Clearly, If 60 % is equally divided then remaining 40% of total profit will be divided between 2 persons A and B in ratio of (profit of A) : (profit of B)= 12,500 : 8500 = 125 : 85 = 25:17
now difference in amount = 25-17 = 8 this difference = 240
therefore 40% of total profit = 240*(25+17)/(25-17) = 1260
∴ 100% profit = 1260 / 40 × 100 = 3150

Speeds of two trains = 30 kmph and 58 kmph

=> Relative speed = 58 - 30 = 28 kmph = 28 x 5/18 m/s = 70/9 m/s

Given a man takes time to cross length of faster train = 18 sec

Now, required Length of faster train = speed x time = 70/9  x  18 = 140 mts.

Let filling capacity of the pump be 'F' m3/min

Then, the filling capacity of the pump will be (F + 10) m3/min

From the given data,

$$\begin{gathered} 2400F - 2400F+10= 8 \\ ⇒ 2400 F+10-FF(F+10) =8 \\ ⇒ F2 + 10F - 3000 = 0 \\ ⇒ F = 50 m3/min \end{gathered}$$

A number is divisible by 9 only if the sum of the digits of the number is divisible by 9.

Here 86236 = 8 + 6 + 2 + 3 + 6 = 25

We must add 2 to 25 to become 27 which is divisible by 9.

Count the number of odd days from the year 2007 onwards to get the sum equal to 0 odd day.

Year : 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017
Odd day : 1 2 1 1 1 2 1 1 1 2 1

Sum = 14 odd days => 0 odd days.
Calendar for the year 2018 will be the same as for the year 2007.

Clearly total persons are increased in  28/35 :: 52/65 = 4:5.

As time is inversely proportional to men, so total time will decrease in the ratio 5:4.

Hence, 22.5 x 4/5 = 18 days.
