16 : 56 :: 32 : ?

Let the required number be 'n'

The given numbers follow a logic that,

16/56 = 2/7

=> 32/n = 2/7

=> 32 x 7/2 = n

=> n = 112.

Hence, 16 : 56 :: 32 : 112.

Let the total amount in the partnership be 'x'.
Then A's share = x/3
B's share = x/4
C's share = x/5
D's share = x - (x/3 + x/4 +x/5) = 13x/60

A : B : C : D = x/3 : x/4 : x/5 : 13x/60 = 20 : 15 : 12 : 13

A's share in the profit of Rs. 2490 = 20 (2490/60) = Rs. 830.

Let the speed of river and boat be 'r' m/min and 'b' m/min.
so relative speed in upstream (b-r)m/min and in downstream (b+r)m/min.
Now in upstream distnce covered in 5 min is 5(b-r)miles
so total distnce covered => 1 + 5(b-r)miles in upstream
In downstream distance covered in 5min is 5(b+r)miles
Now 1 + 5(b-r) = 5(b+r)
1+5b-5r = 5b+5r
1 = 10r
r = 1/10 mile/min => 6 mile/hr.

Amount

=Rs.[8000x(1+5/100)²]

= Rs.[8000 x 21/20x21/20]

= Rs.8820. 

                  Physics             Chemistry

Failed           35%                    45%

Passed         65%                    55%

Passed in both = 22% of total student

percentage of students who are passed in any of the physics or chemistry or both =(65+55) - 22 = 98%

So, the percentage of students who are failed in both = 2%

Therefore, total failed (in both subjects) students = 12 

Let x litre pepsi is required.

(10-9)=1           :                3=(9-6)

Therefore  in 1:3 one part = 5 

=>  x= 5 litres

a : b =(1/2 * x * H) : (1/2 * y * h) 

bxH = ayh        => H/h =ay/bx 

Hence H:h = ay:bx

T.D. = P.W. x B.G. = 576 x 16 = 96.
