You're confusing the spine with the binding. The binding comprises the cover and spine, as well as the endsheet, the hinge, and the headband, all of which are inside the book. Educate yourself, sir.Sure. Or, an out of the box thinker might reason: a book is immediately inside a library, a binding is immediately inside a book, hence "binding". Or, thinking more literally: each library has lots of books, each book has lots of copies, hence "copies". Or thinking in terms of a sequence: a library holds a book, a book holds the binding, the binding holds the pages, hence "binding" again.What's the answer to #3? Any way I slice it, I get 1.8, which isn't an answer.Seems no one can answer why IQ test are considered racist. Here are a few sample questions, explain why they would be considered racist.
1. Rearrange the following letters to make a word and choose the category in which it fits.
RAPETEKA
A. city
B. fruit
C. bird
D. vegetable
2. Find the answer that best completes the analogy
people : democracy :: wealthy :
A. oligarchy
B. oligopoly
C. plutocracy
D. timocracy
E. autocracy
3. Select the number that best completes the analogy
10 : 6 :: 3 : ?
A. 2
B. 1
C. -1
D. 12
E. 4
4. Which number should come next in the series
1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

6. Library is to book as book is to

Question #6 is a wash too. Both A and C are reasonable answers.
Heaven help you if this is how your schools actually measure people's intelligence.![]()
Answer is 1
Answer to 6 is "page"
Libraries contain books, books contain pages.
It's a bloody terrible question. It actually penalizes creative or nonlinear thinking.
Question #3 is for crap too. I'm sure they want people to answer "2", since this is the closest to 1.8, but I call BS on "the number that best completes the analogy". The number that "best completes the analogy" in any legitimate mathematical context is the sole correct answer, which is nowhere to be found. There's no fungible "best completes" in context-free mathematics, and a resourceful student could just as easily interpret the ratios in some context that does make sense.
The binding is at the back of the book not inside the book.
You are too stupid for words.
