Amount = Rs.(30000+4347) = Rs.34347

let the time be n years

Then,30000(1+7/100)^n = 34347

(107/100)^n = 34347/30000 = 11449/10000 = (107/100)^2

n = 2years

Numbers are (2³ - 1), (3³ - 1), (4³ - 1), (5³ - 1), (6³ - 1), (7³ - 1) etc.

So, the next number is (8³ - 1) = (512 - 1) = 511.

17th June, 1998 = (1997 years + Period from 1.1.1998 to 17.6.1998)
Odd days in 1600 years = 0
Odd days in 300 years = 1
97 years has 24 leap years + 73 ordinary years.
Number of odd days in 97 years ( 24 x 2 + 73) = 121 = 2 odd days.
Jan. Feb. March. April. May. June.
(31 + 28 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 17) = 168 days
168 days = 24 weeks = 0 odd day.
Total number of odd days = (0 + 1 + 2 + 0) = 3.
Given day is Wednesday.

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

Rs.782*623

Given ratio =12:23:34= 6:8:9

1st part = Rs.782*623 = Rs. 204

Time = 2 years 4 months = 2(4/12) years = 2(1/3) years.
Amount = Rs'. [8000 X (1+(15/100))^2 X (1+((1/3)*15)/100)]
=Rs. [8000 * (23/20) * (23/20) * (21/20)]
= Rs. 11109. .
:. C.I. = Rs. (11109 - 8000) = Rs. 3109.

We have n(s) =52C2 52 = 52*51/2*1= 1326. 

Let A = event of getting both black cards 

     B = event of getting both queens 

A∩B = event of getting queen of black cards 

n(A) = 52*512*1 = 26C2 = 325, n(B)= 26*252*1= 4*3/2*1= 6  and  n(A∩B) = 4C2 = 1 

P(A) = n(A)/n(S) = 325/1326;

P(B) = n(B)/n(S) = 6/1326 and 

P(A∩B) = n(A∩B)/n(S) = 1/1326 

P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B) = (325+6-1) / 1326 = 330/1326 = 55/221

Friends, we know we will need gain amount to get gain percent, right. So lets get gain first.

Let the cost price of 1 pen is Re 1

Cost of 8 pens = Rs 8

Selling price of 8 pens = 12

Gain = 12 - 8 = 4

Gain% = gaincost×100%  = 48×100% = 50%
