Assume x soldiers join the fort. 1200 soldiers have provision for 1200 (days for which provisions last them)(rate of consumption of each soldier)
= (1200)(30)(3) kg.

Also provisions available for (1200 + x) soldiers is (1200 + x)(25)(2.5) k

As the same provisions are available
=> (1200)(30)(3) = (1200 + x)(25)(2.5)

x = ([(1200)(30)(3)] / (25)(2.5)) - 1200 => x = 528.

Side of smallest cube = L.C.M of 5, 10, 20 = 20cm  

Volume of the cube = (20 x 20 x 20)cu.cm = 8000 cu.cm  

Volume of the block= (5 x 10 x 20)cu.cm = 1000 cu.cm  

Number of blocks = (8000/1000) = 8

The CP of profitable cow  = 9900/1.1 = 9000

and profit = Rs. 900

The  CP of loss yielding cow = 9900/0.8 = 12375

and loss = Rs. 2475

so, the net loss = 2475 - 900 = 1575

In India, Fiscal Policy is formulated by the Ministry of Finance.

Fiscal policy is playing an important role on the economic and social front of a country. Traditionally, fiscal policy is concerned with the determination of state income and expenditure policy. But with the passage of time, the importance of fiscal policy has been increasing continuously for attaining rapid economic growth.

An effective fiscal policy is composed of policy decisions relating to the entire financial structure of the government including tax revenue, public expenditures, loans, transfers, debt management, budgetary deficit, etc.

Ratio of times taken by P & Q = 100 : 130 = 10:13

Let Q takes x days to do the work

Then, 10:13 :: 23:x

=> x = 23x13/10

=> x = 299/10

P's 1 day's work = 1/23

Q's 1 day's work = 10/299

(P+Q)'s 1 day's work = (1/23 + 10/299) = 23/299 = 1/13

Hence, P & Q together can complete the work in 13 days.

Let original length = x and original breadth = y.  

Decrease in area = xy - 80100x×90100y = (7/25)xy

Decrease % =    (7/25)xy * (1/xy) * 100 = 28%

'Extensively' is describing the verb 'flew' and should be placed after the verb and thus the correct phrase should be 'extensively over'. The error is in the second part of the sentence.

The given number series is 1 8 36 ? 1100 7701

It follows a pattern that,

1

1 x 3 + 5 = 8

8 x 4 + 4 = 36

36 x 5 + 3 = 183

183 x 6 + 2 = 1100

1100 x 7 + 1 = 7701

Hence, the missing number in the given series is 183.
