The answer for this question is very simple: it is called Ceaser Cipher.
It consists of replacing a character by another located in (current character position + (key-1)), where key = how many positions you want to skip.
For Example: VICTORY -> YLFWRUB with the key = 3.
Then SUCCESS -> QXFFHQQ

Note: it should work like a circle(Z+1 = A).

A=P+SI——(1)
sum of money after 30 years = Double the money
A=2P———-(2)

Equate 1 and 2
P+SI=2P
SI=2P-P
SI=P————-(3)

WKT, SI= PTR/100

Equate 3 and SI

P=PTR/100
P=P*30*R/100
R=P*100/P*30
R=100/30 or 10/3 or 3(1/3) %

The series is 15, 16, 34, 105, 424, 2124, 12576
1) (15*1) + 1 = 16
2) (16*1) + 2 = 34
3) (34*3) + 3 = 105
4) (105*4) + 4 = 424
5) (424*5) + 5 = 2125
Clearly, they gave 2124 instead of 2125, so it is the wrong number in the series.

C. Every real number is a rational number.

A 1×1 cube in the middle of an edge of the 3×3 cube will
have two faces painted. A cube has 12 edges, so the answer
is 12.

Friends,
The Answer given by ‘Gaurav Sharma’ is correct and
the approach (bottom to top) suggested by ‘Shailesh’ is
good. But with minor correction we can arrive the solution
using this approach:
After 5th loot, No. of breads left = 3
after 4th loot, no. of breads left = (3+0.5)x2 = 7
after 3rd loot, no. of breads left = (7+0.5)x2 = 15
after 2nd loot, no. of breads left = (15+0.5)x2 = 31
after 1st loot, no. of breads left = (31+0.5)x2 = 63
So, before 1st loot, no. of breads left = (63+0.5)x2 = 127

Put switch 1 on and leave it on for 2 minutes, then switch it off.
Put switch 2 on and leave it on, then walk into the room.
If the light is on, the answer is switch 2.
If the light is off but the bulb is warm when you feel it, the answer is switch 1.
If the light is off and the bulb is cold when you feel it, the answer is switch 3.
