1. There are six columns of coins and there are eight coins in each column. One of the columns..

Answer / prajakta

Answer 1.
case 1: RS. 40,400
case 2: RS. 43,200
case 3: Rs. 45,000
Now annual interest is 9%,
He gets 2628 interest in bank for 2nd option if he
deposits the rest amount i.e.,
(40400-20000) and (40400-(20000+11600)) in bank. But
40400+2628=43028<43200 i.e., even if he adds the interest
got in bank to the original(40400); amount he has to pay is
more than that. Therefore 2nd would be a wrong choice. In
3rd option he gets interest in bank as Rs4158 n
40400+4158=44558<45000.
Therefore 1st option is the best.

case 1: RS. 40,400
case 2: RS. 43,200
case 3: Rs. 45,000

so. remaining RS. 20.000+2X(11,600)

Answer / moxda

case A: 40,400 (CASH)
case B: 45,288 [2(11,600* 9%)= (20,000+12,644+12,644)]
case C: 47,700 [3(10,000* 9%)= (15,000+10,900+10,900+10,900)]

so most attractive option is case 'C'

1 Answers   Qatar Airlines,


At the entrance to a members club stands a stranger seeking admission. A friend told him that it's easy to get in. You just have to answer a question corrcetly! Answering wrong, however, will result in being shot! To live a little longer, the man waits in a back alley near the entrance for people to go in. After a while a man comes to the entrance. The door warden asks him: "Twelve?" to which he replies "Six!" and goes in. "That's easy." our friend thinks, but he waits a little longer. Another man comes to the door. "Six?" the door warden asks, to which he replies "Three!" and goes in. "That's too good to be true" our friend thinks, and he was right. Because, when asked "Four?", he answered "Two!" and was found dead in the alley. What was the correct answer?
