Total investment = Rs. (120 * 80 + 280 + (40/100) * 120 + 72).
= Rs. (9600 + 280+48 + 72) = Rs, 10000.
Sell price of 120 reams = 108% of Rs. 10000 = Rs. 10800.
Sell Price per ream = Rs. [10800/120] = Rs. 90.

NOTE :

Repetition of leap year ===> Add +28 to the Given Year.

Repetition of non leap year

Step 1 : Add +11 to the Given Year. If Result is a leap year, Go to step 2.

Step 2:  Add +6 to the Given Year.

Solution : 

Given Year is 1897, Which is a non leap year.

Step 1 : Add +11 to the given year (i.e 1897 + 11) = 1908, Which is a leap year. 

Step 2 : Add +6 to the given year (i.e 1897 + 6) = 1903

Therfore, The calendar of the year 1897 can be used again in the year 1903

Since each ring consists of six different letters, the total number of attempts possible with the three rings is = 6 x 6 x 6 = 216. Of these attempts, one of them is a successful attempt.

Maximum number of unsuccessful attempts = 216 - 1 = 215.

Let the Number be Y.

Then  Y = 296 q + 75

= (37 x 8)q +( 37 x 2) + 1

= 37 (8q + 2) + 1

Thus, when the number is divided by 37, the remainder is 1

perimeter = total cost / cost per m = 10080 /20 = 504m
side of the square = 504/4 = 126m
breadth of the pavement = 3m
side of inner square = 126 - 6 = 120m
area of the pavement = (126 x126) - (120 x 120) = 246 x 6 sq m
cost of pavement = 246*6*50 = Rs. 73800
