l=5.5m w=3.75m
area of the floor = 5.5 x 3.75 = 20.625 sq m
cost of paving = 800 x 20.625 = Rs. 16500

Let x and y be the length and breadth of the rectangle respectively.
Then, x - 4 = y + 3 or x - y = 7 ----(i)
Area of the rectangle =xy; Area of the square = (x - 4) (y + 3)
(x - 4) (y + 3) =xy <=> 3x - 4y = 12 ----(ii)
Solving (i) and (ii), we get x = 16 and y = 9.
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 (x + y) = [2 (16 + 9)] cm = 50 cm.

Loss%= (common gain or loss % / 10)² = (10/10)² % = 1%.

The watch gains 5 seconds in 3 minutes = 100 seconds in 1 hour.

From 8 AM to 10 PM on the same day, time passed is 14 hours.

In 14 hours, the watch would have gained 1400 seconds or 23 minutes 20 seconds.

So, when the correct time is 10 PM, the watch would show 10 : 23 : 20 PM

NOTE :

Repetition of leap year ===> Add +28 to the Given Year.

Repetition of non leap year

Step 1 : Add +11 to the Given Year. If Result is a leap year, Go to step 2.

Step 2:  Add +6 to the Given Year.

Solution : 

Given Year is 2005, Which is a non leap year.

Step 1 : Add +11 to the given year (i.e 2005 + 11) = 2016, Which is a leap year. 

Step 2 : Add +6 to the given year (i.e 2005 + 6) = 2011

Therfore, The calendar for the year 2005 will be same for the year 2011

Average money received by each = 118/50 = Rs. 2.36 

 Therefore, Ratio of No.of boys and girls = 56 : 24 = 7 : 3

 Therefore, Number of boys = 50 x (7/10) = 35

 Number of girls = 50 - 35 = 15

Total Population = 728400

Migrants = 35 % of 728400  =  254940

local population = (728400 - 254940) = 473460.

Rural migrants = 20% of 254940 = 50988

Urban migrants = (254940 - 50988) = 203952

Female population = 48% of 473460 + 30% of 50988 + 40% of 203952 = 324138
