16 June, 1993 = (1992 years + Period from 1.1.1993 to 16.6.1993)

Odd days in 1600 years = 0

Odd days in 300 years = 1

92 years = (69 ordinary years + 23 leap year) = (69 x 1 + 23 x 2)= 3 odd days

Jan. Feb. March April May June

(31 + 28 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 16 ) = 167 days

167 days = (23 weeks + 6 days) =6 odd days.

Total number of odd days = (0 + 1 + 3 + 6) = 3 odd days.

Given day is Wednesday.

Next train comes at 17:00 hrs.
So, last train will be = 17:00hrs - 2:30hrs
= 14:30hrs
Announcement made after 37 min of the last train.
S0, 14:30hrs + 00:37 min
= 15:07 hrs.

Average speed = total distance / total time

Total distance covered = 6 miles; total time = 45 minutes = 0.75 hours

Average speed = 6/ 0.75 = 8 miles/hour

30 + (.0825 x 30) + (15% x 30)

Now

=> 0.0825 x 30 = 2.475 -----(1)

=> 15% of 30 = 450/100 = 4.5 -----(2) 

Hence, from (1) & (2)

30 + (.0825 x 30) + (15% x 30)

= 30 + 2.475 + 4.5

30 + (.0825 x 30) + (15% x 30) = 36.975.

As given in the question, Marked price is 25% more than the Cost price.

=> C.P of the article = 34 x 400 = 300

Now, 

Let the original S.P of the article be Rs. P

Now the new S.P = P + 16.666 +13.333300 x P

=> S.P = 7P6

According to the question,

7P6 - 300 = 2P - 300

=> 5P = 1800

=> P = Rs. 360

Hence, the increased S.P = 360 x 7/6 = Rs. 420.
