Given

6 = 3 => Number of letters in SIX = 3

12 = 6 => Number of letters in TWELVE = 6

14 = 8 => Number of letters in FOURTEEN = 8

Similarly,

22 = 9 => Number of letters in TWENTY TWO = 9

Therefore, 22 = 9.

Let Rs. K invested in each scheme

Two years C.I on 20% = 20 + 20 + 20x20/100 = 44%

Two years C.I on 15% = 15 + 15 + 15x15/100 = 32.25%

Now,

(P x 44/100) - (P x 32.25/100) = 528.75

=> 11.75 P = 52875

=> P = Rs. 4500

Hence, total invested money = P + P = 4500 + 4500 = Rs. 9000.

We know that, 60 minutes = 1 Hour. Similarly, 60 seconds = 1 Minute.

Therefore, Minute is to hour as second is to Minute.

For this we have to find the LCM of 24, 36 and 30

LCM of 24, 36 and 30 = 360 sec

360/60 min = 6 minutes.

X= 2/3Y 

=> Y= 3/2X

Aage of X after 6 years = 46 years

So present age of X = 46-6 = 40 years

Now, present age of Y = 3/2 * 40 = 60 years.

Principal = Rs.(100 x 5400)/(12 x 3)= Rs. 15000.

Examples of pure substances include tin, sulfur, diamond, water, pure sugar (sucrose), table salt (sodium chloride) and baking soda (sodium bicarbonate).

Tin, sulfur, and diamond are examples of pure substances which are chemical elements. All elements are pure substances.

Water, sugar, salt and baking soda are pure substances which are chemical compounds. Chemical compounds also are pure substances
