The price of a cycle is reduced by 25 per cent. The new price is reduced by a further 20 per cent. The two reductions together are equal to a single reduction of

Distance covered = 550 meter. = 0.55 km
Speed of the train = 55 km/hr

So time taken = 0.55 / 55 =1/100 hr = (60 x 60 )/100 sec = 36 sec

? = 95^3.7 ÷ 95^0.9989 = 95^?
? 95^{(3.7 - 0.9989)} = 95^?
? 95^2.7011 = 95^?
? ? = 2.7011 ? 2.7

Therefore x = 21%

Total no.of boys : no. of girls = 13:27

       27             :                13

Let the price of the mixed variety be Rs. x per kg. By the rule of alligation, we have :

Cost of 1 kg of type 1 rice           Cost of 1 kg of type 2 rice  

?(20-x)/(x-15) = 2/3 

? 60 - 3x = 2x - 30

  ? x = 18.

pool : kerosene 

   3  :  2(initially) 

   2  :  3(after replacement)

  R e m a i n i n g Q u a n t i t y I n i t i a l Q u a n t i t y = 1 - R e p l a c e d Q u a n t i t y T o t a l Q u a n t i t y

(for petrol)    2 3 = 1 - 10 k

 => K = 30

 Therefore the total quantity of the mixture in the container is 30 liters.

Let the capacity of the pot be 'P' litres.
Quantity of milk in the mixture before adding milk = 4/9 (P - 8)
After adding milk, quantity of milk in the mixture = 6/11 P.
6P/11 - 8 = 4/9(P - 8)
10P = 792 - 352 => P = 44.

The capacity of the pot is 44 liters.
