1- D
If $$17$$ balls are removed from the bag at random, there will be one ball in the bag. The probability of choosing a brown ball is $$1$$ out of $$18$$. Therefore, the probability of not choosing a brown ball is $$17$$ out of $$18$$ and the probability of having not a brown ball after removing $$17$$ balls is the same.

2- B
Let $$x$$ be the smallest number. Then, these are the numbers: $$x, x+1, x+2, x+3, x+4$$
average$$=\frac{sum \ of \ terms}{number \ of \ terms} ⇒ 36=\frac{x+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+4)}{5}⇒36=\frac{5x+10}{5} ⇒ 180=5x+10 ⇒170=5x ⇒ x=34$$

3- C
The area of the floor is: $$6$$ cm$$×24$$ cm$$=144$$ cm$$^2$$, the number of tiles needed is: $$144÷8=18$$

4- C
The weight of $$14.2$$ meters of this rope is: $$14.2×600$$ g$$=8,520$$ g
$$1$$ kg$$=1,000$$ g, therefore, $$8,520$$ g$$÷1000=8.52$$ kg

5- C
$$4\%$$ of the volume of the solution is alcohol. Let $$x$$ be the volume of the solution.
Then: $$4\%$$ of $$x=24$$ ml $$⇒ 0.04 x=24 ⇒ x=24÷0.04=600$$

6- B
average$$=\frac{sum \ of \ terms}{number \ of \ terms}$$, The sum of the weight of all girls is: $$18×50=900$$ kg, The sum of the weight of all boys is: $$32×62=1984$$ kg, The sum of the weight of all students is: $$900+1984=2884$$ kg, average$$=\frac{2884 }{50}=57.68$$

7- C
Let $$x$$ be the original price. If the price of a laptop is decreased by $$20\%$$ to $$360$$, then:
$$80\%$$ of $$x=360 ⇒ 0.80x=360 ⇒ x=360÷0.80=450$$

8- B
Write the numbers in order: $$3,5,8,10,13,15,18$$. Since we have $$7$$ numbers ($$7$$ is odd), then the median is the number in the middle, which is $$10$$.

9- D
Change the numbers to decimal and then compare. $$\frac{11}{15}= 0.73$$…,$$0.74,75\%=0.75,\frac{19}{25}=0.76$$
Therefore: $$\frac{11}{15}<0.74<75\%<\frac{19}{25}$$

10- A
Let $$x$$ be the number of years. Therefore, $$4,000$$ per year equals $$4000x$$. starting from $$24,000$$ annual salary means you should add that amount to $$4000x$$. Income more than that is:$$I>4000x+24000$$
