Let the sum be Rs.x. Then, 

 x1+101002-x=1155

⇒x11102-1=1155

=> x =5500

sum = Rs. 5500.

So, S.I = Rs. 5500×5×4100 = 1100

From the assumption and trial and error method,

last three digits sum must leave the same digit as the answer. It is possible only if the answer must be units digit number leaving tens digit as carry.

And the possible 3rd digit is 5. Since 5 + 5 + 5 = 15 

Now, 2nd step is  1 + x + x + x = 5

=> 3x = 4

It is possible with x = 8. 8 + 8 + 8 + 1 = 25 leaving 2 as carry. 

Now, 3rd step is 2 + x + x + x = 5 => x = 1

Hence, the three dgits are 1, 8, 5.

185 + 185 + 185 = 555.

Speed = 108 km/hr
enter a tunnel,, means that the train covers a distance equal to its own length
so (108 x 5/18) = x/4 where x= length of train
hence x = 120 mtrs
to pass completely train has to travel a distance = (x + tunnel length) that is 1120 mtrs.
so (1120/t) = (108x5/18)
t = 37.33 sec

We know that 1 yard = 3 feet. 

A yardstick which is used for measurement has 3 feet long but it cannot walk.

Given the salaries are in the ratio of 4 : 5 : 6

Now the salaries are increased by 50%, 60% and 50% respectively

The New ratio of salaries will be

4 x (150/100) : 5 x (160/100) : 6 x (150/100)

= 6 : 8 : 9

The new ratio of salaries of Akhil, Arun and Karthik is 9 : 8 : 6

The first person shakes hands with 22 different people, the second person also shakes hands with 22 different people, but one of those handshakes was counted in the 22 for the first person, so the second person actually shakes hands with 21 new people. The third person, 20 people, and so on...
So,
22 + 21 + 20 + 19 + 18 + 17 + 16 + 15 + 14 + 13 + 12 + 11 + 10 + 9 + 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1
= n(n+1)/2 = 22 x 23 /2 = 11 x 23 = 253.
