The aim of Success Point at any point in time is to ease the difficulties passed by Nigerian students. Here we have looked into some likely questions that the University of Ilorin might pick out and how to tackle it.
If you are in possession of a book which contains past Post Ume questions, then you must have come across some sort of Maths questions which seem too strange and time-consuming. Do not feel disgruntled. There are easy ways to walk your way through these. Let me give
you an example:
If today is Tuesday, what day would it be in the next 50 days?. …… Here is the solution:
First, you need to know that if you keep adding 7 days to that Tuesday, you will keep getting Tuesday. For example, today is Thursday, 7 days from now would be Thursday, 14 days from now would still be Thursday, and so on. No matter what, adding 7 days would keep giving you Thursday. OKAY? Same goes with Tuesday and any other day.
So, if you are given this sort of question above: “If today is Tuesday, What day would it be in the next 50 days?”.
Just divide 50 by 7 and add the remainder to Tuesday. It would be like this: 50/7 = 7 Remainder 1.
The remainder 1 means you should count one day from Tuesday. Hence, the answer would be a WEDNESDAY.
You see? Not that hard. There are easy ways to calculate all these sort of questions without wasting your time.
