The original fraction is  2551 × 350+100150+100  = 15/17.

A Bill becomes a Law; a Larva becomes an insect. (Or)

A Bill turns into a law; a Larva turns into an Insect.

The best approach is to pick a number that satisfies the rules that x and y are greater than 0. So for example you could choose 25 for y.

The value of x before doubling is then 25 - 50/25 = 23

The value after doubling y will be 50 - 50/50 = 49, which is more than double.

rate=r%

1200 (1+r/100)^2=1348.32

r=6%

Here the given words follow a relation in such a way that, grapes are made into wine. Similarly, squid are made into calamari.

Hence, Grapes : Wine :: Squid : Calamari

Given series is A F Z U G L T _

Starts with A

A + 5 letters = F

go to end of alphabet= Z

Z - 5 letters = U

from F go one more to G + 5 letters = L

from U go one back to U, T - 5 letters = O

Second Method ::

Change the letters to their corresponding number.

A=1

B=2

C=3

...

Z=26

A F Z U G L T _

1 6 26 21 7 12 20 ?

Look at the pattern: the 1st and 3rd numbers = 27, 1+26

the 2nd and 4th numbers = 27, 6+21

the 5th and 7th numbers = 27,

so the 6 and 8th would also equal 27.

27 - 12 = 15,

so the letter is O.
