Rain means Kim takes the bus. Kim walked, so it isn't raining. The rule says nothing about dry days, so Kim might take the bus then too — only the contrapositive is safe.
A $50 shirt is cut by 20%, then the new price rises by 20%. What does it cost now?
$50 − 20% = $40. $40 + 20% = $48. The rise is taken from a smaller number.
What comes next? A, D, G, J, …
Each letter is three places after the last (skipping two): A, D, G, J, M. Numbering the letters (1, 4, 7, 10, 13) turns letter patterns into number patterns.
Four trains leave at the same moment. A: 180 km at 90 km/h. B: 150 km at 60 km/h. C: 100 km at 80 km/h. D: 300 km at 100 km/h. Order them by arrival, first first.
Correct order
Time = distance ÷ speed: C 1¼ h, A 2 h, B 2½ h, D 3 h.
Build a word ladder from COLD to WARM: each word changes exactly one letter of the word before.
