Example Question #9 : How To Find The Missing Part Of A List
Five candidates are running for school board. A voter chooses two of the candidates.
Which is the greater quantity?
(a) The number of ways a voter can mark his or her ballot
(b)
It is impossible to tell from the information given
(a) and (b) are equal
(b) is greater
(a) is greater
(b) is greater
This is a choice of two out of five without regard to order - that is, the number of combinations of two out of a set of five. This is
There are ten possible ways to choose, and 
Example Question #10 : How To Find The Missing Part Of A List
Refer to the above diagram. The top row gives a sequence of figures. Which figure on the bottom row comes next?
Figure (c)
Figure (d)
Figure (b)
Figure (a)
Figure (c)
The square with the diagonal line alternates between the square on the left and the square on the right. Therefore, the next figure in the sequence will have its diagonal line in the rightmost square, eliminating Figures (b) and (d) and leaving Figures (a) and (c).
Also, the shaded square moves one position to the right from figure to figure, so in the next figure, the shaded square must be the one at the extreme right. Figure (c) matches that description.
