125^15 would be 5^18
625^20 would be 5^24
25^10 would yield 5^12
so
The answer is b) i.e. 5^125

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.

1 – (-1) = 1 +1 = 2

Assume Q can do the work alone in Q days:

work of a day by both P and Q =>
(1/15) + (1/Q ) = 1/6
solving this Q = 10.

1 through 24, divisible by 2 in descending order.

That leaves you with:
24, 22, 20, 18, 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2

8th place FROM the bottom means your answer will be 16.

3 years – 3000.0
6 years – 4500.0
9 years – 6750.0
12 years – 10125.0
15 years – 15187.5
18 years – 22781.25

Speed of Stream = 1/2 (Downstream Speed – Upstream Speed)
=1/2(40-14)
=1/2(26)
=13km/h
method 2:
for down stream case :speed=Boat speed + Stream speed
for up stream case :speed=Boat speed – Stream speed

therefore, Bs + Ss =40
Bs – Ss =14
(-) (-) (-)
———————
2Ss=26
Ss=26/2 = 13Km/h
Stream speed= 13Km/hr
