From the given data,

When the price of rice is decreased by 10%, the value of Rs. 270 would become

270 x 100/90 = 300

Now, the value 270 becomes 300

And given, the girl could buy 1 kg extra for that value

Change in value = 300 - 270 = Rs. 30

Therefore, 1 kg extra rice she can get for Rs. 30

=> The original price of rice = Rs. 30/kg.

As she gets only 9 kgs for Rs. 270 before 10% discount, now after discount she gets 10 kgs instead of 9 kgs for Rs. 270.

The given series follows,

2

2 x 2 = 4

4 x 3 = 12

12 x 4 = 48

48 x 5 = 240.

Here by trial and error method, we can obseve that

404404 = 404 x 1001; 415415 = 415 x 1001, etc.

So, any number of this form is divisible by 1001.

42 = 72 - 7

 92 - 9 = 72

 112 - 11 = 110

 122 + 8 = 152

Except 152, others show the same trend.

The pattern in the given series is +4, +9, +16, +25, ... i.e. 22,32,42,52...

The next number is 284+25 = 309.

Let 'B' be the nuber of bricks.

=> 10 x 4/100 x 5 x 90/100 = 25/100 x 15/100 x 8/100 x B

=> 10 x 20 x 90 = 15 x 2 x B

=> B = 6000
