Q:

What is the four-digit number in which the first digit is 1/3 of the second,the third is the sum of the first and second, and the last is three times the second ?

Answer

It is given that the first digit is 1/3 of the second. There are 3 such possibilities


1)1 and 3
2)2 and 6
3)3 and 9
Now, the third digit is the sum of the first and second digits.
1)1 + 3 = 4
2)2 + 6 = 8
3)3 + 9 = 12
It is clear that option 3 is not possible. So we are left with only two options. Also, the last digit is three times the second, which rules out the second option.


Hence, the answer is 1349.

Q:

“Neither a borrower nor a lender be, for loan oft loses both itself and friend.”

What is the meaning of the given phrase?

Answer

It is said by Lord Polonius.



It means do not lend or borrow money from a friend, because if you do so, you will lose both your friend and your money. If you lend, he will avoid paying back, and if you borrow you will fall out of your savings, as you turn into a spendthrift, and face humiliation.
