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:
1. speed of boat in still water = x
2. speed of stream = y;

Then net speed of boat upstream = x – y = 16km / 4 h = 4kmph
Net speed of boat downstream = x + y = 16 / 2 = 8kmph

Now solve for x to get x = 6kmph in still water.

A perfect square is a square number of a digit. eg 64 is a perfect number, a square of 8
Now digits AB9 is a square number of a number.
AB9 Can also be written as A multiply by B multiply by 9
Get the Square root of AB9
Assumption, A=1, B=1
1*1=1=A, 1*1=1=B Therefore,
Square root of A = A, B = B and 9=3
Therefore
An odd number is a number indivisible by 2.
for example 1,3,5,7…….
Therefore Squares A*B*9= AB9
Where a=1, b=1, 3 as digits.
Conclusion
A=1 is an odd number

let (xy) be original number.
then, 10y + x +45 = 10x + y; eq 1
and x + y = 13; eq 2
solve ab equation,
then xy = 94;

12

x,y sides of rectangle
area=xy
increased by 100% =double length
hence
new area=4xy
increased area=4xy-xy=3xy
percentage of area will be increased
by 300%

C. 22%

5 is the answer….
Remaining all are the multiples of 3 expect 5
