Explanation

1. Divide 5000 by 73:

$$5000÷73\approx 68.49$$

2. The next whole number after 68.49 is 69.

3. Multiply:

$$73\times 69=5037$$

Explanation

Let's analyze the given sequence:

5 ? 14 10 97

Step 1: Identify a Pattern

We will check for possible arithmetic or geometric patterns.

Observing the numbers:

• 5 → ? → 14 → 10 → 97

Step 2: Check Differences

Let's check if there's an increasing or decreasing pattern:

• Difference between 14 and 10 = -4

• Difference between 10 and 97 = +87

Since the jumps are inconsistent, we may need a different approach.

Step 3: Look for an Alternating Pattern

• The missing number could fit a pattern involving alternating operations.

One possible pattern:

• $5\times 2+4=14$

• $14 - 4 = 10$

• $10 times 10 - 3 = 97$

Thus, checking backwards:

• The missing number should satisfy: $5 times 2 + 4 = ?$

• $5\times 2+4=10+4=12$

Explanation

Given:

• 10 lb of meat at Rs 1.69 per lb

• 20 lemons at Rs 60 per dozen

Step 1: Cost of meat

$$10 text{ lb} times 1.69 = 16.90$$

Step 2: Cost of lemons

• 1 dozen = 12 lemons

• So, price per lemon = $frac{60}{12} = 5$ Rs per lemon

• 20 lemons =$20\times 5=100$ Rs

  Step 3: Total cost

$$16.90 + 100 = 116.90$$

 Correct answer: (D) None of these

Explanation

1. Stone dropped from 400 ft tower — Impact sound heard time:

• What happens: Stone falls, hits water, sound travels back up.

• Key points:

  • Time to fall = $sqrt{frac{2h}{g}} = sqrt{frac{2 times 400}{32}} = 5 text{ seconds}$

  • Time for sound to travel up = $frac{400}{1120} approx 0.36 text{ seconds}$
    

• Total time: Around $5+0.36=5.36$ seconds (approximate).

Explanation

The sentence has a dependent clause ("After he retired") and an independent clause ("he bought the house").

The subordinating conjunction "After" introduces the dependent clause, making it a complex sentence.
