Answer to Q109

A man had 10⅔kg of onions and sold ⅔ of it. How much does he have left?

If 10kg is your answer, you are so wrong. The question didn't say he sold ⅔kg of the onions, he sold ⅔ of the entire onions.

So how much is ⅔ of 10⅔:
10⅔ = ³²⁄₃
⅔ of that
³²⁄₃ x ⅔
64 ÷ 9
= 7⅑

But wait, that's not what the question asked, the question was how much he had left, not how much he sold.

So how much he had left will be (10⅔ - 7⅑) or simply (⅓ of 10⅔) [you will arrive at the same answer either way].
so, ⅓ of 10⅔:
³²⁄₃ x ⅓
32 ÷ 9
= 3⁵⁄₉

Answer: 3⁵⁄₉

I spotted the error in the options after several people have voted so I decided to leave it in because whoever got the correct answer should know it was just an error.

Should You Buy Bitcoin?

In general, many financial experts support their clients’ desire to buy cryptocurrency, but they don’t recommend it unless clients express interest. “The biggest concern for us is if someone wants to invest in crypto and the investment they choose doesn’t do well, and then all of a sudden they can’t send their kids to college,” says Ian Harvey, a certified financial planner (CFP) in New York City. “Then it wasn’t worth the risk.” The speculative nature of cryptocurrency leads some planners to recommend it for clients’ “side” investments. “Some call it a Vegas account,” says Scott Hammel, a CFP in Dallas. “Let’s keep this away from our real long-term perspective, make sure it doesn’t become too large a portion of your portfolio.” In a very real sense, Bitcoin is like a single stock, and advisors wouldn’t recommend putting a sizable part of your portfolio into any one company. At most, planners suggest putting no more than 1% to 10% into Bitcoin if you’re passionate about it. “If it was one stock, you would never allocate any significant portion of your portfolio to it,” Hammel says.

Traders also expressed uncertainty about the situation with China Evergrande, as the indebted property company has not provided clarification about a key interest payment.In economic news, the Commerce Department reported an unexpected increase in U.S. new home sales in August.Crude oil prices climbed Friday and front-month WTI oil futures contracts saw gains for a fifth straight week amid tighter supplies.
