Squarepoint capital Interview Questions, Process, and Tips

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

A + B = 40.

And at Rs 7 a kg for 40 kg, you want a total of Rs.280.

So the second equation is 9A + 4B = 280

From the first equation: B = 40 – A

and sub into the second equation:

9A + 4(40-A) = 280

9A + 160 – 4A = 280

5A = 120

A = 24.

And you should check: B should equal 40-24 = 16. Check with the final equation: 9*24 + 4*16 = 216 + 64 = 280. So it works.

Your answer, of course, is A = 24

Doug won the race
Explanation-
The ratio of steps covered by me, Doug, and Anne is = 6:7:8

Since Distance covered in Me 21 steps = Distance covered by Doug 24 steps = Distance covered by Anne 28 steps

LCM (21, 24, 28) = 168

For a distance of 168 units, the ratio of the distance covered in each step is;
= 8 : 7 : 6
Therefore the ratio of speeds is;
= 8×6: 7×7: 6×8
= 48 : 49 : 48

Here, the speed of the Doug is more than the speed of me and Anne
Hence, Doug won the race

just will draw the line first and then draw three concentric circles

xy+2y-x=6
xy+2y-x-2=6-2
y(x+2)-1(x+2)=4
(y-1)(x+2)=4
so c is 4

first fill 3quart pail and pour in 5quart pail.fill again 3
quart pail and fill remaining 2 quarts in 5 quart
pail.hence 1 quart remains in 3quart pail.empty 5quart pail
and pour 1 quart from 3 quart pail. also add another 3
quart from 3 quart pail. hence 1 + 3 quarts = 4 quarts.

The number of ways of selecting a group of eight is
5 men and 3 women=5C5​×6C3​ =20
4 men and 4 women=5C4​×6C4​ =75
3 men and 5 women=5C3​×6C5​=60
2 men and 6 women=5C2​×6C6​=10
Thus the total possible cases is 20+75+60+10=165.

SHADOW

Explanation:

The number of ways of selecting three men, two women and three children is:

= ⁴C₃ * ⁶C₂ * ⁵C₃
= (4 * 3 * 2)/(3 * 2 * 1) * (6 * 5)/(2 * 1) * (5 * 4 * 3)/(3 * 2 * 1)
= 4 * 15 * 10
= 600 ways.
