Samuel Smith & Son Interview Questions, Process, and Tips

ANS = 24.
16 = 2^4
24 = 2^3 x 3
H.C.F of 16 and 24 = 8
L.C.M will be 48

list price – actual price markrd by the company
net price (average price of all items inclusive all discounts,breakage & so on.) which is 425 i.e. 50% of the marked price
hence the list price or marked price is twice the net sale price = 850
50%=425
100%=?
=100%*425/50=850

these are question tht are seem to be like it consumes
time. so dont see jus the question and run to the next .
ans. a) 12
if 9 balls are added then the ratio to the combination
becomes 2:4:3.
9 balls make the ratio 3 for grey balls in tht mixture.
so the factor is 9/3 = 3 (in tht mixture)
so the same factor has to be maintained through out the
ratio. so black balls is 4 * 3 = 12 and white balls is 2 *
3 = 6.

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}
