One hour = 60 min

18/60 = 3/10

The one word substitute for 'a drawing on transparent paper' is Transparency.

Let the two no's be a and b;
Given product of the no's is p = ab;
If the each nos is increased by 2 then the new product will be
(a+2)(b+2) = ab + 2a + 2b + 4
= ab + 2(a+b) + 4
= p + 2(a+b) + 4
Hence the new product is (p+4) times greater than twice the sum of the two original numbers.

Let the price of each note book be Rs.x.

Let the number of note books which can be brought for Rs.300 each at a price of Rs.x be y.

Hence xy = 300

=> y = 300/x

(x + 5)(y - 10) = 300 => xy + 5y - 10x - 50 = xy

=>5(300/x) - 10x - 50 = 0 => -150+x2+5x

multiplying both sides by -1/10x

=> x2+15x-10x-150=0

=> x(x + 15) - 10(x + 15) = 0

=> x = 10 or -15

As x>0, x = 10.

Distance = 70 x 1 ½ = 105 km

Relative Speed = 85 – 70 = 15

Time = 105/15 = 7 hrs

4:30 + 7 hrs = 11.30 p.m.

4 x 27 x 3125 = 22 × 33 × 55 ;

8 x 9 x 25 x 7 = 23 × 32 × 52 × 7

16 x 81 x 5 x 11 x 49 = 24 × 34 × 5 × 11 × 72

H.C.F = 22 × 32 × 5 = 180.

Arun : Varun : Akhil = (20000 x 24) : (15000 x 24) : (20000 x 18) = 4:3:3

B's share = 25000 x 3/10 = Rs. 7500.
