The present average age of a family of five members is 26 years. If the present age of the youngest member in the family is ten years, then what was the average age of the family at the time of the birth of the youngest member ? (Assume no death occurred in the family since the birth of the youngest)

∴ Required ratio = 4 : 3

Odd days in 1600 years = 0

Odd days in 300 years = (5 x 3) ≡ 1

97 years has 24 leap years + 73 ordinary years.

Number of odd days in 97 years ( 24 x 2 + 73) = 121 = 2 odd days.

Jan.  Feb.   March    April    May      June 
(31 +  28  +  31   +   30   +   31   +   17) = 168 days

∴ 168 days = 24 weeks = 0 odd day.

Total number of odd days = (0 + 1 + 2 + 0) = 3.

Given day is Wednesday.

Let 1872/?N = 234.
Then ?N = 1872/234 = 8
? N = 8 x 8 = 64

Let distance covered by dog in 1 leap is x and
Distance covered by cat in 1 leap is y

Then, 3x = 4y
? x= 4/3y

Now, Ratio of speed of dog and cat = Ratio of distance covered by them in the same time = 4x : 5y
= 16/3y : 5y
= 16 : 15

Total volume of cuboid = (10 x 5 x 2) cm³
= 100 cm³
Volume curved = 1/3 x (22/7) x 3 x 3 x 7 cm³
= 66 cm³
% of wood wasted = (100 - 66)% = 34 %

Series pattern
1², 3², 5², 7², 9², 11²
So missing term = 11² = 121

Angle of 360° is covered by hour hand in 12 h .
So, angle of 135° is covered by hour hand in 12/360° x 135° = 4.5 h
Thus, required time = (3 + 4.5)h = 7.5 h = 7 : 30

Try yourself. It was Wednesday.
