Let the no. of men (originally) be x.
x no. of men require 10 days.
if however there were 10 men less it will take 10 days more for the work to be finished. ——> means x-10 men require 10+10=20 days.
10x = 20 (x-10)
x = 2x -20 => x = 20.
Let the number be 10Y+X
(10Y+X)/2 = (10X+Y)/3+6
(10Y+X)(1/2-1/3) = 6
10Y+X = 36
Therefore, sum of the digits = 3+6 = 9
Ans: 9
Here is the solution to the given version of the puzzle (9 balls, one is heavier, need to identify oddball), where we label the balls A, B, …, I:
1. Weigh ABC versus DEF.
Scenario a: If these (1) balance, then we know the oddball is one of G, H, I.
2. Weigh G versus H.
Scenario a.i: If these (2) balance, the oddball is I.
Scenario a.ii: If these (2) do not balance, the heavier one is the oddball.
Scenario b: If these (1) do not balance, then the oddball is on the heavier side. For simplicity, assume the ABC side is heavier, so the oddball is one of A, B, C.
2. Weigh A versus B.
Scenario b.i: If these (2) balance, the oddball is C.
Scenario b.ii: If these (2) do not balance, the heavier one is the oddball.
answer is maximum of 2.

X×x-x=272
X^2-x-272=0
(X-16) or (x-17)
X=16 or x=17
17^2-17=272
Answer Is 17
Let the distance between each pole be x m. Then, distance up to 12th pole = 11x m
∴ Speed = 11x22m/s
∴ Time to cover total distance up to 20th pole
= 19x×2411x
= 41.45 s

16 chapatis* 6 Rs= 96
5 plates of rice * 45 Rs = 225
7 plates of mixed vegetable * 70 Rs = 490
6 ice-cream * ??
The amount that Alok paid the cashier was Rs.961
96+225+490 = 811
961-811= 150
150/6 = 25
The cost of each ice-cream cup is 25 .Rs

500 = Total+50
Total(450) = only one paper(p) + 29+20+35 + all three (g)
285+212+127 = p + 2( 29+20+35 )+ 3g
solve above .. to get g = 45 …
