Job Roles

In the given series numbers are arranged following the rule,

55,44, 33, 22, 11

 Therefore, the missing number is 27.

We know that am×an=am+n 

∴3131-27 = 314 = 961 x 961.

Man's rate in still water = (15 - 2.5) km/hr = 12.5 km/hr.

Therefore,  Man's rate against the current = (12.5 - 2.5) = 10 km/hr.

Given ratio of initial investments = 72:43:65 = 105 : 40 : 36.

 Let the initial investments be 105x, 40x and 36x.

∴A:B:C = 105x×4 + 150100×105x×8 : 40x×12 : 36x×12  

               = 1680x : 480x : 432x = 35 : 10 : 9.

Hence, B's share = 21600×1054 = Rs. 4000.

Ratio of shares of A,B,C = (24 x 4) : (10 x 6) : (56 x 5)

                                    = 96 : 60 : 280.

Let total rent be Rs. x. Then, A's share = Rs.96x436

 ∴96x436=960 ⇔x=960×43696=4360

Hence total rent of the field is Rs. 4360.

a+b=5   ...(1)    and    3a+2b=20 ...(2)

Multiplying (1) by 2 and subtracting from (2), we get : a=10.

Putting a=10 in (1), we get : b=-5

Therefore,   (3a+b) = 3 x 10+(-5)=30-5=25.

Let the numbers be 3x, 4x, 5x.

Then, their L.C.M = 60x.

So, 60x=3600 or x=60.

Therefore,  The numbers are (3 x 60), (4 x 60), (5 x 60).

Hence,required H.C.F=60

Let C.P =Rs. x

Then as given, (753 - x ) = (x - 455)

=>2x = 1208 => x = 604

 There fore S.P= 150% of 604 => Rs. 150100×604= Rs.906
