Let, Hema attempted 'k' sum correctly, then

k x 3 -2 x(35-k) = 60
5k = 130
k = 26

so 26 correct sums.

Because each vertice of the square is the center of a circle
(1/4) part of the total area of each circle inside of the square.
(3/4) part of the total area of each circle outside of the square.
Thus total area outside the square is 434×227×3.5×3.5 = 115.3955 sq cm.

Let investment in each case be Rs. (143 x 117).

Income in 1st case = Rs.11143 x 143 x 117 = Rs. 1287.
Income in 2nd case = Rs.394×117 x 143 x 117= Rs. 1394.25

Clearly, 9 3/4% stock at 117 is better.

Let the three numbers be x, y, z.

From the gien data,

x = 2y ....(1)

x = z/2 => z = 2(2y) = 4y .....(From 1)  ...........(2)

Given average of three numbers = 56

Then,

$$\begin{gathered} x + y + z3 = 56 \\ 2y + y + 4y3 = 56 (From 1 & 2) \\ 7y = 56 x 3 \\ y = 24 \end{gathered}$$

Now,

x = 2y => x = 2 x 24 = 48

z = 4y = 4 x 24 = 96

Now, the highest number is z = 96 & smallest number is y = 24

Hence, required sum of highest number and smallest number

= z + y

= 96 + 24

= 120.

Silico Sapiens generally refers to robots.

Given Word is PROMISE.

Number of letters in the word PROMISE = 7

Number of ways 7 letters can be arranged = 7! ways

Number of Vowels in word PROMISE = 3 (O, I, E)

Number of ways the vowels can be arranged that 3 Vowels come together = 5! x 3! ways

Now, the number of ways of arrangements so that three vowels should not come together

= 7! - (5! x 3!) ways = 5040 - 720 = 4320.
