A measuring device.

Measuring devices have feet on them to measure distance.

Using Pythagoras theorem we can see that 12² + 15² is not equal to 18²
Neither is 10² + 24² = 25²

Let S be the sample space.
Here n(S)= 23 = 8
Let E be the event of getting atmost two heads. Then,
n(E) = {(H,T,T), (T,H,T), (T,T,H), (H,H,T), (T,H,H), (H,T,H)}
Required probability = n(E)/n(S) = 6/8 = 3/4.

Reduction in consumption
= P100+P X 100%
= 25100+25 X 100%
= 20%

Here in 2nd column if you add the individual digits

 we get  3 + 7 + 0 =10 , 2 + 2 + 4 = 8 , 7 + 3 + 0 = 10

7   10   3  --> 7+3 =10

6   8     2  --> 6+2 =8

x   10   1  --> x+1 =10

Here we can observe that by adding 1st and 3rd column elements we get 2nd column elements

 --> x = 9

Nothing can be deduced regarding the effect of reapirs of office building on efficency of workers,or the requirement of funds for repairs,from the given statement.So,neither 1 nor 2 is true

For 1 hour, 20 minutes is slower, then for
06 miuntes - 2 minutes is slower
30 minutes - 10 minutes
Actual time | false time
12 12
01 PM 12:40 PM (20 minutes slower)
02 PM 01:20 PM
03 PM 02:00 PM

So, when actual time is 3pm, the false time is 2 pm.
So, it loses 60 minutes when it shows 2 pm.
