Gitanjali Rao, an 11-year-old Indian-American schoolgirl, was named as "America’s top young scientist" for inventing a cost-effective, quick lead-contamination detector in water. The seventh-grade student was inspired by the large-scale lead contamination in water in Flint, Michigan, that came to light recently.

Let the required number be 'p'

We know, sum of angles in a triangle are 180 deg

According to given data,

p - p/7 = 180

7p - p = 180 x 7

=> 6p = 1260

=> p = 1260/6 = 210

If the barometer rises, it indicates that good or fair weather is coming and if the falling barometer reading indicates that bad or foul weather is coming. Usually bad weather approaches from the west direction.

Let the required number be 'p'.

From the given data,

p + 12 = 160 x 1/p

=> p + 12 = 160/p

=> p(p + 12) = 160

=> P^2 + 12p - 160 = 0

=> p^2 + 20p - 8p - 160 = 0

=> P(p + 20) - 8(p + 20) = 0

=> (p + 20)(p - 8) = 0

=> p = -20 or p = 8

As, given the number is a natural number, so it can't be negative.

Hence, the required number p = 8.

Let workdone 1 boy in 1 day be b

and that of 1 girl be g

From the given data,

4(5b + 3g) = 23

20b + 12g = 23 .......(a)

2(3b + 2g) = 7

6b + 4g = 7 ........(b)

Solving (a) & (b), we get

b = 1, g = 1/4

Let number og girls required be 'p'

6(7 x 1 + p x 1/4) = 45

=> p = 2.

Hence, number of girls required = 2
