Given ratio of number of sheep and horses = 4 : 15
Let number of sheep and horses are 4k and 15k
Number of horses = 13200/110 = 120
Now 15K = 120 and k = 8
Number of sheep = 4k = (4 x 8) = 32

The servant worked for 9 days instead of 12 days, he should receive 9/12 of his total payment

Let the price of 1 shirt be Rs. S 

i.e., 3/4 (400 + S).

However, the question states that the servant receive Rs. 280 + S where S is the price of the shirt.

By equating the two equations we get 3/4 (400 + S) = 280 + S.

Therefore, Price of the shirt S = Rs. 80.

The first person shakes hands with 22 different people, the second person also shakes hands with 22 different people, but one of those handshakes was counted in the 22 for the first person, so the second person actually shakes hands with 21 new people. The third person, 20 people, and so on...
So,
22 + 21 + 20 + 19 + 18 + 17 + 16 + 15 + 14 + 13 + 12 + 11 + 10 + 9 + 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1
= n(n+1)/2 = 22 x 23 /2 = 11 x 23 = 253.

Similar small figures are increasing by one in each of the bigger figure.

Money lent to A+B = (300 + 540) = Rs. 840 

Amount received = Rs. 1032 

Interest received = Rs. 1032 - Rs.840 = Rs. 192

Interest on Rs. 300 lent to A for 1 year = 300×1×4100 = Rs. 12 

Interest on Rs.540 lent to B for 1 year = 540×6×1100 = Rs. 36 

Total yearly interest = Rs.(12+36) = Rs.48 

If interest is Rs. 48, time = 1 year 

If interest is Rs. 192, time =  192/48 = 4 years
