55.55 + 155 + 15.55 + 0.5 + 0.05 = ?

 55.55

155.00

 15.55

   0.5

   0.05

_______

226.65

_______

Hence, the value of the given equation 55.55 + 155 + 15.55 + 0.5 + 0.05 = 226.65.

15th August, 2010 = (2009 years + Period 1.1.2010 to 15.8.2010)

Odd days in 1600 years = 0

Odd days in 400 years = 0

9 years = (2 leap years + 7 ordinary years) = (2 x 2 + 7 x 1) = 11 = 4 odd days.

Jan. Feb. Mar.  Apr.  May.  Jun.  Jul.  Aug.

(31 + 28 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 15) = 227 days = (32 weeks + 3 days) = 3 odd days.

Total number of odd days = (0 + 0 + 4 + 3) = 7 =  0 odd days.

Given day is Sunday

Ratio of times taken by A and B = 1 : 2.

The time difference is (2 - 1) 1 day while B take 2 days and A takes 1 day.

If difference of time is 1 day, B takes 2 days.

If difference of time is 30 days, B takes 2 x 30 = 60 days.

So, A takes 30 days to do the work.

A's 1 day's work = 1/30

B's 1 day's work = 1/60

(A + B)'s 1 day's work = 1/30 + 1/60 = 1/20

A and B together can do the work in 20 days.

When at least 2 women are included.

The committee may consist of 3 women, 2 men : It can be done in  4C3*6C2  ways

or, 4 women, 1 man : It can be done in  4C4*6C1ways

or, 2 women, 3 men : It can be done in 4C2*6C3 ways.

Total number of ways of forming the committees

= 4C2*6C3+4C3*6C2+4C4*6C1

= 6 x 20 + 4 x 15 + 1x 6

= 120 + 60 + 6 =186

In this type of problems the formulae is 5x-30×1211
x is replaced by the first interval of given time Here i.e 8
5*8-30*1211
= 12011min

Therefore the hands will be in the same straight line but not
together at 12011 min.past 8.

Here given 

2, 3, 6, 15, ? , 157.5

2 x 1.5 = 3

3 x 2  = 6

6 x 2.5 = 15

15 x 3 = 45

45 x 3.5 = 157.5

Therefore, the missing number is 45

Here the given number series is 2 4 27 256 3125 46656

It follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 11 = 1 \\ 22 = 4 \\ 33 = 27 \\ 44 = 256 \\ 55 = 3125 \\ 66 = 46656 \end{gathered}$$

Hence the wrong number in the given number series is 2 instead of 1.

Let the number be x, Then 

75% of x + 75 = x 

=> x - 75x/100 =75 

=> x =  300 .
