Cottonwood financial Interview Questions, Process, and Tips

A certain sum amounts to Rs. 1725 in 3 years

and amounts to Rs.1875 in 5 years

so interest of 2 years = 1875 -1725

= 150

so interest of 1 year = 75

so interest of 3 years = 75 × 3 =225 rs

so , Principal = Amount – SI

= 1725 – 225

= 1500 rs

now ,

S.I. = P × N × R /100

75 = 1500 × 1 × R /100

R = 75 / 15

R = 5%

1.7% loss

ans: 250 rs exactly

The 3-digit number can be written as the sequence [n, 2n, 3n]
n = 1 → [1, 2, 3] → valid
n = 2 → [2, 4, 6] → valid
n = 3 → [3, 6, 9] → valid

n = 4 → [4, 8, 12] is not valid because this would lead to a 4-digit number
any value of n > 4 would also produce invalid answer

Answer: Three numbers: {123, 246, 369}

Let x and y be the two numbers. And x > y.
Then,
x + y = 80—–(1)
y=80-y
Also,
x = 4y – 5
Solving the two equations,
80 – y = 4y – 5
85 = 5y
Therefore, y = 17
put the value of y in equation(1)
then
x+y=80
x+17=80
x=63
the numbers are 17&63

The probability that no one opens the door would be
0.5×0.5×0.5×0.5= 0.0625
So, the probability that atleast one opens the door is 1-0.0625= 0.9375

p = prob(1st digit not 7)*prob(2nd digit not 7)*prob(3rd
digit not 7)
=(8/9)*(9/10)*(9/10)
=0.72

Put a= 4, b = 2 in the equation and multiplying by 2/2 then you will get same value in right hand side. It mean a is 2a which mean b<a
