Arakan yoma is the extension of the himalayas located in Myanmar. The Arakan Mountains are also known as the Rakhine Mountains.

These are a mountain range in western Myanmar, between the coast of Rakhine State and the Central Myanmar Basin, in which the Irrawaddy River flows.

After 5 mins ..... 3 persons will get rumour
After 10 mins .... 3x2 + 3 = 9 = 32 persons will get
after 15 =5x3 min ......9x2 + 9 =27 = 33 persons will get news.
.
.
after 5x6 mins ... 36 = 729 persons will get news.

Therefore, time taken to spread the rumour to 729 persons is 30 minutes.

Ratio of times taken by P & Q = 100 : 130 = 10:13

Let Q takes x days to do the work

Then, 10:13 :: 23:x

=> x = 23x13/10

=> x = 299/10

P's 1 day's work = 1/23

Q's 1 day's work = 10/299

(P+Q)'s 1 day's work = (1/23 + 10/299) = 23/299 = 1/13

Hence, P & Q together can complete the work in 13 days.

The Surface tension pulls the surface of the drop equally at all points thus produces the spherical shape having the minimum surface area. This surface tension is the "skin" of a body of water that makes the molecules stick together.

Square is 2-dimensional 4 sided figure Whereas Cube is 3-dimensional figure which looks like Square.

Similarly, Triangle is 2-dimensional 3 sided figure Whereas Pyramid is 3-dimensional figure which looks like Triangle.

Let the number of sides be n. 

The number of diagonals is given by ⁿC₂ - n  

^{Therefore, n}C₂ - n = 44, n>0 

ⁿC₂ - n = 44

n² - 3n - 88 = 0 

n² -11n + 8n - 88 = 0  

As n>0, n will not be -8. Therefore, n=11.

(P+Q)'s 1 day work = 1/24

P's 1 day work = 1/32

=> Q's 1 day work = 1/24 - 1/32 = 1/96

Work done by (P+Q) in 8 days = 8/24 = 1/3

Remainining work = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3

Time taken by Q to complete the remaining work = 2/3 x 96 = 64 days.

Since S.P. = 5 (M.P. - S.P.) => 5 M.P. = 6 S.P.
M.P. = (6/5) S.P.
Since the percentage discount = Percentage profit,
65S.P - S.P65S.P×100 = S.P -C.PC.P×100
Therefore, 1/6 = (S.P/C.P) – 1 => S.P = (7/6) C.P
M.P = 6/5 S.P = 6/5 x 7/6 C.P = 7/5 C.P
Therefore, Ratio of discount to C.P
= (M.P – S.P)/C.P = [{(7/5)C.P - (7/6)C.P} / C.P.]
= 7/30

Therefore, the ratio is 7 : 30
