@varuniyer
f(2)f(1/2)=f(1)
f(2)f(1)=f(2), so f(1)=1
thus f(1/2)=1/4

Re: CAT 08: Quant section Discussion - 16-11-2008, 03:31 PM

integers between 999 and not greater than 4000 will be....
1*4*5*5*5 (*multiply) = 500
- - - - - -

minus.....
1*1*5*5*5............... 125 (since no number greater then 4000 will be excepted)

+ 1(4000 exception)

so the answer is 500-125+1=376....(i did 375 )
