Let the speed of the boat = p kmph

Let the speed of the river flow = q kmph

From the given data,

2 x 28p + q = 28p - q

=> 56p - 56q -28p - 28q = 0

=> 28p = 84q

=> p = 3q.

Now, given that if

$$\begin{gathered} 283q + 2q + 283q - 2q = 67260 \\ => 285q + 28q = 67260 \\ => q = 3 kmph \\ => x =3q = 9 kmph \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the speed of the boat = p kmph = 9 kmph and the speed of the river flow = q kmph = 3 kmph.

Let sum = S. Then, amount = 7S/6

S.I. = 7S/6 - S = S/6; Time = 3 years.

Rate = (100 x S) / (S x 6 x 3) = 5 5/9 = 50/9 %.

Let the article costs 'X' to A
Cost price of B = 1.2X
Cost price of C = 0.75(1.2X) = 0.9X
Cost price of D = 1.4(0.9X) = 1.26X = 252
Amount paid by A for the article = Rs. 200.

350 days = (350/7=50 weeks) i.e  No odd days,

 So it will be a Saturday.

5 C in an OF denotes 5 Circles in an Olympic Flag.

These are riddles of type

12 S of the Z

52 W in a Y.

The pattern followed in the given figures is

One, two, three, one, two, three.....arcs get inverted sequentially. This inversion takes place in an Anti Clock Wise direction.

Hence, figure 1) will come in the next to complete the series.

The word Gotra occurs for the first time in Rigveda. In Hindu society, the term gotra is commonly considered to be equivalent to a clan. It broadly refers to people who are descendants in an unbroken male line from a common male ancestor or patriline.

Generally, the gotra forms an exogamous unit, with the marriage within the same gotra being prohibited by custom, being regarded as incest.
