P.W. = Rs. (540 - 90) = Rs. 450.

S.I. on Rs. 450 = Rs. 90.

S.I. on Rs. 540 = Rs.( 90 /450)x 540 = Rs. 108.

B.D. = Rs. 108.

Now as per question, Karan invested for 12 months and Satish invested for 7 months.

So, Karan:Satish = (29000 x 12):(18000 x 7)

= 348:126

= 58:21

Satish Ratio in profit will be= 16970×2179 = Rs. 4511

Here S = {1,2,3,4,5,6}

Let E be the event of getting the multiple of 3

Then, E = {3,6}

P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 2/6 = 1/3 

Efficiency of P= 100/20= 5% per hour  

Efficiency of Q= 100/25= 4% per hour  

Efficiency of R= 100/40= 2.5% per hour  

Efficiency of S=100/50= 2% per hour 

Cistern filled till 10 am by P, Q and R  

Till 10.00am Pipe P filled 20%Till 10.00am Pipe Q filled 8%Till 10.00am Pipe R filled 2.5%30.5%  

Thus, at 10 am pipe P,Q and R filled 30.5% of the cistern. 

Rest of cistern to be filled = 100 - 30.5 = 69.5%  

Now, the time taken by P,Q,R and S together to fill the remaining capacity of the cistern 

= 69.5 / (5+4+2.5+2) = 5 Hours and 9 minutes(approx).

Therefore, total time =4 hrs + 5hrs 9 mins = 9 hrs and 9 mins

It means cistern will be filled up at 3:09 pm

The hands of a clock coincide 11 times in every 12 hours (Since between 11 and 1, they
coincide only once, i.e., at 12 o'clock).

The hands overlap about every 65 minutes, not every 60 minutes.
The hands coincide 22 times in a day.

Let the numbers be x and 1365+x

Then 1365+x = 6x+15 

=> x = 270

Since 653xy is divisible by 5 as well as 2, so y = 0.
Now, 653x0 must be divisible by 8.
So, 3x0 must be divisible by 8. This happens when x = 2
x + y = (2 + 0) = 2.
