3 pairs of gloves = 2 x 54 = 108 ; 1 pairs of gloves = 36
3 pairs of leg pads = 2 x 36 = 1 pairs of leg pads = 24
3 cricket balls = 2 x 24 = 48
cost of 1 cricket ball = 16;

Ratio of initial investments = 1/2 : 1/3 : 1/4 = 6 : 4 : 3.

Let their initial investments be 6x, 2x and 3x respectively.

A : B : C = (6x * 2 + 3x * 10) : (4x * 12) : (3x * 12) = 42 : 48 : 36 = 7 : 8 : 6.

B's share =  Rs. (378 * 8/21) = Rs. 144.

The given series follows the pattern that,

18, 97, 26, 91, ?, 83

=> 18 + 8 = 26

=> 97 - 8 = 91

=> 26 + 8 = 34

=> 91 - 8 = 83

Hence, the missing number is 34.

In each number except 383, the product of first and third digits is the middle one.

Weekend means Saturday & Sunday together. In total we have 52 weeks in a year. So there are 52 weekends in a year.

In normal we have 104 Weekend Days.

 We know that a Each normal year has 365 days or 52 weeks plus one day, and each week has two weekend days, which means there are approximately 104 weekend days each year.
Whereas in a leap year we have 366 days it adds one more day to the year. And what makes the change is the starting day of the year.

The Given number series 3, 6.5, 14, 29, 64, 136 follows a pattern that

3

3 x 2 + 0.5 = 6.5

6.5 x 2 + 1 = 14

14 x 2 + 2 = 30 ≠29

30 x 2 + 4 = 64

64 x 2 + 8 = 136

Thus the wrong number in the series is 29

1, 1 + 1² = 2, 2 + 2² = 6, 6 + 3² = 15, 15 + 4² = 31, 31 + 5² = 56, 56 + 6² = 92

Last number of given series must be 92 not 91.

Given that the student got 125 marks and still he failed by 40 marks

=> The minimum pass mark = 125 + 40 = 165

Given that minimum pass mark = 33% of the total mark

=> total mark =33/100 =165

=> total mark = 16500/33 = 500
