Q:

If sum of three consecutive numbers is 42 . What will the sum of the digits of middle number .

Answer

Let the numbers be x, x+1, x+2 


Then x + x+1 + x+2 = 42


           =>  3x + 3 = 42


           => 3x = 39 


          =>  x = 13


 


The numbers would be 13, 14, 15 


Therefore, Sum of the digits of middle number = 1+4 = 5

Q:

Three graziers A,B and C rent a piece of pasture for a month. A puts in 27 cattle for 19 days, B 21 for 17 days and C 24 for 23 days. If at the end of the month the rent amount to Rs.237, how much ought to be paid by each.

Answer

A's cattle = 27 x 19 = 513


B's cattle = 21 x 17 = 357


C's cattle = 24 x 23 = 552


Ratio of cattle = 513 : 357 : 552


                    = 171 : 119 : 184


 


payment to be made by A = \inline 237\times \frac{171}{474}


                                     = Rs.85.50


payment to be made by B = \inline 237\times \frac{119}{474}


                                     = Rs.59.50


payment to be made by C = \inline 237\times \frac{184}{474}


                                     = Rs.92
