Let number of boys = x  , Let number of girls = y
Total numbers of students = x + y
(x + y) × 15.8 = 16.4x + 15.4y
0.6x = 0.4y
x/y = 0.4/0.6 = 2/3

 Ratio of boys and girls in the class is 2:3

Generic means related to a group of similar things rather than a particular one. It means it is not a specific thing like branded or trademarked. Hence it is a basic one.

Among the given options, Generic is most similar in meaning to Basic.

Let p% of a day is 3 hrs.

We know that a day has 24 hrs.

=> p x 24/100 = 3

=> p = 300/24

=> p = 12.5%

Hence, 3 hrs is 12.5% of a day.

An amorphous or non-crystalline solid is a solid that lacks the long-range order that is characteristic of a crystal. In Brief, An amorphous solid is any noncrystalline solid in which the atoms and molecules are not organized in a definite lattice pattern. Such solids include glass, plastic, and gel.

Quartz glass (SiO2) is an amorphous solid due to its short range order of constituent particles. Note Quartz is a crystalline solid while quartz glass is an amorphous solid.

Here N and C are not common and same letters can be A, I, S, T. Therefore

 Probability of choosing A =  2C19C1×1C110C1 = 1/45 

 Probability of choosing I = 19C1×2C110C1 = 1/45

Probability of choosing S = 3C19C1×3C110C1 = 1/10

Probability of choosing T = 2C19C1×3C110C1 = 1/15

Hence, Required probability =   145+145+110+115= 1990 

Coincide means 00  angle.

This can be calculated using the formulafor time A to B means  [11m/2 - 30 (A)]

Here m gives minutes after A the both hands coincides.

Here A = 3, B = 4

0 =11m/2 –30 × 3
11m = 90 × 2 = 180
m= 180/11 = 16 ⁴/₁₁

So time = 3 : 16 ⁴/₁₁

The digits on either side of the letter in each of the groups 1P6, 2T0, and 1R8 indicate the place value of the letter in the alphabet.

This pattern is not followed by 2Y4.
