Let height =x Then,  base =2x

2x * x = 72      

=>x=6

Given, 52416 / 312 = 168.

<=>  52416 / 168 = 312.

52.416 / 0.0168 = 524160 / 168 = 3120.

They have to be arranged in the following way :

                                                                    L  T  L  T  L  T  L  T  L

The 5 lions should be arranged in the 5 places marked ‘L’.

This can be done in 5! ways.

The 4 tigers should be in the 4 places marked ‘T’.

This can be done in 4! ways.

Therefore, the lions and the tigers can be arranged in 5!´ 4! ways = 2880 ways.

Volume required in the tank = (200 x 150 x 2) cu.m = 60000 cu.m 

Length of water column flown in1 min =(20 x 1000)/60 m =1000/3 m 

Volume flown per minute = 1.5 x 1.25 x (1000/3) cu.m= 625 cu.m. 

Required time = (60000/625)min = 96min

Given when she sells at Rs. 160 for 20 articles, she get 40% loss.

Then, to get 20% profit selling at Rs. 240 for let 'P' articles

=> 1602060=240p120

=> 120 x 160 x P = 20 x 70 x 240

=> P =  15 articles.

In the word 'CORPORATION', we treat the vowels OOAIO as one letter.

Thus, we have CRPRTN (OOAIO).

This has 7 (6 + 1) letters of which R occurs 2 times and the rest are different.

Number of ways arranging these letters =7!/2!= 2520.

Now, 5 vowels in which O occurs 3 times and the rest are different, can be arranged in 3!/5!= 20 ways.

Required number of ways = (2520 x 20) = 50400.

If an object travels at 5 feet per second it covers 5x60 feet in one minute, and 5x60x60 feet in one hour.

Answer = 1800 

The year 2006 is an ordinary year. So, it has 1 odd day.
So, the day on 24th Nov, 2007 will be 1 day beyond the day on 24th Nov, 2006.
But, 24th Nov, 2007 is Thursday.
24 - 10 = 14 days.
Therefore, 2 weeks ago it is same day.
Thus, 10th Nov, 2006 is one day before 10th Nov, 2007 i.e. it is Wednesday.
