Reduction of 40% or 4/10th in price of bananas will lead to an increase of 4/(10 – 4) = 2/3rd part in quantity if expenditure is constant.
If original quantity is q, then :
2q/3 = 64
=> q = 64 x 3/2 = 96 = 8 dozens.
=> Original price per dozen = 40/8 = Rs 5

If a blue stone is thrown into a red sea, several things could happen depending on the context and the properties of the stone and the sea:
Symbolically: Since blue and red are contrasting colors, the interaction of a blue stone in a red sea could be seen as a visual or metaphorical contrast. It could represent a stark difference or an unexpected element introduced into an existing situation.
Scientifically: In reality, the color of the stone and the sea would not have a direct physical impact on each other. The stone would sink or float based on its density and the water’s buoyancy. The color of the water, whether red or any other color, does not change the fundamental principles of objects interacting with liquids.
It’s important to note that red seas, in the context of bodies of water, typically do not exist naturally. The phrase “red sea” is often used metaphorically or symbolically rather than referring to an actual body of water with a red color.

e. 56 is 7*8 which is the product of 7 with even no.
There should be 5(2+2+1) decimal places in the answer and the decimal place should end with 2(3*2*2=12) so the correct answer is a, no need for calculator. You can rule out all the other options because it does not satisfy this condition.

Hint: Assume that the speed of the stream is x and the speed of the boat in still water is x. From the statement of the question form two equations in two variables x and y. This system is reducible to linear equations in two variables. Reduce the system to a system of linear equations in two variables by proper substitutions. Solve the system of equations using any one of the methods like Substitution method, elimination method, graphical method or using matrices. Hence find the value of x satisfying both the equation. The value of x will be the speed of the stream.
Complete step-by-step answer:
Let the speed of the stream be x, and the speed of the boat in still water be y.
We have the speed of the boat upstream = y-x.
Speed of the boat downstream = y+ x.
Now since it takes 14 hours to reach a place at a distance of 48 km and come back, we have the sum of the times taken to reach the place downstream and time taken to return back upstream is equal to 14.
Now, we know that time =Distance speed
Using, we get
Time taken to reach the place =48y+x and the time taken to return back =48y−x.
Hence, we have
48y+x+48y−x=14
Dividing both sides by 2, we get
24y+x+24y−x=7 —–(i)
Also, the time taken to cover 4km downstream is equal to the time taken to cover 3km upstream.
Hence, we have 4y+x=3y−x
Transposing the term on RHS to LHS, we get
4y+x−3y−x=0 ——– (ii)
Put 1y+x=t and 1y−x=u, we have
24t+24u=7 ——-(iii)4t−3u=0 ——–(iv)
Multiplying equation (iv) by 6 and subtracting from equation (iii), we get
24t−24t+24u+18u=7⇒42u=7
Dividing both sides by 42, we get
u=742=16
Substituting the value of u in equation (iv), we get
4t−3(16)=0⇒4t−12=0
Adding 12 on both sides, we get
4t=12
Dividing both sides by 4, we get
t=18
Reverting to original variables, we have
1y+x=18 and 1y−x=16
Taking reciprocals on both sides in both equations, we have
y+ x=8 ——- (v)y−x=6 ——–(vi)
Adding equation (v) and equation (vi), we get
2y=14
Dividing both sides by 2, we get
y=7.
Substituting the value of y in equation (v), we get
7+x=8
Subtracting 7 from both sides we get
x = 8-7 =1
Hence the speed of the stream is 1 km/hr.
