Burn Rope One first, it will burn in 30 mins.Mark 30 mins and at the end of 30 mins now burn second rope from both sides (15 mins it will take ),and simultaneously burn third and last rope until it is half left.30+15= 45 , Remaining time 7.5 mins.By this time last rope is burnt half ,and now burn it from both sides as well it will exhaust in 7.5 mins. 30+15+7.5=52.5 measured.

Let cost for apple be a Cost for banana be b and Orange be c
So by first value expression becomes 17a + 13b + 9c =130 ———-1 therefore if you further solve a = (130 – 13b – 9c)/17 ———- 2 the second expression becomes: 13c + 7a + 10b = 100 ———- 3 If you put value of a in second expression it becomes: 13c + 7[(130 – 3b – 9c)/17] +10b = 100
Further if you solve you get value of b:
b = 10 – 2c ———-4
put value of b from 4 in 1
17a + 13 [10 – 2c] + 9c = 130
Further if you solve you find value of a
a = c ———-5
Put 5 in 3
13c + 7c + 10b = 100
further solve you get: c = 1 ———-6
from 5 and 6
a = c = 1 ———-7
Substitute value of c in expression 4
b = 10 – 2c b = 10 -2 * 1 b = 8 ———-8
therefore a + b + c = 10

A. 14th
Calculation:
⇒ If 1000 divided by 112, the remainder is 104. ⇒ 112 – 104 = 8 ⇒ If 8 is added to 1000 it will become the smallest four-digit number and a multiple of 112. ⇒ 1000 + 8 = 1008 ∴ The required result will be 1008.
