There are total 131 letters out of which 7 are consonants and 6 are vowels. Also ther are 2L's , 2N's, 2A's and 2I's.

If all the consonants are together then the numberof arrangements = $\frac{7!}{2!}$ x 1/2! .

But the 7 consonants can be arranged themselves in $\frac{7!}{2!}$ x 1/2! ways.

Hence the required number of ways = ${(\frac{7!}{2! 2!})}^{2}$ = 1587600

A) 1.5 lakh	B) 1.1 lakh
C) 1.2 lakh	D) 1.65 lakh

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1.1 lakh

Explanation:

Total cost of 4 cars = 1+2 = 3 lakh

Total S.P of 4 cars = 3 x 1.5 = 4.5 lakh ( $S i n c e S . P = \frac{(100 + G a i n %)}{100} x C . P$ )

S.P of 1 car = 1.2 lakh

S.P of rest 3 cars = 4.5 - 1.2 = 3.3 lakh

Average S.P of all the 3 cars = 1.1 lakh

Q:

A, B and C invest in the ratio of 3 : 4: 5. The percentage of return on their investments are in the ratio of 6 : 5 : 4. Find the total earnings, If B earns Rs. 250 more than A :

A) Rs. 6000	B) Rs. 7250
C) Rs. 5000	D) None of these

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 7250

Explanation:

A B C

investment 3x 4x 5x

Rate of return 6y% 5y% 4y%

Return $\frac{18 x y}{100} \frac{20 x y}{100} \frac{20 x y}{100}$

Total = (18+20+20) = $\frac{58 x y}{100}$

B's earnings - A's earnings = $\frac{2 x y}{100}$ = 250

Total earning = $\frac{58 x y}{100}$ = 7250
