Let the total distance to be covered is 84 kms.
Time taken to cover the distance without stoppage = 84/42 hrs = 2 hrs
Time taken to cover the distance with stoppage = 84/28 = 3 hrs.

     CP : MP = 2x : 3x

 => Profit = x

( %) profit : (%) discount = 3:2

Let  CP = 2000,  SP = 300

But  3x100×200 + 2x100×300 = 100

=>  x = 8.33%

Discount 2x = 16.66% 

The given number series is 200, 200, 100, 300, 75, ?

It follows a pattern that,

200

200 x 1 = 200

200 / 2 = 100

100 x 3 = 300

300 / 4 = 75

75 x 5 = 375

Hence, the next number in the given number sequence is 375.

In the dictionary, we get Friday before Thursday. Since, in the dictionary all the words are in alphabetical order, and according to it F comes first than T.

Let the amounts to be received by P, Q and R be p, q and r.
p + q + r = 1200
p = 1/2 (q + r) => 2p = q + r

Adding 'p' both sides, 3p = p + q + r = 1200
=> p = Rs.400

q = 1/3 (p + r) => 3q = p + r

Adding 'q' both sides, 4q = p + q + r = 1200
=> q = Rs.300

r = 1200 - (p + q) => r = Rs.500.

9M + 12B ----- 12 days ...........(1)
12M + 12B ------- 10 days........(2)
10M + 10B -------?
108M + 144B = 120M +120B
24B = 12M => 1M = 2B............(3)

From (1) & (3)

18B + 12B = 30B ---- 12 days

20B + 10B = 30B -----? => 12 days.
