Volume of water displaced = (3 x 2 x 0.01) = 0.06 cu.m. 

Mass of man = Volume of water displaced x Density of water

 = (0.06 x 1000) kg

 = 60 kg.

Here Avinash gave to Rajeev and Rajeev gave the same to Chanukya

Principal amount and Time is same but the only difference is Rate of interest.

Rajeev took @ 8% and gave it to Chanukya @ 6%

Here the difference in interest rate = 2%

2% of 5400 should be the extra amount paid by Rajeev to Avinash

Required amount = 2 x 5400 x 4100 = 432

Hence, Rs. 432 is the extra amount has to be paid by Rajeev to Avinash after 4 years.

[15000*(1+r/100)2-15000]-(15000*r*2)/100=96

Rate=8%

Total number of sweets

= 80 x 15 x 80/100 + 5 x 80 x 25/100

= 960 + 100 = 1060

Here to convert 0.125 into %

First convert to fractio

Multiply and divide by 1000

=> 0.125 x 10001000 = 1251000 = 18

=> Now, $$\begin{gathered} in percentage \\ 18 x 100 = 12.5% \end{gathered}$$

Here to say which fraction is greater from the given options, the fraction with greater numerator with same denominator or smaller denominator with same numerator.

To find the greater fraction, among the given options, make the denominators same for the options by finding the LCM of all the denominators.

7/12, 9/16, 13/20, 32/80

Now, LCM of 12, 16, 20, 80 = 240.

Then,

140/240, 135/240, 156/240, 96/240

Here 

$$\begin{gathered} 156240 > 140240 > 135240 > 96240 \\ => 1320 > 712 > 916 > 3280 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, largest fraction = 13/20.
