2172+1832

= 200+172+200-172

It is in the form of a+b2+a-b2=2a2+b2

= 2(40000 + 289) = 80578.

Deepa invested Rs.50,000 for 12 months, Rs.(50000 + 20000) for 12 months and Rs.(50000 + 20000 + 20000) for 12 months.
i.e, she invested Rs.50,000 for 12 months, Rs.70000 for 12 months and Rs.90000 for 12 months.
Sushma invested Rs. 70000 for 2 years; i.e, Rs.70000 for 24 months
And, Avanthi invested Rs.70000 for 1 year; i.e, Rs. 70000 for 12 months.

Their investing ratio:
Deepa : Sushma : Avanthi = (50,000 x 12 + 70000 x 12 + 90000 x 12):(70000 x 24):(70000 x 12)
= (25,20,000):(16,80,000):(8,40,000) = 252:168:84 = 3:2:1

Total profit for 3 years = Rs.3,00,000
Therefore, Sushma's share = Rs.(3,00,000 x 2 /(3+2+1)) = Rs.(3,00,000 x 2/6) = Rs.1,00,000.

Speed of the boat downstream  s=a/t= 60/3 = 20 kmph

Speed of the boat upstream s= d/t = 30/3= 10 kmph

Therefore,  The speed of the stream = speed of downstream - speed of upstream2=5 kmph

Given speed = 63 km/hr = 63×518=352 m/s

Let the length of the bridge = x mts

Given time taken to cover the distance of (170 + x)mts is 30 sec.

We know speed = distancetimem/s

⇒352=170+x30

 -->  x = 355 mts.

There are 7 letters in the word DRAUGHT, the two vowels are A and U. Since, the vowels are not to be separated, AU can be considered as one entity. Therefore, the number of letters will be 6 instead of 7. The permutations will be P(6,6) = 6! ways.

But the two vowels A and U can be arranged in two ways, i.e. AU and UA. The required number of arrangements = 2!.6! = 1440 ways.
