Number/Percent problems

[gmatalongthewatchtower]

Team,
I am relatively weak in Percent/Number problems. I went through the 9 examples in Powerscore LR book. I searched through the Internet to find a few examples that could use to practice. Can you please let me know a few problems based totally on the concept of Numbers, PErcentages and/or Numbers with PErcentages, or may be some good tricky problems that you remember off the top of your head.

Thanks

Well, not all of these will exactly fit your criteria, but here's a list of some "mathy" LR problems.

Let me know if you have questions on any of them (although you should first check the the forum for any individual question to see if there's already an explanation)

Have fun!

Patrick,
I am done with above problems. Can you please give me some more problems? I seriously need to practice some numbers/percent problems. The prep tests that I have are all "picturized", meaning I cannot search through them. If you know any source or a book that covers such problems, I will buy it. Please advise. I have already gone trhough Powerscore's guide on # and %.


Thanks
