DIRECTIONS
In this booklet, a number of problems are stated in the form of flow-charts.
1. A flow-chart is simply a "road map" by which you must find your way from one town to
the next, and obey every instruction you come to.
2. Always follow the "road" downward, or to the right, unless an arrow indicates a different
direction, or unless an instruction requires you to do otherwise.
3. When you come to a fork in the "road" there will be a question for you to answer; match
your answer with the "signposts" on the branches leading out of the fork, and you will
know which way to go.
4. When you are told to put a number into a box, it is understood that whatever number was
previously in that box has just been erased.
6. Mark up the flow-charts in any way you feel will help you. Use the margins, or the blank
left-hand pages, for your "scratch" work. Do all your work in this booklet.
7. When you are finished, copy your answers into the spaces on this cover. Use extreme
care in doing so, since this copy of your answers will be used in scoring the test.

In these problems, you will be told exactly what each flow-chart is to accomplish,
and you must decide what number must be in a specified box, in order that some-
one following the flow-chart will do the required job— no more and no less.

READ THESE DIRECTIONS
In the following problems, you are told something about the result, and you must
determine what the contents of the boxes must have been, in order to obtain
that result.
In these problems, the expression (number in box X) is abbreviated as (X).
For example: "Is (4) greater than (7)?"
means "Is (number in box 4) greater than (number in box 7)?"
In each of the following problems, no two boxes contain the same number.
