second
solution, resulting in a solution that was 16 percent sugar by weight. The second solution was
what percent sugar by weight?
(A) 34%
(B) 24%
(C) 22%
(D) 18%
(E) 8.5%
10% 설탕용액의 1/4이 다른 용액으로 대체 되어진 결과 16% 설탕용액이 되었을 때,다른 용

액의 설탕 농도를 구하라는 문제.
이러한 문제는 무게를 설정하여 주고 풀면 쉽게 풀 수 있다. 만약 10%농도의 설탕 용액이
100g이었다면 포함되어진 설탕의 무게는 10g이었을 것이며 1/4를 제거 하면 설탕은 7.5g이
남게 된다. 이러한 상황 속에서 다른 용액 25g과 혼합 되었을 때 설탕의 농도가 16%가 되
었다면 이제 100g속에 16g의 설탕이 있는 것이다. 이는 새로 유입된 설탕이 8.5g이었음을 가
르쳐 주고 있다. 새로이 유입된 설탕용액의 양이 25g이었으므로 4를 곱하여 주어 100g 내에
포함되어 있을 설탕의 양을 구하면 농도를 알 수 있다.
ÿ 정답은 (A)
