Starting From his house, Sumanth walks 200 feet straight towards North; we can write it as N200. Similarly, the other distances and directions can be considered and written as follows : (Notice that he covers 300 yards towards East; one yard = 3 feet and hence 300 yards = 900 feet)

 N200S100E900 Adding all south and all North distances and finding the net result, and also adding all East and all West distances and finding the net result, this can further be summarized as : N100E900

 Thus, the direction from his original position is North-East.

The logic in the given puzzle is 

4 + 4 = 4 * 4+1 = 4 * 5 = 20

5 + 5 = 5 * 5+1 = 5 * 6 = 30

6 + 6 = 6 * 6+1 = 6 * 7 = 42

7 + 7 = 7 * 7+1 = 7 * 8 = 56

Similarly

9 + 9 = 9 * 9+1 = 9 * 10 = 90.

Indian Oil Corp (IOC) has overtaken Oil and Natural Gas Corp (ONGC) to become India’s most profitable state-owned company. IOC, which has for decades been India’s biggest company by turnover, posted a 70 per cent jump in net profit to Rs 19,106.40 crore in the financial year ended March 31, 2017.

Total number of female members = 115

Let the number of males = x

Number of females = y

=> x + y = 115  ......(1)

According to the given data,

x + y(0.50) = 69 ......(2)

From (1) & (2), we get

0.5y = 46

=> y = 46 x 2 = 92

=> x = 115 - 92 = 23

Hence, required number of gentlemen in the family = x = 23.

In vulcanization, cruder rubber is heated with 3% sulphur at about for 1200C for 2-3 hours.

Vulcanised rubber is a vastly improved product.

CP of 1000gm = Rs. 10
SP of 800gm = Rs. 12
SP of 1000gm =12x1000/800 = Rs. 15

Now take 1000gm as reference to calculate profit.
Profit=SP-CP=15-10=Rs. 5
Profit % = 5x100/10 = 50%
