Days remaining 124 – 64 = 60 days

Remaining work = 1 - 2/3 = 1/3

Let men required men for working remaining days be 'm'

So men required = (120 x 64)/2 = (m x 60)/1 => m = 64

Men discharge = 120 – 64 = 56 men.

 65×65×65×65>2

so, answer is 4 years

Multiplying two negatives (or any even multiple) results in a positive. But multiplying three negatives (or any odd multiple) gives a negative. If the result of multiplying 6 negatives is odd, the largest number of negative integers will be the largest odd number (i.e.5)

Given number of girls are twice that of boys.

--> G=2B and G+B = 60 

Therefore,  G=40 and B= 20

Given Laxmi ranked 27th from the top and 9 boys are ahead of Laxmi.

Therefore, There are 17 girls ahead of Laxmi. 

Therefore, Number of girls who ranked after Laxmi = 40 - (17+1) = 22.

Given rate of wheat at cheap = Rs. 2.90/kg

Rate of wheat at cost = Rs. 3.20/kg

Mixture rate = Rs. 3/kg

Ratio of mixture = 

          2.90                              3.20

                              3

(3.20 - 3 = 0.20)            (3 - 2.90 = 0.10)

0.20 : 0.10 = 2:1

Hence, wheat at Rs. 3.20/kg be mixed with wheat at Rs. 2.90/kg in the ratio of 2:1, so that the mixture be worth Rs. 3/kg.

ABACUS is a 6 letter word with 3 of the letters being vowels.

If the 3 vowels have to appear together, then there will 3 other consonants and a set of 3 vowels together.

These 4 elements can be rearranged in 4! Ways.

The 3 vowels can rearrange amongst themselves in 3!/2! ways as "a" appears twice.

Hence, the total number of rearrangements in which the vowels appear together are (4! x 3!)/2!

Since the word hexagon contains 7 different letters,the number of permutations is 7P3 = 7 x 6 x 5 =210
