In two throws of a die, n(S) = (6 x 6) = 36.

Let E = event of getting a sum ={(3, 6), (4, 5), (5, 4), (6, 3)}.

P(E) =n(E)/n(S)=4/36=1/9.

55.55 + 155 + 15.55 + 0.5 + 0.05 = ?

 55.55

155.00

 15.55

   0.5

   0.05

_______

226.65

_______

Hence, the value of the given equation 55.55 + 155 + 15.55 + 0.5 + 0.05 = 226.65.

Originally, let the number of seats for Mathematics, Physics and Biology be 5x, 7x and 8x respectively.
Number of increased seats are (140% of 5x), (150% of 7x) and (175% of 8x).
⇒ [(140/100) × 5x],[(150/100) × 7x] and [(175/100) × 8x]
⇒ 7x, 21x/2 and 14x.

⇒ The required ratio =7x : 21x/2 : 14x
⇒ 14x : 21x : 28x
⇒ 2 : 3 : 4

Aman : Rakhi : Sagar = (70000 x 36) : (105000 x 30) : (140000 x 24) = 12 : 15 : 16.

(A+B+C) do 1 work in 10 days.

So (A+B+C)'s 1 day work=1/10 and as they work together for 4 days so workdone by them in 4 days=4/10=2/5

Remaining work=1-2/5=3/5

(B+C) take 10 more days to complete 3/5 work. So( B+C)'s 1 day work=3/50

Now A'S 1 day work=(A+B+C)'s 1 day work - (B+C)'s 1 day work=1/10-3/50=1/25

A does 1/25 work in in 1 day

Therefore 1 work in 25 days.

Let C.P. be Rs. x.

Then,= >1920-xx*100=x-1280x*100

=>  1920 - x = x - 1280

=>  2x = 3200

=>  x = 1600

 Required S.P. = 125% of Rs. 1600 =Rs(125/100*1600) = Rs2000

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.

The word 'OPTICAL' contains 7 different letters.

When the vowels OIA are always together, they can be supposed to form one letter.

Then, we have to arrange the letters PTCL (OIA).

Now, 5 letters can be arranged in 5! = 120 ways.

The vowels (OIA) can be arranged among themselves in 3! = 6 ways.

Required number of ways = (120 x 6) = 720.
