Q:

Promotions and promotion mix :

What about the budget? We want our promotional campaigns to be cost effective enough. I don’t think we can afford celebrity endorsements as of now!

Answer

No problem. We can use network marketing as an alternative. The company already has its strong network of customers who can spread the word about its products. They can encourage referral rewards for say every three customers who will buy our product or avail our service.

We can also announce a contest for the customers to buy the product and win a chance to get himself broadcasted for the product advertisement. We can ask them to send in their photo along with the contest application form which they get alongwith the product they buy. So we don’t have to pay them as we would otherwise have to pay to a celebrity.

Q:

One pipe can fill a tank three times as fast as another pipe. If together the two pipes can fill the tank in 36 min, then the slower alone will be able to fill the tank in:

A) 81 min	B) 108 min
C) 144 min	D) 192 min

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 144 min

Explanation:

Let the slower pipe alone fill the tank in x minutes.

Then,faster pipe will fill it in x/3 minutes.

$= > \frac{1}{x} + \frac{3}{x} = \frac{1}{36} = > \frac{4}{x} = \frac{1}{36} = > x = 144 m i n s$

Q:

Simplyfiy : $[3 \frac{1}{4} \div \{1 \frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{2} (2 \frac{1}{2} - (\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{6}))\}]$

A) 78	B) 88
C) 98	D) 108

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 78

Explanation:

Given exp = $[\frac{13}{4} \div \{\frac{5}{4} - \frac{1}{2} (\frac{5}{2} - \frac{3 - 2}{12})\}]$ = $[\frac{13}{4} \div \{\frac{5}{4} - \frac{1}{2} (\frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{12})\}]$

= $[\frac{13}{4} \div \{\frac{5}{4} - \frac{1}{2} (\frac{30 - 1}{12})\}]$ = $[\frac{13}{4} \div \{\frac{5}{4} - \frac{29}{24}\}]$

= $[\frac{13}{4} \div \frac{30 - 29}{24}]$ =78
