(b) 16.66%
Earlier for ₹x we could purchase y gm of sugar.
Now we pay ₹1.2x for y gm of sugar
(As there was an increase in price so, x + 20%x = 1.2x)
At current rates for ₹x you can purchase y/1.2 gm of sugar
So the reduced consumption is y-(y/1.2)
Percentage change = (reduced consumption/ original consumption ) *100
That is (0.2/1.2) *100 = 16.66% (approx)
Let the total rotations be x:
So the distance covered by both the wheels will be same,
9 * x = 7 * (x + 10)
x = 35 rotations
distance travelled = 9 * 35 = 7 * (35 + 10) = 315 feet

let the no be x
then given that the difference between the number and 3/5th
of the number is 50
therefor , x-3/5x=50
2x=250
x=125 is the answer
6*6=36 medals
6 days
1st day=1+35/7=6 remaining 30 medals
2nd day=2+28/7=6 remaining 24 medals
3rd day=3+21/7=6 remaining 18 medals
…
6th day 6 medals
Let 10’splace digit is x and unit’s place digit y
First milestone : 10x+y
Second milestone : 10y+x
Third milestone: 100x+y
Since the speed is uniform so
Distance covered in first Hr = Distance covered in Second Hr
(10y+x)-(10x+y) = (100x+y)-(10y+x)
After solving, we get —-> y=6x but since x and y are digits so only possible combination is x=1 and y=6,
So average speed = 45 KM/HR
S=D/T
S=624KM/6.5HRS
S=96KM/HR
Let the age of the man be x
Then age of his son becomes (x−24)
2 years later from now,
Age of man will be = x+2
and age of his son will be =(x−24+2)=x−22
According to question,
2(x−22)=x+2
i.e., 2x−44=x+2
i.e., x=46
Therefore ,
Present age of man=46 years
And present age of his son =46−24=22 years

Let’s say,
I have x coins of 50 paise and (80-x) coins of 100 paise,so the equation is like this ,
50x + (80-x)*100 = 64*100
x = 32
So ,I have 32 coins of 50 paise
I keep myself connected to social networking sites, the first platform for any technological advancement news and also keep surfing on the latest technology on the internet”. You can even say that you are connected to professional people from different media and have a continuing conversation with them regarding the growing technologies.

Nepo’s son age = x
Nepo’s age = 3x
Nepo’s father age = 2*3x + 40
x + 3x + 6x + 40 = 1240
10x = 1200
x = 120
Nepos age = 3* 120 = 360 years
