           Wine                         Water

            8L                              32L

            1                :               4

           20 %                           80% (original ratio)

           30 %                           70% (required ratio)

In  ths case, the percentage of water being reduced when the mixture is being replaced with wine.

so the ratio of left quantity to the initial quantity is 7:8

Therefore , 78=1-K40

=> K = 5 Lit

Let the speeds of two trains be 7X and 8X km/hr.

8x = 400/4

=> x= 12.5 km/hrX=4004=>X=12.5Km/hr

So speed of first train is 12.5*7 = 87.5 km/hr

Let Rs.x be the amount that the elder daughter got at the time of the will. Therefore, the younger daughter got (3,500,000 - x).

The elder daughter’s money earns interest for (21 - 16) = 5 years @ 10% p.a simple interest.

The younger daughter’s money earns interest for (21 - 8.5) = 12.5 years @ 10% p.a simple interest.

As the sum of money that each of the daughters get when they are 21 is the same,

 x+5*10*x100=3,500,000-x+12.5*10*3,500,000-x100

 x+50x=3,500,000-x+125100*3,500,000-125x100

 2x+50x100+125x100=3,500,000*1+54

 200x+50x+125x100=94*3,500,000

 =>x=2,100,000=21 lakhs

Age of the teacher = (37 * 15 - 36 * 14) years = 51 years.

When the sheet in fig. (A) is folded, then one of the faces of the cube formed will be of the form   and this face will lie opposite the face bearing a square. Also, one of the blank faces lies opposite another blank face and the third blank face lies opposite the face bearing an '=' sign. Clearly, all the three blank faces cannot appear adjacent to each other. So, the cube shown in fig. (2) which has all the three blank faces adjacent to each other cannot be formed. Hence, only the cubes shown in figures A, C and D can be formed.
