(P+Q)'s 1 day work = 1/24

P's 1 day work = 1/32

=> Q's 1 day work = 1/24 - 1/32 = 1/96

Work done by (P+Q) in 8 days = 8/24 = 1/3

Remainining work = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3

Time taken by Q to complete the remaining work = 2/3 x 96 = 64 days.

Let the Required cost be X paise.  Less Weight , Less cost (Direct Proportion)

Therefore, 250 : 200 :: 60 : x

=> (250 * x) = (200 * 60)

=> x= 48

Let the Present age of arun is x
Gokul's age = 5-2 = 3
x-6/18 = 3
x-6 = 54
x = 60
Arun's present age = 60 years

area of theplot = 110 * 65 = 7150 sq.m
area of the plot excluding the path = (110-5)* (65-5) = 6300 sq.m
area of the path = 7150 - 6300 =850 sq.m
cost of gravelling the path = 850 x (80/100) = 680 Rs

Let the incomes of A and B be 3P and 4P.

If each saves Rs. 100 per month, then their expenditures = Income - savings = (3P - 100) and (4P - 100).

The ratio of their expenditures is given as 1 : 2.

Therefor, (3P - 100) : (4P - 100) = 1 : 2

Solving, We get P = 50. Substitute this value of P in 3P and 4P.

Thus, their incomes are : Rs.150 and Rs.200

The square of a natural number never ends in 7.
42437 is not the square of a natural number

n(S) = 36

A = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4), (5, 5), (6, 6)}

B = { (2, 6), (3, 5), (4, 4), (5, 3), (6, 2) }

nA=6, nB=5, nA∩B=1

∴Required probability = PA∪B

 = PA+PB-PA∩B

=  636+536-136 = 518

As minute hand covers, 60 degrees

Minute hand covers 4800/60 = 80°
