Fathometer is used to measure Ocean depth.

Fathometer is A depth finder that uses sound waves to determine the depth of water.

The Richter Scale is used to measure the intensity of Earthquakes.

The Decibel Scale is used to measure sound intensity.

Here the series follow the rule that

12+22 = 5

32+42 = 25

52+62 = 61

72+82 = 113

SO NEXT IS, 92+102 = 181

Given number series follows a pattern that,

2

2 x 1.5 + 1 = 4

4 x 1.5 + 1 = 7 (not equal to 8)

7 x 1.5 + 1 = 11.5

11.5 x 1.5 + 1 = 18.25

18.25 x 1.5 + 1 = 28.375

Hence, the odd number in the given number series is 8.

Here the given number series follows a pattern of two alternate series.

1. 7 19 31 ...(Difference of 12)

2. 9 18 27 ...(Difference of 9)

Here the odd number is 29 instead of 27

And the next number is 31 + 12 = 43 & 27 + 9 = 36

The fruit content in both the fresh fruit and dry fruit is the same.

Given, fresh fruit has 68% water.so remaining 32% is fruit content. weight of fresh fruits is 100kg

Dry fruit has 20% water.so remaining 80% is fruit content.let weight if dry fruit be y kg.

Fruit % in freshfruit = Fruit% in dryfruit 

Therefore, (32/100) x 100 = (80/100 ) x y 

we get, y = 40 kg.

The given number series follows a pattern that

5 x 5 – 1 = 24

24 x 4 – 2 = 94

94 x 3 – 3 = 279

279 x 2 – 4 = 554

A's 5 days work = 50%  

B's 5 days work = 33.33% 

C's 2 days work = 16.66%     [100- (50+33.33)] 

Ratio of contribution of work of A, B and C = 50 : 3313 : 1623 = 3 : 2 : 1   

A's total share = Rs. 1500 

B's total share = Rs. 1000 

C's total share = Rs. 500  

A's one day's earning = Rs.300  

B's one day's earning = Rs.200  

C's one day's earning = Rs.250
