The twentieth element in the above arrangement is 'E'.
Then, the sixth element to the left of 'E' is 'L'.

The given series follows the rule,
+(5x1), +(5x2), +(5x3), +(5x4), +(5x5),....

So starting from 37, 37 + 5 = 42, 42 + 10 = 52, 52 + 15 = 67, 67 + 20 = 87,...
So wrong number is 47 which is to be 42.

area of the plot = 120m x 60m = 7200 sq.m
area of plot excluding gravel = 117m x 57m = 6669 sq.m
area of gravel = 7200 sq.m - 6669 sq.m = 531 sq.m
cost of building it = 531 sq.m x 65 ps = 34515 ps
In Rs. = 34515/100 = Rs. 345.15.

Let the speed of current = 'C' km/hr

Given the speed of boat in still water = 6 kmph

Let 'd' kms be the distance it covers.

According to the given data,

Boat takes thrice as much time in going the same distance against the current than going with the current

i.e, d8 - C = 3 × d8 + C

$$\begin{gathered} ⇒ 24 - 3C = 8 + C \\ ⇒ 4C = 16 \\ ⇒ C = 4 kmph \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the speed of the current C = 4 kmph.

For 30 days he receives

30 x 25 = 750
               

Actually he gets 425

Therefore, Fine is 750 - 425 =  325

=> No of days absent = 325/(25+7.50)= 10

Given, 

25% of three-seventh of 26% of a number is 145.5

Let the required number be 'N'

i.e, 25100x37x26100xN = 145.5

N = 145.5x7x1000075x26

=> N = 5223.07

Let the value to be find be 'x'.

 
Sum of individual column value = 14

 
C1 = 7 + 2 + 1 + 4 = 14
C2 = 3 + 8 + 1 + 2 = 14
C3 = 6 + 5 + 2 + 1 = 14

C4 = 2 + 4 + 4 + x = 14

x = 14 - 10

x = 4

Hence, the missing number is '4'.
