Assume the weight of alloy a is 100 kg 

Therefore, The weight of alloy B is 400kg

             Gold          silver         copper

    A       40kg          60kg          0kg

    B      140kg         160kg        100kg

  total    180kg          220kg        100kg

Therefore, Ratio of gold and silver in new alloy = 180500:200500= 36% :44%

From 5 consonants, 3 consonants can be selected in 5C3 ways.

From 4 vowels, 2 vowels can be selected in 4C2 ways.

Now with every selection, number of ways of arranging 5 letters is 5P5ways.

Total number of words = 5C3*4C2*5P5

                                = 10x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1= 7200

required area = (area of an equilateral triangle of side 7 cm)- (3 * area of sector with à = 60 degrees and r = 3.5cm)
34*7*7-3*227*3.5*3.5*60360 sq cm

=34*49-11*0.5*3.5 sq cm

= 1.967 sq cm

Let the present age of the man be 'P' and son be 'Q',
Given, P + Q = 64 or Q = (64 - P)
Now the man says "I am five times as old as you were, when I was as old as you are",
So, P = 5[B - (P - Q)]
We get 6P = 10Q,
Substitute value for Q,
6P = 10(64 - P),
Therefore P = 40, Q = 24.

Let cp= 100,
35 % increase in sp=135
10 % discount in 135((135*10)/100)=13.5
so 1st sp=(135-13.5)=121.5, again 15 % discount in 1st sp((121.5*15)/100)=18.225
2nd sp=(121.5-18.225)=103.275,

so finally cp=100,sp=103.275 ,gain by 3.27%

 Sum of the remaining two numbers = (3.95 * 6) - [(3.4 * 2) + (3.85 * 2)]

                                                   = 23.70 - (6.8 + 7.7) = 23.70 - 14.5 = 9.20.

Required average = (9.2 / 2) =  4.6.

How to find the years which have the same Calendars : 

 Leap year calendar repeats every 28 years. 

Here 28 is distributed as 6 + 11 + 11.

Rules:

a) If given year is at 1st position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Given Year + 6.

 b) If given year is at 2nd position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Given Year + 11.

 c) If given year is at 3rd position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Given Year + 11. 

Now, the given year is 2018

We know that 2016 is a Leap year.

2016  2017  2018  2019  2020

 LY    1st     2nd    3rd    LY

Here 2018 is at 2 nd position after the Leap year.

According to rule ( b) the calendar of 2018 is repeated for the year is 2018 + 11 = 2029.
