<p>That may be correct. I just don’t see why one wouldn’t logically choose an integer?</p>
<p>okay. in that instance, x can be 5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15 or 16. Is that logical for you?</p>
<p>@anyone </p>
<p>if you gridded 8512 or 8152 instead of 8521, would the answer still be correct??</p>
<p>No because that isnt the largest number</p>
<p>@ linger</p>
<p>the question stated:
a. all different digits. b. last 3 add up to 1st. c. product is not 0. d. divisible by 10</p>
<p>nothing about “largest integer”
(as i recall)</p>
<p>No it stated “largest”. Sorry but you didnt get it right if you didnt have 8521.</p>
<p>where did it say that? and part d. cant be divisible by 10 because 8521 isnt divisible by ten…how sure are you that all possible arrangements of the number (w/ 8 in front) cant be correct?</p>
<p>It said that at the beginning of the question. It said something like “what is the LARGEST four digit integer that satisfies these conditions…”</p>
<p>BTW, one of the conditions was that the PRODUCT OF THE DIGITS be divisible by 10, not the four digit integer itself.</p>
<p>it said the largest 4 digit integer that met the requirements</p>
<p>and the number itself didnt have to be divisible by 10 but rather the product of the digits had the be divisible by 10.</p>
<p>youre right about the condition with the divisible by 10, but… are you 1000000% sure it said largest? what are the slim slim odds that one wrong can still yield an 800? =/</p>
<p>1 to 1,0000000000000000000000000000000000000000.</p>
<p>thats a joke right? ^^</p>
<p>is it honestly impossible?</p>
<p>yes it’s impossible. Im not joking. This test was not that hard.</p>
<p>i know it wasnt hard. but from previous comments, ppl had a general consensus that it was not easy.</p>
<p>is it less pts off for a wrong fill in than MC for math?</p>
<p>@max2107</p>
<p>Yes, it clearly stated the “greatest” 4 digit.</p>
<p>No matter how difficult the math is, one wrong is always 790 or less. You can’t have any wrong/omitted answers and get an 800. That’s just in CR where 2 wrong (in some cases just 1) still gets you an 800.</p>
<p>^ Wrong. Oct 2006, May 2009, and Jan 2006 tests all were 800 for -1 (math). I doubt that the curve will be that lenient for this one, but it gives us hope, right?</p>
<p>Okay fine so in VERY rare cases the curve allows you one mistake. But this one was nowhere near hard enough, it was barely more difficult than January where one mistake was torture - 770. I say 780 for one mistake.</p>
<p>Lol, I agree with that statement.</p>
<p>I found the missing 5 question. The question was 3x - 5 = y intersects y at (0,a). What’s a? Answer = 5.</p>
