1.) 15x+y+z/4 = x+y+z

solving gives x=3;y=41;z=56

2.) Numbers are not appropriate..solution comes independent of amount of milk that a black cow gives.

3.) they have 15,30,60,120 paise respectively.........so Bindiya has 30 paise...i.e 1 20 paisa coin and other 10 paisa coin

Answer for 7th on:

let the no of students who solved only A=x
so from last two statements x(only A)+x(only B and C)+x-1(who solved 2 problems)=25 =>x=8
so only 8 students solved A
