(by the way, this is the exact reason why the more bulky "(Just) as..." construction even exists in the first place -because "like" can't draw an analogy between two different things. if you could do that with "like", then the "as" construction most likely wouldn't even exist in the language, because there'd be no need for it.)

(2) make sure you know that "enough THAT" is incorrect. the 2 idioms mentioned above verb are correct. you only need the 2nd helping if the sentence is ambiguous without it. here's an example: james is more likely to meet with thomas than lydia --> unacceptable, because there are two meanings. in this case, you have to add a helping word to dispel the ambiguity: a)james is more likely to meet with thomas than is lydia (meaning #1) b)james is more likely to meet with thomas than with lydia (meaning #2) but james is more likely to drive to work than lydia you don't need "is" here, since this sentence can only mean one thing.

Kernland imposes a high tariff on the export of unprocessed cashew nuts in order to ensure that the nuts are sold to domestic processing plants. If the tariff were lifted and unprocessed cashews were sold at world market prices, more farmers could profit by growing cashews. However, since all the processing plants are in urban areas, removing the tariff would seriously hamper the governments effort to reduce urban unemployment over the next five years. Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument? A. Some of the by-products of processing cashews are used for manufacturing paints and plastics. B. Other countries in which cashews are processed subsidize their processing plants. C. More people in Kernland are engaged in farming cashews than in processing them. D. Buying unprocessed cashews at lower than world market prices enables cashew processors in Kernland to sell processed nuts at competitive prices. E. A lack of profitable crops is driving an increasing number of small farmers in Kernland land and into the f X and Y, off thetheir conclusion says that X cities. will lead to Y (X: removal of tariffs, Y: urban unemployment).Option E weakens this by indicating that by not doing anything (i.e. with the status quo of high tariffs), we'll have more urban employment. This indicates that X will probably lead to reduction in Y, than increase in Y. Option E does not give Alternate Cause rather It is saying that if X , then Y not going up but going down, which is contrary to conclusion which says X will increase Y. In option E, Same cause that is 'Removal of Tariff' is modified to show situation when Tariff is not Removed (Farmers going out of work).

Error Detail Difference between - x increased by 110% and x is 110% of y .In first case, if x=50 ,then 50X110/100+50 or 50X2.1=105 , In second If in a Range question, we have not been given greatest and least number, but we are given difference between any two numbers Take the given statements as true, then test if keeping that statment in your mind as true ,you can check various alternatives that Question on integer =w-z=2,then there is only one integer between them. Statement B has taken a specfic information that is difference between 10:30am and 11:10am and their respective work done dur 0.rstu If 100 is Total number that includes N(AUB) +N(notA Intersection notB) , THEN 100-N(notA Intersection notB)= Either A or B =N(A)+ In a rectangular solid, all angles are right angles, and opposite faces are equal, so rectangular solid can have maximum 3 different a 1st Case -If base is square then roof and the base which is LXB is one area and another area is the middle part which is LXH or BX If something in Full or Whole outcome is given, but if that whole outcome depends on different prices or different wage rates etc Look at statement 2- Learning- If any member in a series has a value equal to Average or Mean of the given series then that value w a given point is Equidistant from other two points only, if given point lie on the Perpendicular Bisector of line joining other two poi Average = 80 , AvgM <75 , AvgW>85 , both Avg M and Avg W will move in opposite direction with same magnitude or same distan Second statement does not give me any clue to where r is located, thus it gives me leeway to move r. a)Remainder will always be smaller than divisor(for e.g 73/37). b)As divisor increases , remainder decreases.c) Dividend can be Even/Odd-For any set of consecutive integers with an odd number of terms, the sum of the integers is always a multiple of the num HCF -The greatest common divisor is the largest integer thatthe evenly divides bothfrom 35x and 20yINSUFFICIENT: . (1)Gross Revenue Will DIFFer because we are adding Final amount Ratios Statement (1) says that the ratio of computers to printers sold in the first half of 2003 was 3 to 2; one set of values satisfying this statement is 3 computers and 2 printers. Using example prices of $5 per computer and $1 per printer, we arrive at a gross revenue of $15 from computers and $2 from printers. During the second half of 2003, the ratio of computers to printers sold was 2 to 1; one set of values satisfying this

If exponentiation is indicated by stacked symbols, the rule is to work from the top down, thus:

a m n =a (m n ) and not (a m )n , which on the other hand equals to a mn .

So:

(a m )n =a mn ; a m n =a (m n ) and not (a m )n .

Do Bookmarked Ratio Questions and Search for Statistics Questions (1) x^2-4x+3<0 (This rule will be true ONLY WHEN X itself is positive.) (x-3)(x-1)<0 as LHS is less than 0 or negative, then to write the range for the values of x - You need to put x>smaller value and x<greater value 1<x<3 (This rule will be true ONLY WHEN X itself is positive.) (This rule will be true ONLY WHEN X itself is positive.) (2) x^2+4x+3>0 --> (This rule will be true ONLY WHEN X itself is positive.) as LHS is more than 0 or positive, then to write the range for the values of x - You need to put x<smaller value and x>greater value x<-3 or x>-1

I say at max, as for example recta e middle part which is LXH or BXH they will be equal (because l=b ,base is a square). 2nd Case - If all sides are equal as happen in cube then there is ices or different wage rates etc , then we need to have different prices or rates. the given series then that value will also be the Median of the series because - For e.g if Average is Rs 2 , there are three members A,B,C. Salary of B is R ctor of line joining other two points.(See OG explaination pg321) h same magnitude or same distance from 80 , only,if Number of Men = Number of Women, For e.g Number of Men and Women =10 ,then if Group Avg

there are three members A,B,C. Salary of B is Rs 2, we need to find the median,then in order to keep the Average Salary equal to 2, We need to have t

en in order to keep the Group Avg to 80, Individual Avgs will move in opposite direction by Different Distance from 80. Because Women are more in nu

ance from 80. Because Women are more in number, thus the difference between Group Avg and Avg W will be Less than the difference between Grou
