Re: GMAT Math Formulas

As per your concern I will get the list of GMAT Math formulas so that you can get idea and prepare easily.

Here are the formulas
Algebra Formulas
Exponential Equations
xn*xm = xn + m
(xn)/(xm) = x n - m
(x/y)n = (xn)/(yn)
xn*yn = (xy)n
(xy)z = xyz
x-n = 1/(xn)
1n = 1
x0 = 1
0n = 0, except 00 = 1 or undefined
FV = CV(1 + g)T

Interest
Simple Interest = P*r*t
P = starting principle; r = annual interest rate; t = number of years
Annual Compound Interest = P(1+r)t
Compound Interest = P(1 + r/x)xt x = number of times the interest compounds over the year

Other
Distance = Rate*Time
Wage = Rate*Time

Arithmetic Formulas
Combinatorics
Combinations:nCk = n!/((n-k)k!)!
Permutations:nPk = n!/(n-k)!
Circular: (n-1)!
k = number of objects selected from a pile of n objects
n = total number of objects from which k objects can be selected

Fractions
(a/b)/(c/d) = (a/b) * (d/c)

Percents
Percent Change, as a decimal = (New - Old)/Old
N = (1 + G)O; N = New Value, 0 = Old Value, G = Growth Rate as decimal

Probability
Probability that event E occurs = P(E) = (Number of outcomes in E) / (Total number of possible outcomes)
P(not E) = 1 - P(E)
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F) - P(E and F)
P(E and F) = P(E)P(F)

Number Properties
(Odd)(Even) = Even
(Odd)(Odd) = Odd
(Even)(Even) = Even

(Odd) ± (Even) = Odd
(Odd) ± (Odd) = Even
(Even) ± (Even) = Even

(Positive)(Positive) = Positive
(Positive)(Negative) = Negative
(Negative)(Negative) = Positive
(Positive)/(Negative) = Negative
(Positive)/(Positive) = Positive
(Negative)/(Negative) = Positive

Statistics
Average (Arithmetic Mean): (sum of all numbers)/(number of numbers)
Median: the middle number (or average of the two middle numbers if there are an even number of figures) when all values are arranged in ascending order
Mode: the mos frequently occuring value in a dataset

Geometry Formulas
Angles
Sum of Interior Angles of Polygon = (n-2)(180)
n = number of sides of a polygon
Central Angle = 2(Inscribed Angle)

Area
Square: A = a2
Rectangle: A = lw
Parallelogram: A = bh
Trapezoid: A = .5(a+c)h, where a and c are the lengths of the parallel sides

Circles
π = pi = 3.1415
Area: A = πr2
Circumference: C = 2πr
Central Angle = 2(Inscribed Angle)
Area of Sector = (x/360)πr2

Perimeter
Square: P = 4l
Rectangle: P = 2w + 2l
Parallelogram: P = 2b + 2a, where a and b are the lengths of the non-parallel sides
Circle: P = 2πr

Triangles
Area: A = .5bh
Pythagorean Theorem: A2 + B2 = C2 where A = one leg, B = the other leg, C = hypotenuse

Volume
Cube: V = a3 where a is the length of a side
Rectangular Solid: V = hwl
Cylinder: V = πr2h
