C.I = P1+r100t-1

594.5 = 58001+r1002-1

 594.55800+1=1+r1002

r100=1.05-1=0.05=> r = 5 % .

As Microphone makes sound louder similarly Microscope makes the object magnified.

Hence, Microphone : Loud :: Microscope : Magnify.

Given 45 kg for painting 

And 6% 0f 45 for wasting => 6x45/100 = 2.7 kg

Now total paint required = 45+2.7 = 47.7 kgs

But tins are available in only 4kgs

Then, no. of tins req = 47.7/4 = 11.4 => 12 tins

2nd Jan 1901 means
(1900 years and 2 day)
Now, 1600 years have 0 odd day
300 years have 1 odd day
2 days has 2 odd day
Total no. of odd days = 0 + 1 + 2 = 3 days
Hence, the day on 2nd Jan 1901 was Wednesday.

Ryder Cup is associated with GOLF game.

The Ryder Cup is a biennial men's golf competition between teams from Europe and the United States.

The competition is contested every two years with the venue alternating between courses in the United States and Europe.

Given, y/(x - z) = (y + x)/z = x/y
yz = xy + x2 - yz - xz ....(1)
Also xy = yx-z ⇒x2 -xz = y2 ....(2)
Using (1) and (2), we get yz = xy - yz + y2
2yz = xy + y2
2z = x + y
Only option (B) satisfies the equation.

Here 5, 7 & 9 are repeating after modulation.

Let the C.P be 'x'
Then, the selling price S.P = x - 16x/100
= 84x/100 = 21x/25
Now, if the S.P is 60 more, then the profit is 14%
=> 21x/25 + 60 = x + 14x/100
=> 114x/100 - 21x/25 = 60
=> (57 - 42)x/50 = 60
=> 15x/50 = 60
x = 3000/15 = 200

Therefore, the Cost price C.P = x = Rs. 200
