Given when she sells at Rs. 160 for 20 articles, she get 40% loss.

Then, to get 20% profit selling at Rs. 240 for let 'P' articles

=> 1602060=240p120

=> 120 x 160 x P = 20 x 70 x 240

=> P =  15 articles.

Amount of Rs. 100 for 1 year

when compounded half-yearly = Rs.[100*(1+3/100)^2]=Rs.106.09

Effective rate=(106.09-100)%=6.09%

Let the sum be Rs. 100. Then,
S.I. for first 6 months = (100 x 8 x 1) / (100 x 2) = Rs. 4
S.I. for last 6 months = (104 x 8 x 1) / (100 x 2) = Rs. 4.16
So, amount at the end of 1 year = (100 + 4 + 4.16) = Rs. 108.16
Effective rate = (108.16 - 100) = 8.16%.

Let the number of boys = x

From the given data,

=> [21x + 16(18)]/(x+16) = 19

=> 21x - 19x = 19(16) - 16(18)

=> 2x = 16

=> x = 8

Therefore, the number of boys in the class = 8.

The year 2006 is an ordinary year. So, it has 1 odd day.
So, the day on 24th Nov, 2007 will be 1 day beyond the day on 24th Nov, 2006.
But, 24th Nov, 2007 is Thursday.
24 - 10 = 14 days.
Therefore, 2 weeks ago it is same day.
Thus, 10th Nov, 2006 is one day before 10th Nov, 2007 i.e. it is Wednesday.

Let length = 3x metres and breadth = 2x metres.

Then, 2(3x + 2x) = 1600 or x = 160.

Length = 480 m and Breadth = 320 m.Area = (480 x 320) sq.m = 153600 sq.m

Let initially 'X' ticket has been sold.
So now in 2nd week 20% increases, so
=> X x 120/100
In 3rd week 16% increases, so
=> X x (120/100) x (116/100)
In 4th week 20% decrease, so
=> X x (120/100) x (116/100) x (80/100) = 1392
X = 1250.
