The number of exhaustive outcomes is 36.
Let E be the event of getting an even number on one die and an odd number on the other. Let the event of getting either both even or both odd then = 18/36 = 1/2
P(E) = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2.

As month begins on Saturday, so 2nd, 9th, 16th, 23rd, 30th days will be Sundays. While 8th and 22nd days are second Saturdays. Thus, there are 7 holidays in all.

Hence, no. of working days = 30 – 7 =23

Last digit for the power of 6 is 6 (always)

Power cycle of 7 is 7, 9, 3, 1.

Now 467/4 gives a remainder of 3

Then the last digit is 73 = 3

Last digit is 6 + 3 = 9.

For ticking 6 times, there are 5 intervals.

Each interval has time duration of 30/5 = 6 secs

At 12 o'clock, there are 11 intervals,
so total time for 11 intervals = 11 x 6 = 66 secs.

Frugal and parsimonious are synonyms of each other and bear the meaning 'being stingy' or 'sparing'. Similarly, joy and ecstasy are related to happiness.

Let the time taken by train be 't' hrs.

Then,

40t = 35t + 1560

40t = 35t + 35/4

t = 7/4 hrs

Therefore, Required length of the total journey d = s x t

= 40 x 7/4

= 70 kms.

Let the speeds of the car, train and bus be 5x, 9x and 4x km/hr respectively.
Average speed = 5x + 9x + 4x/3 = 18x /3 = 6x km/hr.
Also, 6x = 72 => x = 12 km/hr
Therefore, the average speed of the car and train together is = 5x+9x2= 7x = 7 x 12 = 84 km/hr.

Ratio of Milk and water in a vessel A is 4 : 1

Ratio of Milk and water in a vessel B is 3 : 2

Ratio of only milk in vessel A = 4 : 5

Ratio of only milk in vessel B = 3 : 5

Let 'x' be the quantity of milk in vessel C

Now as equal quantities are taken out from both vessels A & B

=> 4/5     :     3/5
               x 
  3/5-x          x - 4/5

=> 35-xx-45 = 11 (equal quantities)

=> x = 7/10

Therefore, quantity of milk in vessel C  = 7

=> Water quantity = 10 - 7 = 3

Hence the ratio of milk & water in vessel 3 is 7 : 3
