Given:

Range = 1 to 100

Find multiples of 4 and 6

Concept used: Multiples of both 4 and 6 are multiples of their LCM (Least Common Multiple).

Calculation:

LCM of 4 and 6 = 12

Count multiples of 12 between 1 and 100:

The first multiple within range = 12

Last multiple within range = 96 (12 × 8)

⇒ Number of multiples = (Last - First) / LCM + 1

⇒ Number of multiples = (96 - 12) / 12 + 1

⇒ Number of multiples = 84 / 12 + 1

⇒ Number of multiples = 7 + 1

⇒ Number of multiples = 8

∴ There are 8 such numbers from 1 to 100 that are multiples of both 4 and 6.

The correct of the number of the sides of a polygon is :

4. Hexadecagon (16 sided polygon)

5. Dodecagon (12 sided polygon)

2. Heptagon (7 sided polygon)

3. Pentagon (5 sided polygon)

1. Quadrilateral (4 sided polygon)

Hence, "4, 5, 2, 3, 1" is the correct answer.

Given:

Distance = 900m

Time taken = 2 min 30 sec =150 Sec.

Concept used:

1 km/hr = 5/18 m/Sec

⇒ 1 m/Sec = 18/5 km/hr

Calculation:

Speed =  ×  km/hr

⇒ 21.6 km/hr

∴ The speed is 21.6 km/h

The logic followed here is,

Logic: First Number = (Second Number)² × 3

Let's check,

12: 2

→ 12 = (2)² × 3

→ 12 = 4 × 3

243: 9

→ 243 = (9)2 × 3

→ 243 = 81 × 3

? : 4

→ ? = (4)2 × 3

→ ? = 16 × 3 = 48

Hence, the correct answer is "48".

Additional Information

Given:

Spent on wedding Shopping = ₹ 36000

Spent on Laptop = ₹ 27000

and, Saving = remaining 37% of amount 

Calculation:

Let, the total amount be x.

Then, (100 - 37)% of x = 36000 + 27000

⇒ 63% of x = 63000

⇒ x = (63000 × 100)/63

⇒ x = ₹ 100000

∴ The total amount is ₹ 100000.

From the given information :

There are fifteen members in a friend circle.

Each member sends three chocolates to every other members.

Let the 15 members be A, B, C,......O.

According to the question,

A sends 3 chocolates to each of the 14 members.

Thus, the total number of chocolates send by A = 3 × 14 = 42

Similarly, B also sends 3 chocolates to each of the 14 members and so on and the total number of chocolates send by B = 3 × 14 = 42

So, each person sends a total of 42 chocolates to other persons.

Now,

The total number of chocolates used for this purpose = (no. of persons) × (no. of chocolates sent by one person)

→ 15 × 42

→ 630

Thus, the total number of chocolates used for this purpose is 630.

Hence, the correct answer is "630".

As we know,

If a person completes a piece of work in 'n' days, then work of 1 day is 1/n part of work.

Time taken by Ganesh and Bhima complete a work = 6 days

The part of the work that is completed by Ganesh and Bhima in 1 day  = 1/6

Time taken by Ganesh to complete a work = 10 days

The part of work that is completed by Ganesh in 1 day = 1/10

Now, we first find the part of work completed by Bhima in 1 day 

∴ Bhima completes the whole work in 15 days.

We know that (number of men × time taken) by total time is done remains same.

Hence, 

M = man of first group

T = time taken by second group to complete the work W.

m = man of the second group.

Thus, 3M = 6m

⇒ M : m = 6 : 3 = 2 : 1

The required ratio is 3 men in the first group and 4 men in the second group.

∴ 3M : 4m = 3 × 2 : 4 × 1 = 3 : 2

Let the number of Rs. 2, Rs. 1, and 50 paise in the bag be 6x , 7x, and 15x respectively.
According to the question,
Rs. 2 × 6x + Rs. 1 × 7x + Rs. 0.5 × 15x = Rs. 1590 (∵ 50 paisa = Rs. 0.5)
⇒ x = 60
Thus, the number of Rs. 1 coins = 7x = 7 × 60 = 420

Two pipes can fill a cistern in 2 hours and 3 hours, while a third pipe can drain the cistern empty in 6 hours,

= 1.25

∴ It will take 1 hour and 15 minutes to fill the cistern.
