Quarter of Kg means 250 gm

Less weight, less price (Direct Proportion)

So,

250 : 200 :: 60 : x => x = 48

So 200 gm will cost 48 paise.

Let the present ages of the mother and daughter be 2x and x years respectively.
Then, (2x - 18) = 3(x - 18) => x = 36
Required sum = (2x + x) = 108 years.

We know, 

S.I = PTR/100 where P = principal amount, T = time, R = rate of interest

Here in the given data,

Interest for two years S.I = 924 - 812 = Rs. 112

Now, Principal amount P = 812 - 112 = Rs. 700 

Now,

R = S.I x 100/PT

R = 112 x 100/700 x 2

R = 11200/1400

R = 8%

Hence, the rate of interest R = 8%.

We know that, 

The area of a triangle with two sides given and included angle

A = 1/2 x product of sides x Sin(angle) 

Here the two sides are 8 & 12

Angle = 150

Area = 1/2 x 8 x 12 x sin150

Sin(150) = sin(90+60) = cos(60) = 1/2

A = 48 x 1/2 = 24

Area of the given triangle = 24 sq units.

A rowboat can be put into motion by using oar. Similaarly, a skateboard can be put into motion by using foot.

The other options like walk and running are not objects to be in motion. And loafers are something worn on foot.

Hence, Oar : Rowboat :: Foot : Skateboard.

Wimbledon Tournament in the city London, is the prestigious and the oldest tournament in the world.

Pathogenic bacteria cause the greatest harm in the food industry.

Let the side of the square be 's' cm

length of rectangle = (s+5) cm

breadth of rectangle = (s-3)cm

(s+5) (s-3) = 

s2 - 5s - 3s - 15 = s2 

2s = 15

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(L+B) = 2(s+5 + s–3) = 2(2s + 2)

= 2(15 + 2) = 34 cm
