10) If everybody at a party shook hands with each other, and there was a total of 66 handshakes. How many people attended the party?
ANS: With two people, there is one handshake. With three people, there are three handshakes. With four people, there are six handshakes. In general, with n+1 people, the number of handshakes is the sum of the first n consecutive numbers: 1+2+3+…+n. Since this sum is n(n+1)/2, we need to solve the equation n(n+1)/2 = 66. This is the quadratic equation n2+n-132 = 0. Solving for n, we obtain 11 as the answer and deduce that there were 12 people at the party.

At the same time, if there is anyone on the platform with any useful or workable information to rely upon should reliably divulge it forthwith…
Some applicants for the Graduate positions have received emails and text messages asking them to update their details through the portal with deadline as 27th October.
Cheers.
Thank you for the immediate response to my previous message. To say the least, you have assuaged my once disturbed feelings..I, therefore, rest my case henceforth!
Habah! This platform is just too quiet. Please, who has the latest info to share concerning the Dpr?
Any update?
Portal closed. What could that mean?
It means you can’t access their site again as an applicant because that was the email and password you used during the registration and application process. They’ve compiled the list & results, will soon be published. Successful candidates will be contacted. Pray & have faith in God.
Honestly, I don’t know why the result is not yet out, although, we are not going to see result, only successful candidates will be contacted via their mails or mobile numbers.
We are axiously waiting for them.
Guys, this place is so quite. Who has got some info for us?Share, pls…
Presumably, i feel successful candidates amongst the multitude that wrote the aptitude test might have been contacted via their emails and or mobile phone numbers since it’s taking almost forever to get a feedback from the DPR management…[just thinking, anyways–however, their palpable silence might just not be unconnected to what am thinking at d moment]
Guys, this platform is so quiet. Who has got some info concerning our test results? Pls, share…
hello! it’s bn two months now since we wrote the DPR aptitude test. Does anyone in d house have any firsthand information about the result, if it has bn released or not? if yes, such individual on this platform should kindly relay d info herein…

And Verbal reasoning pls
My experience yesterday 27,nothing more than GMAT especially number series test, analogy test,deductive interference test, quantitative reasoning test.so if u are good in that, success!
I wrote today, I was supposed to write by 9:30 but I arrived there by 8:15 and I took the test, you can take the test at any time, your time starts when you login, it’s 5 sections A to E, 9 questions each, 45 questions for 45 mins, please don’t start with the maths, it will waste your time, I did it last and I was happy I did, I finished before time and was able to go through my maths, you can change an answer even after saving it, the sequence, analogy , fill in the gap, was cheap, the maths require time, the English was more like verbal reasoning, u will read a short sentence and chose options that follow or do not follow, generally it was good, they lifted questions from GMAT, I saw some questions that I studied in GMAT. Just make sure you save your answer, once you save your answer it will take you to the next question, and remember if you decide to change your answer, make sure you save your answer. I wish you all good luck. It’s not difficult, believe in yourself. See you in the next stage…..

@ Glory, does it time someone out. that is, if you are unable to finish by that 45 minutes can you still submit? there was one i did at unilag (CBT) once you cannot submit by that 45 minutes, that is the end of the test. if the 45 minutes lapses and you did not submit that is the end. is it like that in this test? Sorry to bother you.
Please don’t allow the 45mins to elapse before clicking submit oooooooo.
As the time reach 20sec, submit immediately.
Make we await our result which will be glorious.
Thanks a billion.
please should I keep phone at home or go with it….my center is in PH and am in delta…need ur advise please
i just finish with mine. there were 5 sections as the good people of the house has told us. Maths, verbal (analogy), sequence and Series, Logical reasoning and English (fill in the gap).
Note:
if you are not too good at maths, dont spend too much time on it. it is 1 minute per question and the maths can take 2 to 3 minutes to solve if you are not too good at it, the verbal analogy is quite fair (not too hard, just brain work), Sequences and series too, if you are good at maths you wont have issues with it. it’s quite relatively easy, the english, you should go and learn how to use the phrase – cast out, cast off, cast away, cast up and cast aside. there are about 4 or 5 questions that have these five options. go and learn how these phrases are used to connect sentence. and logic; for me was cheap but there was no time to reason, so you might fall into the same trap too. just go there and be prepared with these 5 section. Nothing like reading, its all based on your reasoning and past experience. primary school work, etc.
there was one question i remember in the verbal analogies
HORN:BULL then the option follows. cant remember.
the the series too are mosrly in the multiples of 3, one was in 6, one they were adding two numbers to get the net ……. like 1,2,3,5,8; there was another one like this 1,2,3,6,…, i am very sure of this one and the answer was 18.
the logic looks like this
if all buses are cows, all cows are trees and all trees are roads(just a sample), then four options will follow
with one of the option stating all of the above
that is all i could remember.
also note that the timimg is at the top of the computer and it will count down to 00. please make sure you submit before the computer time you out cos we dont know the implication of this.
Cheers!!! and good luck.
GOD WILL CROWN OUR EFFORT WITH SUCCESS IJN. AMEN
@Olamilekan, Thanks a whole lot for this helpful information. God Bless you.
Please Brother, the last section you did not state among the 5 sections you talked about, what kinds of questions were involved in it? Were they current affairs, Abstract reasoning or discipline-based/ general knowledge? Clarification in this regard will be highly appreciated. Thanks Bro.

On my application status i saw Pending-successful submission. What does that mean? Pls anyone with useful information?
Yepa! It means you forgot to submit ur form during application. It almost happened to me too. I didn’t know I have not submitted for a about 3 weeks after filling my application form. It was just in one afternoon that I strolled to a Cafe and I met some people applying for dpr, so I joined them in answering some necesaary questions. So after answering the whole questions, I discovered that the guy that handled the mouse scrolled to a submit icon which I didn’t notice when I was doing mine. I quickly ran home, took my laptop and logged on to my dpr account, it was there I realized have not submitted and I quickly did so.
Pls house do any one have questions relating to human resources? I need it… Pls response
pls house any update from the DPR test today,if there is pls share with the house, thanks.
My view…
55-A
71-Conduction, Radiation and Convection
58-D
59-C

26-C
37-D
39-C (“going” in the first sentence means that that person is already on the journey)
I dropped this based on some answers I saw here. These are my views which is still subject to correction.
Also…

Good afternoon, those people written exam today how was the exam, pls share ur experience with us
Well, to a large extent, the questions were not as difficult as I thought they would be. But I noticed, that they may not be in the same format all through.
So, I will advice that you may do less of reading your field textbooks, and focus more on General Aptitude Test Questions; most especially, English and general Mathematics.
All the best.
Noted.

Answer to QTS 10…… With two people, there is one handshake, with three people, there are three handshakes. with four people, there are six handshakes.
In general, with n+1 people the number of handshakes is sum of the first n consecutive numbers: 1+2+3+4…………..+n.
since this sum is n(n+1)/2=26 this is quadratic equation
n^2 +n=66/2
n^2 +n=33
solve for n
3n=33
n=33/3
n=11
obtain 11 as the answer and deduce..

I received an e-mail on one of my e-mail account but is different from the one i used as my username. I used two e-mail during registration but the one I used to complete the application is not the one i received e-mail from. Kindly advise. Thank you
Oladimeji, check your trash or junk or draft or spam in the email address you registered with
Please can you all hep me with the formula to use to solve 52 to 55 thnks
Lizzy no 10 is 12 people.
explanation…. 11+10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1+0=66
TNX OJO. COULD YOU SEND ANS TO D QUESTIONS I SKIPED?
Biko, how is it 12. Why the addition ? Pls someone shld help me
the number of handshakes was given but not the number of people so for a lay man like me what i did was add up 1+2+3+4+5….. and see to which number you will get 66.. so in this case its 12. so , if you add from 1 to 12, you will get 66. thats my simple way of solving it
very correct
you people should do ur calculation very well …1 E=115
explanation… the man takes 16 complete step in 10 sec.16/10=1.6 which is one second, at d same rate the man takes 1.6×72=115.2~115 complete step
1.E 2. A 3.B 4. A. 5.C 6. B .10. 33 PEOPLE 13. D 14.D 15.B 16. A 17. D 18 A 20 C 21 B 22 A 23 C 24 B 25 B 26 A 27 C 28 B 29. B 30. A 31. B 32. C 33. A 34. B 35. B 36. B 39. B 40. C 41. A 42. D 43. B 46. C 47. C 48. A 53 B 54 C 55 A 56 B 57 B 58 D 59 C.

Printout the mail and go for the test.
No 5 is D sorry.
v = Pi * r * r * h
v = 3.14* 1/2(6*6) *15.
v= 847.8ft3
Hi Moji, Ques 5 is C.
V=πr2h
r = 1/2*6 = 3
h = 15
V = 3.14159*3*3*15
V = 424.1
question 5 is C
V=424.1
v=pi×r^2×h
where p=3.14, r=redius that is half diameter ie 6/2 =3 and h=height
v=3.14 × 3^2 ×15 = 3.14 × 9 ×15 = 423.9 approximately 424
That’s what I think
Which is C
Right guys Mojisola pls take note. Cheers

How is number 1.A?
The answer is E.
16———–10
y————-72
cross multiply
16×72 = 10y
1152 = 10y
y = 1152/10
y=115.2
approximately 115
Nice Glory!
No. 3 is B
Yes 3 is B
What about other answers, are they all correct?
23A Power of a resistor is P=VI~V=P/I =4/3=1.33v

Good job Bro. God will reward you handsomely.
Please guys should be careful in buying past question materials from sites like studenthub.com.ng.They are not reliable. They just tricked a friend.
For Abuja residents, Pls can we meet at Abuja tomorrow 20/07/2017 by 9am for group discussion.
i missed this day, when is the next disscussion
plz house my test is monday 24th.lagos.. i need pass question
Any Kano candidate in the house?
I’m KANO brother. 26 by 9:30
Thanks sir, am wrting mine 25th kano
i am writing the test too.
thank you for this oooooo
Thanks. Mine is at Ikorodu, JKK Building, Lagos.
Nath, we share the same venue but my exam date is july 27, thursday…time is 2pm
Does your date and time sync with mine..if yes lets connect so that we can arrange for our meeting point and trace how we can locate our venue with ease?….my number and whatsapp is 081*****… tnx
Besides who have solved the answers to the questions especially the mathematics n physics questions…they are mind blowing to me coz me and calculation have not bn good friends since I graduated from.secondary school for a long time now
You know the place?…. What’s your date?
Same place too on the 29th
Mine too that same building on the 29
aderonke same centre same date, wea do u stay in lagos, pls if u get more materials , I don’t mind
bro I’m having the same centre with
u at jkk building ikorodu
mine is jkk building too, on 28.
Please note JKK BUILDING is NOT in IKORODU AREA but it is on IKORUDU ROAD in ANTHONY AREA of LAGOS…..Please don’t mix IKORODU AREA of Lagos with IKORODU ROAD…..This two areas are far apart….I thought I should send this note of warning to those who are not really sure of this place….
Once again JKK Building is on Ikorodu Road in Anthony NOT in Ikorodu Area of Lagos……Take Note!!!!
Thank you for the correction…. that’smy venue for the exam…July 27 Thursday…. time…2pm
How can I get to d place from Oshodi…….the bus to board to JKK Building
Thank u… Success to all
In addition, the JKK building is between Obanikoro Bus stop and Anthony bus stop. If you get down at Obanikoro, you will have to trek forward as if you are going to Anthony and if you get down at Anthony, you will have to trek backwards as if you are coming to Obanikoro.
The building is very conspicuous. Just like AA said, it is nothing near Ikorodu.
Is it close to FIDSON pls?
you can input the address on google maps, it will show you the place, its at anthony area, you have to turn and go under the bridge area, and walk down to find the place .. go and locate the place a day before
Nath, not ikorodu exactly but ikorodu road along Anthony axis…the address is different from ikorodu town close to the outskirt of Lagos…So don’t get d location mixed up….Just want to put us in the right direction
Does your date n time (27 Thursday July/ 2pm) coincide with mine?
Me too that’s my centre. How safe is ikorodu now?
My venue is also JKK Building Illepejo, Ikorodu Road, and i dont know any where there o
