Number Properties-Guide 1-4th Edition-Chapter 8

by apoorba Mon Sep 21, 2009 11:15 am

The issue is with the problem numbers mentioned in page 106 of Number Properties.
I am referring problem numbers from OG for GMAT Quantitative Review (2nd Edition) .But the questions and statements that appear in Chp 8 of Num. properties are different from the respective numbers in OG book.
Could any one please explain this ?
Number properties- Chp 8 -page 106- Q53,63,..Q116.

I can possibly explain! When did you buy your Number Properties guide? The 4th edition came out in the spring, but the 2nd edition of the Quant Official Guide didn't come out until September. If you bought your NP guide before the 2nd edition came out, then the problem numbers refer to the 1st edition, not the 2nd edition.

If that's the case, then click here for a conversion chart: http://www.manhattangmat.com/ogs2-quant.cfm

If not, please let us know, as perhaps there was some kind of printing error!

I'm facing the same problem. I'm using OG 12th Edition and Quant Review 2nd Edition which should match with 4th Edition MR but on page 106 of MR Guide 1 (number properties), problem #53 should be #54, and #63 should be #64, and #75 should be #78, then #78 should be ???.

I hope there aren't more of those :(. The guide was excellent up to this point but got very annoying trying to match (and spoil answers of) some questions :(.

If you are one of our students, you can download and print a copy of the revised OG Problem Sets. Student Center --> Class Resources --> Course Downloads --> "Official Guide Assignments Document"

Hope that helps.
