From the given information :

D O W N A M E == 5 @ 9 # 6 % 3
MODE = %@53

Let the speed of current = 'C' km/hr

Given the speed of boat in still water = 6 kmph

Let 'd' kms be the distance it covers.

According to the given data,

Boat takes thrice as much time in going the same distance against the current than going with the current

i.e, d8 - C = 3 × d8 + C

$$\begin{gathered} ⇒ 24 - 3C = 8 + C \\ ⇒ 4C = 16 \\ ⇒ C = 4 kmph \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the speed of the current C = 4 kmph.

The 8 letters can be written in 8! ways.
n(S) = 8!
Let E be the event that the letters b,c,d,e always come together when the first 8 alphabets are written down.
Now the letters a, (bcde), f, g and h can be arranged in 5! ways.
The letters b,c,d and e can be arranged themselves in 4! ways.
n(E) = 5! x 4!
Now, the required P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 5! x 4!/8! = 1/14
Hence the answer is 1/14. 

The sum of the digits in 708, 618 and 816 is 15, but not in 392.

Given 30% of 500

$$\begin{gathered} = 30100 x 500 \\ = 30 x 5 \\ = 150 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, 30% of Rs. 500 = Rs. 150.

As the win leads to multiplying the amount by 1.5 and loss leads to multiplying the amount by 0.5, we will multiply the initial amount by 1.5 thrice and by 0.5 thrice (in any order).

The overall resultant will remain same.

So final amount with the person will be (in all cases):

= 64(1.5)(1.5)(1.5)(0.5)(0.5)(0.5)= Rs. 27

Hence the final result is: 

64 − 27 = 37

A loss of Rs.37

Initial speed = 80km/hr
Total distance = 80 x 10 = 800km
New speed = 800/4 =200km/hr
Increase in speed = 200 - 80 = 120km/hr
