2*3+1=7,7*3+3=24,24*3+5=77,77*3+7=238
step 1--> 3*1-1=2
step 2--> 3*2-2=7

36 people {a1, a2, ..., a36} meet and shake hands in a circular fashion. In other words, there are toTALLY 36 handshakes involving the pairs, {a1, a2}, {a2, a3}, ..., {a35, a36}, {a36, a1}. Find the size of the smallest set of people such that the rest have shaken hands with at least one person in the...
For at least one person & for exactly one person =36/3
For at least two person & for exactly two person =36/2
so
ans is 36/3= 12
if question is asked lyk no "cycle" then n-1.
i.e.36-1
the answer could be {a2,a5,a8,a11,a14,a17,a20,a23,a26,a29,a32,a35}

let he can select a picnic spot =x m
.
. . x/40+x/30=8
x=137.1 m
so ans is b.
Let distance = 'd'
Let us assume forward journey time is 't1'
Return journey time is 't2'
Given t1+t2=8
But time = distance / velocity
t1 = d/40
t2 = d/30
Therefore t1+t2 = d/40 + d/30 = 8
d=137.142
1/3 of a number is 3 more than 1/6 of the same number. What is the number?
18
Let no is x
so i/3 of a no is x/3
and now form the equation according the given language in question
x/3=3+x/6
By solving this equation x=18 so no is 18

. A candidate appearing for an examination has to secure 40% marks to pass paper i. But he secured only 40 marks and failed by 20 marks. What is the maximum mark for paper i?
let us consider x is the maximumber number of marks.
ans is 40%of paper 1=obtained no+faied by no.
40% of y=40+20
=150
x+2y+4z=22
Let cost of 1 pencil, 1 pen and 1 eraser be x,y,z.
now, x+2y+4z=22 - (1)
5x+4y+2z=32 - (2)
subtracting (2)-(1);
4x+2y-2z=10 or 2x+y-z=5 -(3)
subtracting (2)-(3);
3x+3y+3z=27
Answer=Rs27
