Correct Answer: 15
Explanation:
Let the required two numbers be a, b
From the given data,
2a + 3b = 36 .....(1)
3a + 2b = 39 .....(2)
Now, by solving 1 and 2 eqnts, we get
5a = 45
a = 9 ....(3)
Put (3) in (1), we get
2(9) + 3b = 36
=> 18 + 3b = 36
3b = 36 - 18
=> b = 18/3 = 6
Required, difference between the numbers = a + b = 9 + 6 = 15.
Correct Answer: 2000
Explanation:
Let 's' be the number of small packets and 'b' the number of large packets sold on that day.
Therefore, s + b = 5000 ... eqn (1)
Each small packet was sold for Rs.150.
Therefore, 's' small packets would have fetched Rs.150s.
Each large packets was sold for Rs.250.
Therefore, 'b' large packets would have fetched Rs.250b.
Total value of sale = 150s + 250b = Rs. 10.5 Lakhs (Given)
Or 150s + 250b = 10,50,000 ... eqn (2)
Multiplying equation (1) by 150, we get 150s + 150b = 7,50,000 ... eqn (3)
Subtracting eqn (3) from eqn (2), we get 100b = 3,00,000
Or b = 3000
We know that s + b = 5000
So, s = 5000 - b = 5000 - 3000 = 2000.
2000 small packets were sold.

Correct Answer: 2
Explanation:
Given Expression = = = 2
Correct Answer: 1
Explanation:
50.003% of 99.8 ÷ 49.988 = ?
? ~= (50 x 100/100)/50
? ~= (50 x 100)/(100 x 50)
? ~= 1
Correct Answer: 7/25
Explanation:

Correct Answer: 15
Explanation:
Using BODMAS Rule,
First solve division, mutiplication and Addition
So here 10/2 = 5
Then 2 x 5 = 10
Now, 5 + 10 = 15.
Hence, 5 + 2 x 10/2 = 15.
