The number of ways of arranging n beads in a necklace is (n-1)!2=(8-1)!2=7!2 = 2520 

(since n = 8)

Deepa invested Rs.50,000 for 12 months, Rs.(50000 + 20000) for 12 months and Rs.(50000 + 20000 + 20000) for 12 months.
i.e, she invested Rs.50,000 for 12 months, Rs.70000 for 12 months and Rs.90000 for 12 months.
Sushma invested Rs. 70000 for 2 years; i.e, Rs.70000 for 24 months
And, Avanthi invested Rs.70000 for 1 year; i.e, Rs. 70000 for 12 months.

Their investing ratio:
Deepa : Sushma : Avanthi = (50,000 x 12 + 70000 x 12 + 90000 x 12):(70000 x 24):(70000 x 12)
= (25,20,000):(16,80,000):(8,40,000) = 252:168:84 = 3:2:1

Total profit for 3 years = Rs.3,00,000
Therefore, Sushma's share = Rs.(3,00,000 x 2 /(3+2+1)) = Rs.(3,00,000 x 2/6) = Rs.1,00,000.

Let 1kg of Rs. 100 then 840gm is of Rs. 84.
Now (label on can 1kg but contains 840kg ) so for customer it is of Rs. 100 and further gives 4% discount [he sells his article on 4% loss on cost price.]
So now S.P = Rs. 96
But actually it contains 840 gm so C.P for shopkeeper = Rs. 84
S.P = Rs. 96
C.P = Rs. 84
Profit% = {(S.P-C.P)/C.P}x100
{(96-84)/84} x 100 = 14.28571429% PROFIT.

Given speed = 63 km/hr = 63×518=352 m/s

Let the length of the bridge = x mts

Given time taken to cover the distance of (170 + x)mts is 30 sec.

We know speed = distancetimem/s

⇒352=170+x30

 -->  x = 355 mts.

175760 =2³ x 2 x 5 x 13³
= 2³ x 2 x 5 x 13³

To make perfect cube, it must be divided by 2 x 5 = 10
