Amount (A₁) = Rs. 2400
t₁ = 1 years
Amount (A₂) = Rs. 3000
t₂ = 2 years
Let rate % = R%
Principal = Rs. P
According to the question,
Case 1
2400 = P(1 + R/100) ... (1)
Case 2
3000 = P(1 + R/100)² ... (2)
Dividing eq. (2) by eq. (1),
3000/2400 = (1 + R/100)
5/4 = (1 + R/100) .. .(3)
From eq. (1),
2400 = P × 5/4
P = 2400 × 4/5
P = Rs.1920
Hence, required principal = Rs. 1920
So, the correct option is 4.

Statement I: The localities along the major rivers of the country are worst affected by Arsenic contamination.

• According to the study conducted at the TERI School of Advanced Studies - a total of 40 districts in Uttar Pradesh are exposed to high concentrations of arsenic in groundwater.
• The majority of them are in the floodplains of the Ganga, Rapti, and Ghaghara rivers.
• It is estimated that nearly 108 countries are affected by arsenic contamination in groundwater (with concentrations beyond the maximum permissible limit of 10 ppb recommended by the World Health Organization.)
• The highest among these are from Asia and Europe, followed by regions like Africa, North America, South America, and Australia.

Hence, the statement I is correct.
Statement II: The major cause of arsenic contamination is the use of groundwater above the permissible level.

• The researchers have inferred that alluvial sediments are the major source of arsenic contamination in groundwater.
• People are exposed to elevated levels of inorganic arsenic through drinking contaminated water, using contaminated water in food preparation and irrigation of food crops, industrial processes, eating contaminated food and smoking tobacco.
• Long-term exposure to inorganic arsenic, mainly through drinking water and food, can lead to chronic arsenic poisoning. Skin lesions and skin cancer are the most characteristic effects.

Hence, statement II is also correct.

• Commercial areas: 55-65 dB
• Residential areas: 45-55 dB
• Silence zone: 40-50 dB
• Indoor limit: <30 dB According to WHO

Noise greater than 75 dB over long exposure can cause hearing damage. Noise above 120 dB can cause biochemical changes in human bodies.

Given,
Average = 30
The first number is 2/3 times of the second number, and the second number is 3/4 of the third number.
Let the third number be Q.
So,
Second number = 3Q/4
First number = 
According to the question,

∴ The first number is 20.

Students ask questions when they are inquisitive and motivated to learn more or go in depth of the subject.
