GMAT数学中一些难懂的语法表达问题

阿狼

In a certain flower shop, which stocks four types of flowers, there are 1/3 as many violets as carnations, and 1/2 as many tulips as violets. If there are equal numbers of roses and tulips, what percent of the flowers in the shop are carnations?
我想问的是there are 1/3 as many violets as carnations 是说1/3violets=carnations, 还是说violets=1/3carnations?

对于前面所说过的程序出三个质数的倍数,因为已经说了是由三个质数组成的,就不会出现负数了.
不知道这样说对不对.

我问过GRE牛人--“就是V=1/3C”。问问native speaker吧。

阿狼

根据答案倒推的话，smile1031是对的，就是V=1/3C。
但我记得有道逻辑题，问的是关于某个国家今年和去年生产的纸张数量的比较。其中有个条件说的是twice as much paper produced this year as that produced last year.（大意如此）
但根据答案中的解释来看的话是the amount of paper produced last year is twice the amount of paper produced this year啊~~~
郁闷啊郁闷~~~这到底是怎么回事啊？

"there are 1/3 as many violets as carnations" means : V=1/3C

能确定吗？

smile1031

"there are 1/3 as many violets as carnations" means : V=1/3C

这个语法问题，很多人都不能确定。你能不能给出答案，倒推一下。

阿狼

还有题目1中的那个语法表达问题，谁能告诉我啊~~~~~~~

阿狼

谢谢Louisa_xy了。
但是2的题干中明明说A jewelry dealer initially offered a bracelet for sale at an asking price 啊~~~
那不就是The jewelry dealer sold the bracelet for the asking price 吗？

3.大盒子的体积=25*42*60
  小盒子的体积=5*6*7
  相除=300
  （是不是你想得复杂了？）
4.  2，3，5的公倍数肯定是正的，怎么会是负数呢？

2.asking price 不是实际售价
