The researchers at IIT Kharagpur have developed a new technology to manufacture cheaper, quicker and pollution-free bio-fuel. The ‘soil-to-soil’ manufacturing technology developed at the P K Sinha Centre for bio-energy at IIT-KGP is in the process of being patented. The technique will ensure relatively quicker production of bio-fuel and the process is completely green. The green leafy part of corn and sugarcane plants, the waste part of paddy straw, bamboo, banana plant, pineapple and cotton plants, kans grass (kassh phool), castor plant and even non-edible weeds that grow in dry and waste land and a mix of all has been used by IIT-KGP to produce bio fuel. The project is funded by the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, Department of Science and Technology and the Ministry of Human Resource Development.

Cost of 4 mangoes = Rs. 6 

Cost of 1 mango = Rs. 6/4 = Rs. 1.5

Now, Selling Price of 4 mangoes = Rs. 4

Selling Price of 1 mango = Rs. 4/4 = Rs. 1.0

• We observe that, S.P < C.P

Hence, the shopkeeper incurs a loss.

Required loss% = loss/C.P x 100

Loss = 1.5 - 1 = 0.5

C.P = 1.5

Loss% = (0.5/1.5) x 100

 = (5/15) x 100

 = 1/3 x 100

 = 100/3

 = 33.333%.

Given that, a woman has seven children. Half of them are boys. 

Half of 7 is 3.5 which is not possible. And it is possible in only one way that all the children must be boys. Then half of them are boys.

As A1 speaks always after A2, they can speak only in  1st  to 9th places and 

A2 can speak in 2nd to 10 the places only when A1 speaks in 1st place 

A2 can speak in 9 places the remaining 

 A3, A4, A5,...A10  has no restriction. So, they can speak in 9.8! ways. i.e

when A2 speaks in the first place, the number of ways they can speak is 9.8!.

When A2 speaks in second place, the number of ways they can speak is  8.8!.

When A2 speaks in third place, the number of ways they can speak is  7.8!. When A2 speaks in the ninth place, the number of ways they can speak is 1.8!

Therefore,Total Number of ways they can  speak = (9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1) 8! = 92(9+1)8! = 10!/2
