Total repayment amount = $1600 + $368
= $1968
= $82

regular payment= total amount/number of repayments

Quarter of Kg means 250 gm

Less weight, less price (Direct Proportion)

So,

250 : 200 :: 60 : x => x = 48

So 200 gm will cost 48 paise.

i=j/m

n
=m(Term)
= 2(15.5)

Given a jeep travels a certain distance taking 6 hrs in forward journey
During the return journey, it takes 4 hrs with an increased speed 12 km/hr
Let 'x' be the distance.
Now, speed is given by distance/time.
Here the difference between both speeds = 12

 x4 - x6 = 12

 3x - 2x12 = 12

=> x = 144 km

Therefore, the distance travelled by the jeep in forward or return journey is x = 144 km.

Let the rate of interest be R

(Interest at rate (R+4)%)–(Interest at R%)

= 600(PT(R+4)/100) –(PTR/100)

= 6003PR +12P –3PR = 60000

12P = 60000

P = 5000

In a family with 2 children there are four possibilities:
1) the first child is a boy and the second child is a boy (bb)
2) the first child is a boy and the second child is a girl (bg)
3) the first child is a girl and the second child is a boy (gb)
4) the first child is a girl and the second child is a girl (gg)

But already given that one child is boy. So we have three possibilities of (bb)(bg)(gb).
n(E)= both are boys=BB=1
n(S)= 3
Required probability P = n(E)/n(S) = 1/3.

Let the cost price of the fruits be 'C.P'

From the given data, after analysis it can be solved as

(121% of C.P) - (125% of 91% of C.P) = 29

$$\begin{gathered} 121100 C.P - 125100 x 91100 x C.P = 29 \\ 121100 - 125 x 91100 x 100 C.P = 29 \\ (12100 - 125 x 91) C.P = 290000 \\ (12100 - 11375) C.P = 290000 \\ 725 C.P = 290000 \\ C.P = 400 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the cost price of the fruits = Rs. 400.

Let the required height of the building be x meter

More shadow length, More height(direct proportion)

Hence we can write as

(shadow length) 40.25 : 28.75 :: 17.5 : x
⇒ 40.25 × x = 28.75 × 17.5
⇒ x = 28.75 × 17.5/40.25
= 2875 × 175/40250
= 2875 × 7/1610
= 2875/230
= 575/46
= 12.5 cm
