So, I''m studying for the GMAT (ugh!) and I come across this question that makes me smile. See if you can solve it for yourself:
The size of diamonds is measured in carats. If the price of a diamond doubles for every 0.5 carats, which of the following is worth the most?
A) one 4-carat diamond
B) fourteen 1-carat diamonds
C) four 2-carat diamonds and eight 1-carat diamonds
D) one 1-carat diamond, two 2-carat diamonds, and three 3-carat diamonds
E) three 1.5-carat diamonds and 3 2.5-carat diamonds
Now you know what I am going through....I was like...the answer should be F) Not enough information to tell! (You assume everything else is equal, i suppose)
