Here given series follows a pattern that

0.25, 8, 128, 1024, ?

0.25 x 32 = 8

8 x 16 = 128

128 x 8 = 1024

1024 x 4 = 4096

Total age of 4 members, 10 years ago = (24 x 4) years = 96 years.

Total age of 4 members now = [96 + (10 x 4)] years = 136 years.

Total age of 6 members now = (24 x 6) years = 144 years.

Sum of the ages of 2 children = (144 - 136) years = 8 years.

Let the age of the younger child be x years.

Then, age of the elder child = (x+2) years.

So, x+(x+2) =8 <=> x=3

Age of younger child  =  3 years.

Let P = Rs. 100. Then, S.I. Rs. 60 and T = 6 years.

R=100*60100*6 =10% p.a

Now, P = Rs. 12000. T = 3 years and R = 10% p.a.

C.I=Rs.12000*1+101003-1
       =Rs.3972

Let the C.P of spirit be = Rs.10 per litre

Then S.P l litre of the mixture = Rs. 11

Profit = 20%

Therefore, C.P of the mixture = Rs. 100120×10 = Rs. 25/3 per litre

 Therefore, Ratio of water and spirit = 1 : 5

Here in the given number series 49, 81, 121, 169, 196, 225

Except 196 all others are squares of odd numbers, whereas 196 is a square of 14 which is an even number.

Hence, the odd man in the given number series is 196.

Clearly 4864 is divisible by 4
So, 9 P 2 must be divisible by 3. So (9+P+2) must be divisible by 3.
So P=1.

For 1st year S.I =C.I.

Thus, Rs.16 is the S.I. on S.I. for 1 year, which at 8% is thus Rs.200

i.e S.I on the principal for 1 year is Rs.200

Principle = Rs.100*2008*1 = Rs.2500

Amount for 2 years, compounded half-yearly

 Rs.2500*1+41004=Rs.2924.4

C.I = Rs.424.64

Also, S.I=Rs.2500*8*2100=Rs.400

Hence, [(C.I) - (S.I)] = Rs. (424.64 - 400) = Rs.24.64

Let the numbers be x and y.

Then, xy = 9375 and  x/y = 15.

xyxy=9375/15

=>$$\begin{gathered} y2 =625 \\ \end{gathered}$$

=> y = 25

=> x = 15y = 15 x 25 = 375.

Sum of the numbers = 375 + 25 = 400.
