GRE Quantitative Reasoning QUESTION #8164
Question 1

If $2x = 3y = 4z = 20$, what is the value of $12xyz$?

  • $16{,}000$
  • $8{,}000$
  • $4{,}000$✔️
  • $800$
Correct Answer Explanation

From $2x = 20$: $x = 10$.

From $3y = 20$: $y = \dfrac{20}{3}$.

From $4z = 20$: $z = 5$.

Now compute $12xyz$:

$12 \times 10 \times \dfrac{20}{3} \times 5 = 12 \times \dfrac{1000}{3} = \dfrac{12000}{3} = 4{,}000$
