Lightning produces thunder just as a seed will eventually produce a grape.

Let the two consecutive odd integers be (2x + 1) and (2x + 3)

Then,

(2x + 3)² - (2x + 1)²

= (2x + 3 + 2x + 1) (2x + 3 - 2x - 1)

= (4x + 4)(2)
= 8 (x + 1), which is always divisible by 8

Let the Father be x years when he died

Average Age 10 years ago be A

Total Age 10 years ago = 6*A

Total Age after 10 years(Just before father's Death) = 6A + 6*10 = 6A + 60

Father Died and Baby was born => the Total number of people in the family is Same (6)
Baby born today so age of baby = 0

(6A +60 - x)/6 = 6A/6
=> A + 10 -(x/6) = A
=> x/6 = 10
=> x = 60

Therefore we can conclude that the father was 60 years old when he died.

The two major types of computer chips are Microprocessor and Primary memory chips.

Lakshadweep has an area of only about 32 sq km.

The area of Pondicherry, Daman and Diu and Dadar and Nagar Haveli are about 492 sq km and 491 sq km respectively.

Given the three mixtures ratio as (1:2),(2:3),(3:4)

(1+2),(2+3),(3+4)

Total content = 3,5,7

Given equal quantities of the three mixtures are mixed, then LCM of 3, 5, 7 = 105

105/3 = 35 , 105/5 = 21 , 105/7 = 15

Now, the individual equal quantity ratios are (35x1, 35x2), (21x2, 21x3), (15x3, 15x4)

 i.e (35,70), (42,63), (45,60)

So overall mixture ratio of milk and water is

35+42+45 : 70+63+60

122:193

But in the question asked the ratio of water to milk = 193 : 122

The largest 4 digit number is = 9999
After dividing 9999 with 88, we get 55 as remainder
so largest 4 digit number divisible by 88 = 9999-55 = 9944.

Blueberries are the saddest fruits.

Reason ::

In English some colors are associated with feelings. Blue is associated with sadness. When you "feel blue" it means that you are feeling sad.

Hence, as blueberries has blue in its name it indicates that that is the saddest fruit in logic.
