It is explicitly given that all the 4 black balls are different, all the 3 red balls are different and all the 5 blue balls are different. Hence this is a case where all are distinct objects.

Initially let's find out the number of ways in which we can select the black balls. Note that at least 1 black ball must be included in each selection.

Hence, we can select 1 black ball from 4 black balls
or 2 black balls from 4 black balls.
or 3 black balls from 4 black balls.
or 4 black balls from 4 black balls.

Hence, number of ways in which we can select the black balls

= 4C1 + 4C2 + 4C3 + 4C4
= 24-1 ........(A)

Now let's find out the number of ways in which we can select the red balls. Note that at least 1 red ball must be included in each selection.

Hence, we can select 1 red ball from 3 red balls
or 2 red balls from 3 red balls
or 3 red balls from 3 red balls

Hence, number of ways in which we can select the red balls
= 3C1 + 3C2 + 3C3
=23-1........(B)

Hence, we can select 0 blue ball from 5 blue balls (i.e, do not select any blue ball. In this case, only black and red balls will be there)
or 1 blue ball from 5 blue balls
or 2 blue balls from 5 blue balls
or 3 blue balls from 5 blue balls
or 4 blue balls from 5 blue balls
or 5 blue balls from 5 blue balls.

Hence, number of ways in which we can select the blue balls
= 5C0 + 5C1 + 5C2 + … + 5C5
= 25..............(C)

From (A), (B) and (C), required number of ways
=  2524-123-1

The series follows the following pattern

5 X 5 – 5 = 20

20 X 4 – 4 = 76

76 X 3 – 3 = 225

225 X 2 – 2 = 448

Hence, the term 225 denoted by (d) completes the series

Let the required height of the building be x meter

More shadow length, More height(direct proportion)

Hence we can write as

(shadow length) 40.25 : 28.75 :: 17.5 : x
⇒ 40.25 × x = 28.75 × 17.5
⇒ x = 28.75 × 17.5/40.25
= 2875 × 175/40250
= 2875 × 7/1610
= 2875/230
= 575/46
= 12.5 cm

According to the question, after the position of the first and third digit interchanged new numbers are
789, 415, 856, 784, 404, 962

962, 856, 789, 784, 404, 415
Here the second lowest number is 404 and the last digit of it is '4'.
