Answer :
1.
Age decreased = 8 x 3 = 24 years
So, the required difference = 24 years
2.
By Alligation Method:
∴ Required ratio= 3:2
∴ Quantity sold at 9% profit = 3/3+2 x 65 = 39 kg
3. 1;
Annual payment
4. 3;
Let the cost price Rs. X
5. 5;
Let Anuradha left the work after x days
6. 2;
Required time
7. 4;
Let the speed of the motor boat in still water be x km/hr.
8. 5;
Largest possible tile = HCF of length and breadth of the room = 3.4 m.
Number of tiles required
9. 1;
Favourable event, = {(1,3); (2,2); (2,6), (3,1); (3,5), (4,4); (5,3); (6,2); (6,6)} =9
∴ Required probability = 9/36 = 1/4
