Lets say shyam sells at 100,

Since Ram sells 25% cheaper than Shyam,

Therefor Ram sells at less than 25% of100 or 75 rs.

Ram sells 25% dearer than Bram or 125% of Ram =100% of Bram or

125% of x (say x price of bram )=75rs.
or 100% of x =60rs.
hence price of bram is 60rs.

now Bram's good is cheaper than Shyam's as (100-60)x100/100% or 40%.

Hence Brams Good is 40% cheaper than that of Shyam's good.

From the given information, the sitting arrangement can be

 P-Q-W-S-U-V-T-R  i.e. in circular as

From the above figure it is clear that opposite to U is P.

Here Thread and String are Synonyms of each other. Then the answer will be the synonym of Cask. 

• Cask is nothing but a large barrel-like container used for storing liquids, typically alcoholic drinks. 

Ex : Drum, Vessel, Tank, Barrel, Hogshead, Firkin,...

• Here from the options Barrel is the only synonym of Cask.

Thus,  Thread : String :: Cask : Barrel

Given number series is 61, 66, 83, 121, 185

Here the given series follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 61 \\ 61 + 22 + 1 = 66 \\ 66 + 42 + 1 = 83 \\ 83 + 62 + 1 = 120 (not 121) \\ 120 + 82 + 1 = 185 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the odd man in the given series is 121.

12 S of Z represents 12 Signs of the Zodiac. 

It is similar to the  

1. 52 W in a Y        -  52 weeks in a year  

2. 3 H in a C          -  3 Hands in a Clock  

3. 3600 S in an H   -  3600 Seconds in an Hour 

4. 5 O in the W      -   5 Oceans in the World

The given number series is 90 72 56 42 36 20

9 x 10 = 90

8 x 9 = 72

7 x 8 = 56

6 x 7 = 42

5 x 6 = 30 (not 36) 

4 x 5 = 20

Hence, the odd man in the given number series is 36.

M x T / W = Constant
where, M= Men (no. of men)
T= Time taken
W= Work load
So, here we apply
M1 x T1/ W1 = M2 x T2 / W2
Given that, M1 = 4 men, T1 = 7 hours ; T2 = 2 hours, we have to find M2 =?
Note that here, W1 = W2 = 1 road, ie. equal work load.
Clearly, substituting in the above equation we get, M2 = 14 men.

To rotate is to energy to stop is to inertia. From the definition itself we know that inertia is a property by virtue of which a body continues to be in the state of rest or in state of motion. So over here whenever energy is supplied then the body starts to move that is a displacement is there and it is rotating where as whenever the body is stopped an inertia of rest is created.

So, Rotate : Energy :: Stop : Inertia.
