  • My name is Richard, But, Mum, that's me there in the middle of old chap on.

  • And I'm going to give you a number off practice test questions within this tutor.

  • I'm gonna make it fun and test your abilities.

  • And I'd also appreciate it if you gave the video.

  • I like Thank you.

  • Thank you very much.

  • So let's get straight into the tutorial and take a look at a typical kind of psych about to test questions.

  • I'm gonna give you a tutorial. 00:00:59.920 --> 00:01:5.350 Walkthrough, give you some tips on out Toronto it quickly, and then I'm gonna get you to try some questions yourself. 00:01:5.540 --> 00:01:8.100 Question Number one is a numerical type of question. 00:01:8.330 --> 00:01:8.720 Mr. 00:01:8.720 --> 00:01:17.390 Brown wants to purchase a suit, a pair of smart shoes, a belt and a tie, which cost £119.

  • 99 £24.97 14 about 50 and £12 respectively.

  • How much change will he have from £205?

  • Is it £33?

  • 66 b £33.54 c £34.54 or D £45.

  • 54.

  • So you'll see those numbers are pretty closely aligned now the only important pieces of information we need or the numbers themselves.

  • Now there is usually a lot of distracting information in these kind of questions.

  • So it says there, Mr Brown wants to buy a supersmile, choose a belt, and that information is designed to confuse you.

  • So all you have to do his work is focused on the calculation. 00:01:56.570 --> 00:02:1.180 So all we need to do is to add all of those items up to get the answer. 00:02:1.190 --> 00:02:16.960 £171.46 then do the calculation which is £205 because that's how much he has on the question is how much change we have from the amount minus 171 46 and we get the correct answer, which is be £33.50 force at the tip.

  • There is not to focus on all of the distracting information.

  • Look for the calculation.

  • That's the tip.

  • Look for the calculation.

  • So let me get you to try one, and you can use a calculator if you want to.

  • Now it's your turn.

  • Please put your answer to question two in the comments section below this video for market, and I come on here each day and mark them for you.

  • Okay, so here we go.

  • Similar kind of question.

  • Jessica's mom wants to buy her a pair of Armani shoes.

  • Lucky Jessica.

  • A skirt from Prime mark.

  • Maybe not so lucky.

  • A hat on a pair of jeans, which cost £297.11 pounds, £17.25 £69.50 respectively. 00:02:59.740 --> 00:03:1.650 How much change will she have? 00:03:1.840 --> 00:03:3.570 From £410? 00:03:3.570 --> 00:03:9.320 Is a £25.12 b £15.25 c £12. 00:03:9.320 --> 00:03:13.450 55 d £15 Travel E None of these.

  • So you have the time.

  • It takes this timer on the right hand side to come down to the bottom and please put your answer in the comments section below the video for marking.

  • Here we go.

  • Okay, so hopefully you got to want to that in the time you can find the time I've given you their it's pretty tight.

  • You will get usually a bit more time than that in a typical psychometric test.

  • So if you need more time, please do pause the video.

  • It's important you get the calculation correct.

  • And don't forget focus on the calculation, not the distracting information, right?

  • Try another one.

  • Please put your answer to question three in the comments section below the video for Mark and here we go. 00:03:59.040 --> 00:04:3.320 Bill wants to buy some refreshments during halftime at the sporting event. 00:04:3.620 --> 00:04:15.890 If Bill buys an £8.45 burger Big Burger, a £7.45 milkshake, a £3.10 packet of crisps on a £4.75 bag of chips.

  • Apart from having severe indigestion, how much change really?

  • Out from £24 is it a £23?

  • 75 b £1.25 c.

  • £2.25 d 25 pence or e None of the so you have the time.

  • It takes the time to go down to put your onto the comments section below.

  • Here we go.

  • Okay, Fandango.

  • Well done.

  • Brilliant stuff.

  • Let's move on to another county question now.

  • So this is a different kind of 11 that utilizes map but is a little bit more tricky. 00:04:57.870 --> 00:05:8.680 So stick around question for two Children want to balance on a seesaw, So there's a see saw their child a weighs £25 sits five meters away from the fulcrum. 00:05:8.680 --> 00:05:10.270 Now that is the fulcrum point.

  • If you didn't know, most people don't, but that's the pivot point.

  • They're the fulcrum, and that word is used a lot in these kind of tests.

  • So chilled A, which is their ways £25 sits five meters away from that Fulcrum Point child be weighs £50.

  • How far away from the fulcrum should child be sits in order to balance the seesaw, so the plan is to balance it.

  • Is it a five meters be to me to see 2.5 meters or d want me to.

  • The answer is C 2.5 meters.

  • But how do we calculate this quickly?

  • Well, there is a method here we get, so the answer is C 2.5 meters.

  • Now remember this Wait Times distance must be equal for two uneven waits to balance.

  • So the weight of child A, which is 25. 00:05:59.250 --> 00:06:4.880 You got £25 there times five meters, which is the distance gives you 125. 00:06:5.220 --> 00:06:9.370 Now to calculate the distance of child be even though he or she is heavier. 00:06:9.480 --> 00:06:13.950 All we do is take that distance 125 divided by their weight.

  • 50 to get 2.5.

  • Okay, so just quickly repeat that to get the to get the distance.

  • The wait Times the distance of the 1st 1 They must be equal for two uneven waits to balance a child.

  • A is £25 times that by the five meters gives 125 and all we have to do is go 125 divided by the weight of child be, which is 50 to get the answer.

  • 2.5, right, You have got this.

  • Please put your answer to question five in the comments section below the video for market.

  • So we've got the same seesaw with the fulcrum point there.

  • Here's the question two Children want to balance on the seesaw child.

  • A weighs £50 sits 10 meters away from the Fulcrum child. 00:06:57.760 --> 00:07:0.250 Be weighs £100. 00:07:1.040 --> 00:07:3.070 How far away from the fulcrum should child be? 00:07:3.070 --> 00:07:4.950 Sit in order to balance the seesaw? 00:07:4.960 --> 00:07:6.630 Is it a five meters? 00:07:6.660 --> 00:07:15.090 Be two meters C 10 meters or D one meter and you've got the time It takes the time and to go down to zero to put your answer in the comments section below.

  • Here we go.

  • Brilliant.

  • Well done.

  • Let's move onto a different kind off question.

  • I hope you're enjoying these A question of a six if cog a rotates anti clockwise or counterclockwise if used.

  • Used to that word, how many cubs will rotate clockwise?

  • Is it a one B to C three or de force?

  • So the first thing we always need to know with these kind of questions, which way is anti clockwise and which ways clock.

  • Quite so.

  • If you think of a clock face, let's say that is the face of a clock.

  • Clockwise is the way the hands would go around to the right. 00:07:57.440 --> 00:08:1.040 An anti clockwise or counterclockwise is then going backwards. 00:08:1.050 --> 00:08:4.070 So whenever you think of anti clockwise, counter clockwise clockwise. 00:08:4.130 --> 00:08:9.220 Always picture a clock face and the way the hands go around normally, that's clockwise. 00:08:9.490 --> 00:08:12.240 So how do we answer these questions?

  • Well, it says if Corday rotates anti clockwise, which is that way, how many codes will rotate Clockwise will be because they alternate Would be clockwise.

  • See will be anti clockwise D would be clockwise.

  • Any would be anti clockwise.

  • So the answer is simply be two of them would rotate clockwise, which would be D on B.

  • Okay, your turn.

  • Please put your answer to question seven in the comments section below the video for market.

  • Here we go.

  • If called B, which is that one there rotates clockwise.

  • You know which way clockwise is which way will cause either took one rotate Is there a clockwise be anti clockwise and you've got the time It takes the time to go down to zero to answer the question.

  • Here we go. 00:09:4.640 --> 00:09:5.460 OK, brilliant. 00:09:5.460 --> 00:09:5.860 Well done. 00:09:5.860 --> 00:09:11.170 Now, if you want to practice amore off these, there's a link disappeared right there in the top right hand corner.
