If a:b=2:3 and b:c=4:5, find the value of a2:b2:bc
💡Correct Answer: Option B (16 : 36 : 45)
Combine ratios: a:b:c=(2×4):(3×4):(3×5)=8:12:15. Then a2=82=64, b2=122=144, bc=12×15=180. Ratio 64:144:180 dividing by 4 gives 16:36:45.
A group of students decided to collect as many paise from each member of the group as is the number of members. If the total collection amounts to Rs. 59.29, the number of members in the group is

The sum of the digits of a two digit number is 16. If the number formed by reversing the digits is less than the original number by 18. Find the original number.
💡Correct Answer: Option B (97)
Let the original number be 10x+y. Given x+y=16. Reversed number is 10y+x. Difference: (10x+y)−(10y+x)=18⟹9x−9y=18⟹x−y=2. Adding gives 2x=18⟹x=9,y=7. The original number is 97.
