Here is the solution to the given version of the puzzle (9 balls, one is heavier, need to identify oddball), where we label the balls A, B, …, I:
1. Weigh ABC versus DEF.
Scenario a: If these (1) balance, then we know the oddball is one of G, H, I.
2. Weigh G versus H.
Scenario a.i: If these (2) balance, the oddball is I.
Scenario a.ii: If these (2) do not balance, the heavier one is the oddball.
Scenario b: If these (1) do not balance, then the oddball is on the heavier side. For simplicity, assume the ABC side is heavier, so the oddball is one of A, B, C.
2. Weigh A versus B.
Scenario b.i: If these (2) balance, the oddball is C.
Scenario b.ii: If these (2) do not balance, the heavier one is the oddball.
answer is maximum of 2.
Robin =72
Dravid = 98
Azhar = 22
Sachine = 98
Total score = 290
12*336/84=48
20(85+0)/2=850
the answer is (a)40
LCM of 4,6,8 and 10 are 120
So, the least number of four digits is 120*9=1080 ( <1000 )
If division of 3 is allowed then I might do 5 divisions in one go & do in less iterations. I would assume max 2 division as you have to hands, and compare the weight.
Answer:
11 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the question,
Time taken by Ramesh to finish a piece of work = 20 days
Time taken by Sushil to finish a work = 25 days
Time for which they worked together = 5 days
Sushil left after = 5 days
So,
One day work of Ramesh is,
One day work of Sushil is,
So,
Work done in 5 days is given by,
Therefore, Remaining work is given by,
Now, as the Sushil left the remaining work was done by Ramesh,
Time taken by Ramesh for the remaining work is,
Therefore, the remaining work will be completed in 11 days by Ramesh.
Question does not clarify if its simple interest or compound interest
Monday
=> 3s = d
=> 5(s-9) = d
therefore
5s-45=3s
2s = 45
s=22.5
hence
d= 67.5
ANSWER is ==> 1
1st step : 0.5
2nd step : 0.5+0.05 = 0.55
3rd step : 0.55+0.10 = 0.65
4th step : 0.65+0.15 = 0.8
5th step : 0.80+0.20 = 1.00
4/5
Total distance to cover = 132 +110 = 242m
Speed = 72kn/hr = 20m/s
time = 242/20 = 12.1 sec.
