Faster solving technique help | Pacing issue


Can anyone suggest a faster way to solve this, gave a Powerprep practice test and lost 4-5 points because of a pacing issue, need tips on how to quicken calculations

Use calculator or work in estimate . for eg:

small x β†’ 12
Medium x β†’ 28/3 around 9
Large x β†’ 39/4 around 10

Thus, maximizing Medium is the best followed by large then small

Thus, basically you’re only checking for option B and C and if you look it very carefully then C is the only choices as it contains only Medium and large
