MATH FORMULASThe most powerful EMPOWER tactic for the Quantitative section of the GMATWHY Learn GMAT Math Formulas?1. Including Geometry, more than half the questions in the Quant section involve a specific math formula (or more than1), so knowing the formulas is a must to solving the problem.2. Math formulas can be used to answer many different versions of the same question.3. TRIAGE can become easier in some cases by using the formula to estimate the approximate answer to a question.Average Formulas:Average Interest Formulas:Simple Interest: Principal x (1 Rate x Time)Compound Interest:P Principle investment, r interest rate, t time in yearsDistance Formula:Distance Rate x TimeCombined Rate:For objects traveling toward each other:Distance Between (Rates Added) x (Time to meet)EMPOWERgmat SectionQUANTQuestion TypePS/DSCategoryMATHFORMULASNOTE: This packet is to be used in conjunction with the Modules in yourEmpower GMAT Course.
