Given Pride is to lion as shoal is to ?.

Pride means a group of lions. Similarly, Shoal means a group of fish swimming. Here the other options have no relation with the given word in that manner.

Hence, Pride is to Lion as Shoal is to Fish.

Let the sum be Rs. p, rate be R% p.a. and time be T years.

Then,

 P×T×(R+2)100-P×T×R100=108 ⇒2PT= 10800 ...... (1)

 And, 

 P×R×(T+2)100-P×R×T100=180 ⇒2PR = 18000 ......(2)

Clearly, from (1) and (2), we cannot find the value of p
So, the data is not sufficient.

Let the milk he bought is 1000 ml

Let C.P of 1000 ml is Rs. 100

Here let he is mixing K ml of water

He is getting 30% profit

=> Now, the selling price is also Rs. 100 for 1000 ml

=> 100 : K%

= 100 : 30

10 : 3 is ratio of milk to water

=> Percentage of milk = 10 x 100/13 = 1000/13 = 76.92%

Choose 1 person for the single room & from the remaining choose 2 for the double room & from the remaining choose 4 people for the four person room, 

 Then, ⁷C₁ x ⁶C₂ x ⁴C₄ 

_{= 7 x 15 x 1 = 105}

By mistake = x/10 

Actual value = x * 10 

% Change = 10x-x1010x×100 = 99100×100  = 99% (negative)

Since actual value is greater than the wrong value.

In 1hr, the bus covers 60 km without stoppages and 40 km with stoppages.

Stoppage time = time take to travel (60 - 40) km i.e 20 km at 60 km/hr.

stoppage time = 20/60 hrs = 20 min.
