The given series follows a logic that

11 x 12, 12 x 13, 13 x 14, 14 x 15, 15 x 16,...

So the missing number is 13 x 14 = 182

15 Aug, 1947 = (1946 years + Period from 1.1.1947 to 15.8.1947)

Odd days in 1600 years = 0 

Odd days in 300 years = 1

46 years = (35 ordinary years + 11 leap years) = (35 x 1 + 11 x 2)= 57 (8 weeks + 1 day) = 1 odd day 

Jan.   Feb.   Mar.   Apr.   May.   Jun.   Jul.   Aug 

( 31 + 28 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 15 ) = 227 days = (32 weeks + 3 days) = 3 odd days.

Total number of odd days = (0 + 1 + 1 + 3) = 5 odd days. 

Hence, as the number of odd days = 5 , given day is Friday.

From the given statements A, B & C

Let the present age of Teja = P

Raju present age = P + 4

Sita's present age = 2(P + 4)

Average of ages of Sita & Teja = 19

=> (2P + 8 + P)/2 = 19

= 3P + 8 = 38

=> P = 30/3 = 10

Hence, the present age of Teja = P = 10 yrs.

Therefore, by using all the three statements A, B & C we can find the age of Teja.

A person, One who possesses many talents is called a Versatile.

4 eyes.

Here in the question, it is asked how many Eyes We have so that means here the person who has asked the question is also including the person who is suppose to give the answer.

Given nuber series is 15, 30, ? , 40, 8, 48 

Here the number series follows a pattern that

15

15 x 2 = 30

30 ÷ 3 = 10

10 x 4 = 40

40 ÷ 5 = 8

8 x 6 = 48

Hence, the missing number in the series is 10.

Let A, B, C be the respective events of solving the problem and A , B, C be the respective events of not solving the problem. Then A, B, C are independent event

∴A, B, C are independent events

Now,  P(A) = 1/2 , P(B) = 1/3 and P(C)=1/4

 PA=12, PB=23, PC= 34

∴ P( none  solves the problem) = P(not A) and (not B) and (not C)  

                  = PA∩B∩C 

                  = PAPBPC         ∵ A, B, C are Independent                       

                  =  12×23×34  

                  = 14  

Hence, P(the problem will be solved) = 1 - P(none solves the problem) 

                = 1-14= 3/4

25% of 25% means

25/100 of 25/100

i.e, 1/4 of 1/4

or in other words 1/4 x 1/4=1/16

Hence, the answer is 1/16 = 0.0625.
