Angle traced by hour hand in 125/12 hrs = (360/12 * 125/12) = 312102

Angle traced by minute hand in 25 min = (360/60 * 25) = 1500

 Reflex angle = 3600-31212-1500=3600-162102=197102

Number of males = 60% of 1000 = 600. Number of females = (1000 - 600) = 400.

Number of literates = 25% of 1000 = 250.

Number of literate males = 20% of 600 = 120.

Number of literate females = (250 - 120) = 130.

Required pecentage = (130/400 * 100 ) % = 32.5 %.

Since each ring consists of six different letters, the total number of attempts possible with the three rings is = 6 x 6 x 6 = 216. Of these attempts, one of them is a successful attempt.

Maximum number of unsuccessful attempts = 216 - 1 = 215.

Clearly, we have (3 + 11 + 7 + 9 + 15 + 13 + 8 + 19 + 17 + 21 + 14 + x) / 12 = 12.

or  137 + x = 144 or x = 144 - 137 = 7.

Here a = 3 and r = 6/3 = 2. Let the number of terms be n.
Then, t = 384 => a * r^(n-1) = 384
=> 3 * 2^(n-1) = 384 => 2^(n-1) = 128 = 2^(7)

=> n-1 = 7 => n = 8.

perimeter = total cost / cost per m = 10080 /20 = 504m
side of the square = 504/4 = 126m
breadth of the pavement = 3m
side of inner square = 126 - 6 = 120m
area of the pavement = (126 x126) - (120 x 120) = 246 x 6 sq m
cost of pavement = 246*6*50 = Rs. 73800

Let the Number be Y.

Then  Y = 296 q + 75

= (37 x 8)q +( 37 x 2) + 1

= 37 (8q + 2) + 1

Thus, when the number is divided by 37, the remainder is 1
