Ratio of initial investments = 1/2 : 1/3 : 1/4 = 6 : 4 : 3.

Let their initial investments be 6x, 2x and 3x respectively.

A : B : C = (6x * 2 + 3x * 10) : (4x * 12) : (3x * 12) = 42 : 48 : 36 = 7 : 8 : 6.

B's share =  Rs. (378 * 8/21) = Rs. 144.

The Correct Sequence is:

Rain    Sun    Rainbow    Child    Happy

   2          3           1                5           4

The series given follow the pattern

+2, +2+4, +2+4+6, +2+4+6+8, +2+4+6+8+10,...

Here ? = 7 + 2 + 4 = 13.

Let’s break it down. The product of their ages is 72. So what are the possible choices?

2, 2, 18 – sum(2, 2, 18) = 22
2, 4, 9 – sum(2, 4, 9) = 15
2, 6, 6 – sum(2, 6, 6) = 14
2, 3, 12 – sum(2, 3, 12) = 17
3, 4, 6 – sum(3, 4, 6) = 13
3, 3, 8 – sum(3, 3, 8 ) = 14
1, 8, 9 – sum(1,8,9) = 18
1, 3, 24 – sum(1, 3, 24) = 28
1, 4, 18 – sum(1, 4, 18) = 23
1, 2, 36 – sum(1, 2, 36) = 39
1, 6, 12 – sum(1, 6, 12) = 19

The sum of their ages is the same as your birth date. That could be anything from 1 to 31 but the fact that Jack was unable to find out the ages, it means there are two or more combinations with the same sum. From the choices above, only two of them are possible now.

2, 6, 6 – sum(2, 6, 6) = 14
3, 3, 8 – sum(3, 3, 8 ) = 14

Since the eldest kid is taking piano lessons, we can eliminate combination 1 since there are two eldest ones. The answer is 3, 3 and 8.

The difference between consecutive numbers of the given series are respectively 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, and 15.

Therefore, 24+11=35 But in your problem it is given as 34.so 34 is wrong number

Given that the student got 125 marks and still he failed by 40 marks

=> The minimum pass mark = 125 + 40 = 165

Given that minimum pass mark = 33% of the total mark

=> total mark =33/100 =165

=> total mark = 16500/33 = 500
