Stagflation is a blend of stagnation (in economic growth) and inflation (rise in prices).

From the given data,

The part of honey in the first mixture = 1/4

The part of honey in the second mixture = 3/4

Let the part of honey in the third mixture = x

Then,

1/4             3/4

           x

(3/4)-x     x-(1/4) 

Given from mixtures 1 & 2 the ratio of mixture taken out is 2 : 3

=> 34-xx-14=23

=> Solving we get the part of honey in the third mixture as 11/20

=> the remaining part of the mixture is water = 9/20

Hence, the ratio of the mixture of honey and water in the third mixture is 11 : 9 .

Ratio of investments of A, B & C =>

Share of C = 1530

Share of B = 765

Share of A = 1020

Since  Area of Rectangle = side1 x side2
Therefore, error% in area
= x + y + xy100 %
= [20 - 10 + ( -10 x 20)/100]% or 8%
i.e. 8% excess.

Let Anushka age = X
Charu latha 12 yrs older than Anushka so Charu latha age = x+12
Kajal is thrice as old as Anushka so Kajal age = 3x
The ages of Anushka, Kajal and Charu latha together are 57 years
i.e x + (x+12) + 3x = 57
=> 5x = 45
:- x = 9
Anushka age = 9
Kajal age = 3x = 27
Charu latha age = x+12 = 21

Here If you notice the difference, There is no question mark (?) at the end of the puzzle.

In that case, "What" is the name of the 5th child.
