7 + 1³ – 1 = 7
7 + 2³ – 2 = 13
13 + 3³ – 3 = 37

(62.5 * 14 * 5) ÷ 25 + 41 = (?)³
4375 ÷ 25 + 41 = (?)³
(?)³ = 216
x = 6

48356 + 5412 – 736 = x * 40
53032 = x * 40
x = 1325.8

Following the final solution we can say that 3 persons sits between D and A.
Hence, the correct answer is option C.

Common Explanation:
Reference:
Only 3 persons sit to the left of R.
3 persons sit between R and Q.
Inference:
As we don’t know that in which direction exactly R is facing. So, we can say that there possible scenarios in which we can use the above information correctly.
Case 1:
R faces north.

Case 2:
R faces south.

Reference:
B is 2nd to the left of Q.
Neighbours of R face the south.
B and Q face in opposite direction.
Inference:
We can use the above information in both of the cases accordingly as shown in the figures:

Reference:
More than 2 people’s sits between B and S.
D is 2nd to the left of S.
Inference:
After studying the first information we can say that either 3 or 4 persons are sitting between B and S. and with the second hint we can place D according to S in the row and we can say that there are exactly 4 persons are sitting between B and S.

Reference:
Neighbours of P face the same direction.
A and P faces in opposite direction.
C is 2nd to the right of A.
Inference:
With the first hint we can say that our case 2 is an invalid case as we cannot place P with both of its neighbour facing the same direction.
And after placing P in case 1 we can fix the position of A and C easily and can complete the puzzle.

Let ‘x’ be the increase in the average 

For ‘x’ to be a whole number 72 (= 9 × 8) should be divisible by (n + 8) 
From the choices it can be said that 36 and 72 are two such factors. But 72 does not lie within the range. 
∴ number of students in class are 36.

Answer – b) 35% Explanation : weight of A is x and weight of B is 2x given that 60 kg weight is the 30% percent increase of the original weight, so (130/100)*W = 60, W = 600/13 kg (W = original weight) X + 2x = 600/13, x = 200/13 So weight of A = 200/13 and of B = 400/13 (120/100)*(200/13) + [(100 + a)/100]*(400/13) = 60 Solve for a. We will get a = 35%

Answer – b) losses 4% Explanation : let cost price = 100 so, marked price = 120 now discount of 20% is given, so sp = 120*80/100 = 96 so % loss = (4/100)*100 = 4 percent

Total cost = 360 × 0.78 + 14 + 13 + 5 = Rs. 312.80
He needs to sell 353 eggs for 312.8 + 70 = Rs. 382.8.
Thus, price of one egg = Rs. 1.08

Given: C paid Rs. 1,092.
Let the sum paid by A be Rs. X.
Then, amount paid by B to A = Rs. 1.05X
Amount paid by C to B = 1.04 × 1.05X = Rs. 1,092
 X = Rs. 1,000

Radius of cylindrical pipe (r) = 5/2 meters
Flow rate = 20 m/min
Diameter of conical vessel = 80 meters
Depth of the vessel (h) = 48 meters
According to the question,
Volume of the chemical flow through the pipe in one minute,

[here, h = 20 m]
= 125π m³
Volume of conical vessel,

= 25,600 m³
Therefore, time taken
 

Total number of employee = 2262 + 3485 + 4342 + 4801 + 5326 + 5918 + 6426 + 7028 = 39588

So, the average number of employee = 39588/8

∴ The average number of employees per year is 4948.5
