let the total no of breads be x.
1st man 2nd man
x- (x/2) – 1/2 – 1/2((x-1)/2) – 1/2 ….. so on.
ans is 31.
first ate : 15.5 + .5 = 16 remaining 15
second ate : 7.5+0.5 = 8 remaining 7.
third ate : 3.5 +0.5 = 4 remaining 3.
fourth ate : 1.5 + 0.5 = 2 remaining 1
fifth ate : 0.5 + 0.5 = 1 remaining 0

x+y+z
—– = 6800
3
x>=6400
6400 + y + z = 20400
y + z = 14000
to get the greatest of y and z, lets assume y = 6400
so, z = 7600
so ANS is 7600

Ques:- If he sells 40 mangoes, he will get the selling price of 4 mangoes extra, What is his percentage increase in profit ?
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:02:06:

I have seen a few say 25% as an answer to this. But looks
like their math isn’t good and is extremeley complex to
have an asnwer of 25% to this question. Consider – Rs.1.00/-
per mango; so 40 mangoes = Rs.40.00/-, implies Rs.4.00/-
extra at the end of the deal. So he’s left with Rs.44.00/-
after selling 40 mangoes implies a profit of Rs.4.00/- over
Rs.40.00 = 44/40 = 110% which means his profit is 10%.
Hope this helps…
Thanks.

Ques:- 100 kgs of potato contains 99% water.Its kept in the sun.The water evaporates and now amount of water is 98 %.Whats the weight of the potatoes?
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2022-09-28 17:44:19:

Initially, potatoes have 99% water by weight ; which means they have 1% solid non-water content.

1% of 100 kg = 1 kg

Now even when they dehydrate,this 1kg solid mass remains constant.

It is given that finally, 98% is water by weight , which implies that 2% is non-water solid.

This means 2% of total weight = 1 kg

Total weight *2/100 = 1 kg

Therefore, total weight finally = 50 kg.

Ques:- In a race of 1000 m, A can beat by 100 m, in a race of 800m, B can beat C by 100m. By how many meters will A beat C in a race of 600 m?
Recent Answer : Added by Kristi Bardhan On 2022-09-02 17:04:02:

When A runs 1000 meters, B runs 900 meters and when B runs 800 meters, C runs 700 meters.

Therefore, when B runs 900 meters, the distance that C runs = (900 x 700)/800 = 6300/8 = 787.5 meters.

So, in a race of 1000 meters, A beats C by (1000 – 787.5) = 212.5 meters to C.

So, in a race of 600 meters, the number of meters by Which A beats C = (600 x 212.5)/1000 = 127.5 meters.
