The given series follows the rule,
+(11x1), +(11x3), +(11x5), +(11x7), +(11x9),....

So starting from 7, 7 + 11 = 18, 18 + 33 = 51, 51 + 55 = 106, ...
So wrong number is 40 which is to be 51.

Let the total quantity of gold be p kgs.

According to the question,

50% of p + 25% of p + 12.5% of p = 130900

87.5% of p = 130900

p = 130900 x 100/87.5  = 149600 kgs.

Therefore, the initial gold quantity that king has = p = 149600 kgs.

Total time taken = k/40 + 2k/20 hours

= 5k/40 = k/8 hours

Average speed = 3k/(k/8) = 24 kmph.

6,400 gents, 2400 ladies in that company.
So total 8,800employees.
for 8,800 employees, we want 2400 ladies.
for 12,100employees we want how many ladies ?
=> (12,100/8,800) x 2400 = 3300.
So we want 3300 - 2400 = 900 more ladies.

Required probability is given by P(E) = n(E)n(S) = 14C2 = 16

1/15 + 1/12 + 1/R = 1/6, we got R = 60 (it means R will take 60 days to complete the work alone)

so ratio of work done by P:Q:R = 1/15 : 1/12 : 1/60 = 5 : 4 : 1

so R share = (1/10) x 1200 = 120.

Digits are 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. So no. of digits are 10

First all possible case => 9(0 excluded) x 10 x 10 = 900

Second no repetition allowed =>9 x 9 x 8 = 648

Third all digits are same => 9 (111,222,333,444,555,666,777,888,999)

Three digit numbers where two of the three digits are same = 900 - 648 - 9 = 243 ;

Why Water Is Not an Element :

An element is a substance consisting of only one type of atom. Water consists of two types of atoms: hydrogen and oxygen.

water is both a molecule and a compound :

A compound forms whenever two or more atoms form chemical bonds with each other. The chemical formula for water is H2O, which means each molecule of water consists of one oxygen atom chemically bonded to two hydrogen atoms.

Thus, water is a compound.

It's also a molecule, which is any chemical species formed by two or more atoms chemically bonded to each other. The terms molecule and compound mean the same thing and can be used interchangeably.

Hence, water is both a molecule and a compound.
