(1500 x R1 x 3)/100 

=> 4500 (R1-R2) = 1350 

=> (R1-R2)= 1350/4500 = 0.3 %

n (A) = 34, n (B) = 42, n (A  ∩ B) = 20.

So, n (A  U B) = n (A) + n(B) - n(A ∩B) = 34 + 42 - 20 = 56.

Percentage failed in either or both the subjects = 56.

Hence, percentage passed = (100 - 66)% = 44%.

First,we count the number of odd days for the left over days in the given period.

Here,given period is 12.2.1986 to 1.1.1987

Feb Mar Apr May June July  Aug Sept Oct Nov Dec Jan

16   31    30  31   30    31   31   30   31  30   31   1 (left days)

2 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 1(odd days) = 1 odd day

So,given day Wednesday + 1 = Thursday is the required result.

33.33% profit means there is one part water and 3 part is pure wine. so the required ratio of water and wine in the mixture is 1:3

A+B's 1 hour work=112+115=960=320

A+C's 1 hour work=112+120=860=215  

part filled in 2 hrs=320+215=1760  

part filled in 6 hrs=3*1760=1720  

 remaining part =1-1720=320  

Now, it is  the turn of A and B (3/20) part is filled by A and B in 1 hour.

Therefore, Total  time taken to fill the tank =(6+1)hrs= 7 hrs

2500 in 5th year and 3000 in 7th year
So in between 2 years Rs. 500 is increased => for a year 500/2 = 250
So, per year it is increasing Rs.250 then in 5 years => 250 x 5 = 1250
Hence, the initial amount must be 2500 - 1250 = Rs. 1250
