After Balban's death in 1287, Delhi's kotwal Malik al-Umara Fakhruddin enthroned Balban's teenage grandson Muiz ud din Qaiqabad (or Kayqubad) with the title Muizzuddin. Qaiqabad was a weak ruler, and the administration was actually run by his officer Malik Nizamuddin. After Nizamuddin was poisoned by some rival officers, Qaiqabad summoned Jalal-ud-din from Samana to Delhi, gave him the title "Shaista Khan", appointed him as the ariz-i-mumalik, and made him the governor of Baran.

By this time, Qaiqabad's health had deteriorated, and two rival factions of nobles vied for the power in Delhi. One faction, led by Malik Aytemur Surkha, sought to maintain the power of the old Turkic nobility, and wanted to retain Balban's family on the throne. The other faction, led by Jalal-ud-din, supported the rise of the new nobility

In 1504 Bābur seized Kabul (Afghanistan) with his personal followers, maintaining himself there against all rebellions and intrigues. His last unsuccessful attempt on Samarkand (1511–12) induced him to give up a futile quest and to concentrate on expansion elsewhere. In 1522, when he was already turning his attention to Sindh (now a province in Pakistan) and India, he finally secured Kandahār, a strategic site (now in Afghanistan) on the road to Sindh.

For the first blank, ‘problem’ and ‘with the population explosion’ hold the context of the sentence as population is shown as a problem and the word which fits here is 'compounded' as it means ‘mixed or combined’.
This eliminates all other options.
Also, for the second blank, ‘by this policy’ is enough to tell the usage of 'addressed' as it means ‘discussed’ and completes the sentence by all means.

Meanings of the given words:
Projected (Verb): to forecast or predict.
Discussed (Verb): to talk about.
Threatened (Verb): to cause or make someone to be at risk.
Manifested (Verb): to show or display.
Dispensed (Verb): to distribute.
Acknowledged (Verb): accept the existence of truth.
Compounded (Verb): to mix or combine.
Addressed (Adjective): greet or salute or discussed.

So, the correct option is D.  

The sentence "One cannot expect children to understand these problems" in the Active Voice can be accurately transformed into the Passive Voice as:

Hence Correct Answer is Option A

HCF is 23. So the other two numbers would be,
(23 * 13) and (23 * 14).
Thus Larger Number = 23 * 14 = 322.

Using Rule 1 :
1st number × 2nd number = L.C. M. × H.C.F,
We have,
First number × second number = LCM × HCF

Weights → A + B + C + D = 64 × 4 = 256 kg
Weights → A + B = 50 × 2 = 100 kg
Weights → B + C + D = 70 × 3 = 210 kg
Weights → A + B + B + C + D = 100 + 210 = 310 kg
So the answer = 310 – 256 = 54 kg
Hence, Option D is correct.

(100 – 37.50)% of total employees = 450
62.50% of total employees = 450

Hence, Option C is correct.

D : C = 80 : 100 = 4 : 5
C : B = (100 – 20) : (100) = 4 : 5
B : A = 300 : 100 = 3 : 1
A : B : C : D = 25 : 75 : 60 : 48

Hence, Option D is correct.

Hence, Option A is correct.

Hence, Option B is correct.

Therefore, Pipe C can empty the filled tank in 75 minutes.

Area of rhombus is ½* d1*d2 =6*8/2=24cm².

Given:

Number of work completed by Rita and Meena = 10 days

Number of work completed by Rita alone = 15 days

Formula used:

Work = Efficiency × Time

Calculation:

LCM of 10 and 15 is 30

Efficiency of Rita and Meena = (30/10) = 3 units/day

Efficiency of Rita = (30/15) = 2 units/day

Efficiency of Meena = [30/(3 – 2)] units/day

⇒ (30/1) unit/day

⇒ 30 days

∴ The required time to complete the work by Meena is 30 days

‘Knife’ is related to ‘Cut’, means we use knife for cutting.

Similarly,

We use pen for writing.

Hence, Write is the correct answer.

The Logic followed here is:

The third number = The First number × (second number ÷ 2)

In Row 1:- 10, 4, 20

The third number = 10 × (4 ÷ 2)

= 10 × 2 = 20

In Row 2:- 15, 8, 60

The third number = 15 × (8 ÷ 2)

= 15 × 4 = 60

Similarly,

In Row 3:- 25, 8, ?

The third number = 25 × (8 ÷ 2)

? = 25 × 4 = 100

Hence, the correct answer is "100".

Additional Information 

The most common pattern asked in exams are based on:

• It could be the sum of two numbers divided by a constant
• It could be the average of numbers.
• It could be in the form of alphabets, where alphabets are increased by constant or increased by the square of numbers or increased by prime numbers.
• It could be the difference of product of two diametrically opposite numbers.
• It could be the difference in the sum of adjacent numbers.
• The difference of the numbers could be in the pattern 13 ± 1, 23 ± 1,  and so on.
• The difference of the numbers could be in the pattern 12 ± 1, 22 ± 1, and so on.
• Numbers could be 12, 22, 32, and so on or 13, 23, 33, and so on.
• The difference could be prime numbers or the difference could be the square of prime numbers.
• The difference could be in the form of N2 ± N or N3 ± N.
• The difference could be in the form of ×N + N or ×2 + 1, ×2 + 2, ×2 + 3, and so on.
• The difference could be in the form of ×2 ± 1 alternatively.
• Numbers could be ×1, ×2, ×3, and so on. 

These are all defensive games.
