The word Gotra occurs for the first time in Rigveda. In Hindu society, the term gotra is commonly considered to be equivalent to a clan. It broadly refers to people who are descendants in an unbroken male line from a common male ancestor or patriline.

Generally, the gotra forms an exogamous unit, with the marriage within the same gotra being prohibited by custom, being regarded as incest.

Let the article costs 'X' to A
Cost price of B = 1.2X
Cost price of C = 0.75(1.2X) = 0.9X
Cost price of D = 1.4(0.9X) = 1.26X = 252
Amount paid by A for the article = Rs. 200.

The letters move 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, ... steps forward.

Let sum = S. Then, amount = 7S/6

S.I. = 7S/6 - S = S/6; Time = 3 years.

Rate = (100 x S) / (S x 6 x 3) = 5 5/9 = 50/9 %.

We have : ( a + b + c) / 3 = M   or (a + b + c) = 3M.

Now. a+b+c2=3M2=9M2 .

<=>a2+b2+c2+2ab+bc+ca=9M2

a2+b2+c2=9M2 ,(ab+bc+ca=0)     

Required mean =a2+b2+c23=9M23=3M2 .

350 days = (350/7=50 weeks) i.e  No odd days,

 So it will be a Saturday.
