Morarji Desai, the former finance , prime minister had presented the Union budget for 10 times.

(100-x)%  of 88% of 8400 = 6896

=> x = 6.709%

Area = (l + b – d) d

= (80 + 60 – 10)10

The boring of India’s first underwater rail tunnel under the Hooghly River for establishing metro link between Howrah and Kolkata has completed before its scheduled deadline of July 2017. The tunnel is 16.6 km long, out of which 10.8 km runs under the ground. Of this 10.8 km, 502 metres is under the water and the whole thing connects Howrah to the west and Salt lake to the east. It will have 12 stations and six will be underground. Estimated cost of the entire project is $750 million or about Rs 5,000 crores. The final commissioning of the project is expected by December 2019, following which it will be operational. The project is built by Afcons Transtonnelstroy and implemented by Kolkata Metro Railway Corporation Ltd (KMRCL).

Given,

mean of 100 observations is 40

=> Total of 100 observations = 40 x 100 = 4000

84 is misread as 48

=> Difference = 84 - 48 = 36

=> Now, new total of 100 observations = 4000 + 36 = 4036

Correct Mean = 4036/100 = 40.36

Let the selling price of the rice = Rs.P/kg

Now, according to the question,

1040 - 100p = 30p

=> p = 8/kg

Hence, the selling price of the rice = Rs. 8/kg

Let the amount collected be 'A'
Then, from the given conditions,
A x 110/100 x 90/100 = 7920
A x 0.99 = 7920
A = 7920/0.99
=> 8000
