125 over 1000 in Simplest Form means 1251000 in its simple fraction form.

Now, to get the simplest form of 125/1000, find the HCF or GCD of both numerator and denominator i.e, 125 and 1000.

HCF of 125, 1000 = 125

Then, divide both numerator and denominator by 125

i.e, 1251251000125 = 18

Hence, 18 is the simplest form of 125 over 1000.

Let the speed of the boat = p kmph

Let the speed of the river flow = q kmph

From the given data,

2 x 28p + q = 28p - q

=> 56p - 56q -28p - 28q = 0

=> 28p = 84q

=> p = 3q.

Now, given that if

$$\begin{gathered} 283q + 2q + 283q - 2q = 67260 \\ => 285q + 28q = 67260 \\ => q = 3 kmph \\ => x =3q = 9 kmph \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the speed of the boat = p kmph = 9 kmph and the speed of the river flow = q kmph = 3 kmph.

How to find the years which have the same Calendars : 

 Leap year calendar repeats every 28 years. 

Here 28 is distributed as 6 + 11 + 11.

Rules:

a) If given year is at 1st position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Given Year + 6.

 b) If given year is at 2nd position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Given Year + 11.

 c) If given year is at 3rd position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Given Year + 11. 

Now, the given year is 2018

We know that 2016 is a Leap year.

2016  2017  2018  2019  2020

 LY    1st     2nd    3rd    LY

Here 2018 is at 2 nd position after the Leap year.

According to rule ( b) the calendar of 2018 is repeated for the year is 2018 + 11 = 2029.

Let the cost price of a ball is Rs.x
Given, on selling 17 balls at Rs. 720, there is a loss equal to the cost price of 5 balls
The equation is :
17x - 720 = 5x
Solving the equation
we get x = 60
Therefore, cost price of a ball is Rs. 60.
