Raj’s age today = 17 decades,
Hence, 5 decades back, he must be 12 years old.
Rahim must be 36 years old, Because (3×12).
5 years back Rahim must be 41 years old today. Because (36+5).

Let the cost price be x and selling price be y.
Loss = x – y

When the cost price doubles, the loss gets tripled.
So it becomes like this, 2x – y = 3(x-y)

=> x = 2y

Loss % = (loss/ C.P) x 100 = [(2y-y)/2y] x 100= 50 %

Speed of train 1 = 12010m/sec = 12 m/sec 

Speed of train 2 =12015m/sec  = 8 m/sec 

if they travel in opposite direction, relative speed = 12 + 8 = 20 m/sec

distance covered = 120 + 120 = 240 m

time = distance/speed = 240/20 = 12 sec

F = Rs. 2160

TD = Rs. 360

PW = F - TD = 2160 - 360 = Rs. 1800

True Discount is the Simple Interest on the present value for unexpired time

=>Simple Interest on Rs. 1800 for unexpired time = Rs. 360

Banker's Discount is the Simple Interest on the face value of the bill for unexpired time

= Simple Interest on Rs. 2160 for unexpired time

=(360/1800)* 2160

= (1/5) * 2160

=Rs. 432

The 5 consecutive odd numbers whose average is k are  (k-4), (k-2), k, (k+2), (k+4)

Again the average of (k-4), (k-2), k, (k+2), (k+4), (k+6), (k+8) is (k+2)

First,we count the number of odd days for the left over days in the given period.Here,given period is 09-07-2013 to 07-01-2014

 Therefore, No. of Odd Days =  1 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 0 = 14 = 0 odd days

So, given day Sunday + 0 = Saturday is the required result.
