Guys, since these are back to back angle, X+y =180, use that to find X and Y with the given ratios of 2/3.
You will get X= 72 and Y=108.

Similarly find the values of X and Y for the new ration of 3/2.
(Tip: Since the ratio is just reversed from the earlier ratio, you will get X=108 and Y =72 now.)

So the amount of angle difference will be X2(108)- X1(72)= 36

Also, I think this will come in geometry. So it shouldnt come in GMAT Focus.

Ignore the 9 it’s wrong 41- sqrt(12^2+ 15^2) +4 Used Pythagoras theorem since 12 and 15 can make a right angled triangle we can get the hypotenuse approx 19.21 and add 4 to it since the 5,5,4 make a rectangle. We get a 4

I used sqrt (16^2 + 15^2) to get to the actual distance.16=12+4. However, the OA says the actual distance is 15+12+4 since the 5miles right were taken only due to road blockage. The one without the road blockage is their actual distance.

(ab+b)(c+d) = 65

(a+b)(c+d)=65 = 13*5 ==> 18

Multiple values can satisfy that.

Is there any limitation on the sign of the integer ?

First we need to find the no. of multiples of 10 from 10 to 190 which is 19 Then, the sum of nos. of multiples of 10 from 10 to 190 which is 1900. So, the average would be 100.

How did you arrive at 1900?

Are you sure the question just mentions they are integers and not "positive integers"?
Because if they are just integers then (a+b)(c+d) could be 1 and 65 or - 1 and - 65
