Hey guys.
I took the gmat FE yesterday and I have got the mail saying I can view my official score.
When will I be able to see my score in individual sections? I can only see the final score on my account.
I can’t even see the overall percentile and the sectional percentiles

Are you checking on the mobile browser or a desktop based one ? I had trouble opening it on the mobile browser as score expansion pop-up wasn’t appearing

Three fair six sided dice , each numbered 1 to 6, are rolled once. What is the probability that resulting three numbers are in the arithmetic progression( an arithmetic progression is a sequence of numbers such that the difference between the consecutive terms is constant)?
A 1/36
B 1/18
C 1/9
D 1/6
E 7/36

Can someone please help me with this ?

Sorry but I didn’t understand the explanation in it

The solution says that 1:1:1 rolled is also an arithmetic progression

Yeah, because (1,1,1), (2,2,2), (3,3,3)… are all in AP because d=0 in this case

Since avg age was 30 years, 10 years ago, now the avg age must be 40 years. So, total years = 40*6 = 240 but two years ago we lost a 52 years old guy, who would have been 54 years by this year and a baby was added 6 years ago, adjusting for these in the total = 240-54+6 = 192 years. Total guys = 6+1-1 = 6. Average age of family today = 192/6 = 32 years.
