To find the time it takes for all three to complete the work together, we determine their combined daily work rates.

• Work done by A and B in 1 day: $1/A + 1/B = 1/18$
• Work done by B and C in 1 day: $1/B + 1/C = 1/24$
• Work done by A and C in 1 day: $1/A + 1/C = 1/36$

Next, add all three equations together:

• $(1/A + 1/B) + (1/B + 1/C) + (1/A + 1/C) = 1/18 + 1/24 + 1/36$
• $2(1/A + 1/B + 1/C) = 4/72 + 3/72 + 2/72$
• $2(1/A + 1/B + 1/C) = 9/72$
• $2(1/A + 1/B + 1/C) = 1/8$

Divide by 2 to find their combined 1-day work:

• $1/A + 1/B + 1/C = 1/16$

Working together, they complete $1/16$ of the work in one day, which means they will finish the entire work in 16 days. The official answer key confirms this is option B.

First, we find the initial interest generated over 3 years: 920 - 800 = 120 Rs.

Using the Simple Interest formula $SI = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100}$:

• 120 = (800 * R * 3) / 100
• 120 = 24R
• R = 5%

The initial interest rate is 5%. If the rate increases by 3%, the new interest rate becomes 8%.

Now, calculate the new Simple Interest with the 8% rate:

• New SI = (800 * 8 * 3) / 100
• New SI = 192 Rs.

Finally, add the new interest to the principal to find the new amount:

• New Amount = 800 + 192 = 992 Rs.
  The official answer key confirms the correct choice is option C.

To solve this, we first calculate the total weight of all seven boys using the given average:

• Total weight of 7 boys = 7 * 56 = 392 kg.

Next, we calculate the combined weight of the six boys whose weights are known:

• Sum of 6 boys = 52 + 57 + 55 + 60 + 59 + 55 = 338 kg.

Subtract the combined weight of the six boys from the total weight to find the weight of the seventh boy:

• Weight of 7th boy = 392 - 338 = 54 kg.

The official answer key matches this result as option D.

To find the length of the train, we must calculate the total distance it travels while passing the pole.

First, convert the train's speed from km/h to m/s:

• Speed in m/s = 60 * (5/18) = 300 / 18 = 50/3 m/s.

The time taken to cross the pole is 24 seconds.
The length of the train is equal to the distance covered in this time:

• Distance = Speed * Time
• Distance = (50/3) * 24
• Distance = 50 * 8 = 400 meters.

The length of the train is 400 meters. The official answer key marks option A as correct.

Initial situation: 120 men have provisions for 200 days.

After 5 days pass, the 120 men have consumed 5 days' worth of food. If no one left, the remaining provisions would last the 120 men for 195 days.

• Total provision units remaining = 120 men * 195 days = 23,400 man-days of food.

At this point, 30 men leave, meaning there are 90 men remaining (120 - 30 = 90).
To find how long the remaining provisions will last the 90 men, divide the total remaining units by the new number of men:

• Days remaining = 23,400 / 90
• Days remaining = 260 days.

The provisions will last the remaining men for 260 days. The official answer key confirms option B is correct.

To solve the mathematical expression, apply the standard order of operations (BODMAS/PEMDAS). We solve the operations inside the curly brackets first, moving strictly left to right for multiplication and division:

1. Expression: {15 * 32 / 2 * 5} / 75
2. First operation (multiplication): 15 * 32 = 480
3. Second operation (division): 480 / 2 = 240
4. Third operation (multiplication): 240 * 5 = 1200

Now substitute the result back into the main expression:

• 1200 / 75 = 16

The final answer is 16. The official answer key correctly identifies option B.

We simplify the mathematical expression using the order of operations (BODMAS).

1. Expression: $5 \times (2 \times 3^4) \div 6 + 7 - 8$
2. First, evaluate the exponent inside the parenthesis: $3^4 = 81$
3. Next, complete the multiplication inside the parenthesis: $2 \times 81 = 162$
4. Substitute back: $5 \times 162 \div 6 + 7 - 8$
5. Perform multiplication and division from left to right:
   • $5 \times 162 = 810$
   • $810 \div 6 = 135$
6. Finally, perform addition and subtraction from left to right:
   • $135 + 7 = 142$
   • $142 - 8 = 134$

The final evaluated answer is 134. The official answer key lists option B.

We can set up a simple percentage equation to find the total number of school days.
Let the total number of days the school was open be $T$.
According to the problem, 90% of $T$ equals the days Ajay attended, which is 216 days.

• (90 / 100) * T = 216
• 0.9 * T = 216
• T = 216 / 0.9
• T = 240

The school was open for a total of 240 days. The official answer key confirms this is option C.

First, calculate the original Cost Price (CP) of the book based on the given Selling Price (SP) and the initial gain percentage.

• SP = CP + (Gain% * CP)
• 258 = CP * (1 + 0.20)
• 258 = 1.20 * CP
• CP = 258 / 1.2 = 215 Rs.

Now, calculate the new Selling Price needed to achieve a 30% gain on the CP of 215 Rs.

• New SP = CP * (1 + 0.30)
• New SP = 215 * 1.30
• New SP = 279.5 Rs.

The bookseller must sell it for Rs. 279.50. The official answer key confirms option A is correct.
