Given:

Five consecutive months sale = Rs. 6,435, Rs. 6,927, Rs. 6,855, Rs. 7,230, Rs. 6,562

Six consecutive months average sale = Rs. 6,500

Formula Used:

Average = sum of values/number of values

Calculation:

Let sale of sixth month be Rs. x

Sum of sales of six consecutive months = Rs. (6435 + 6927 + 6855 + 7230 + 6562 + x)

⇒ Rs. (34009 + x)

Number of months = 6 

Average of sales of six consecutive months = Rs. (34009 + x)/6

⇒ Rs. 6500 = Rs. (34009 + x)/6

⇒ 6 × 6500 = 34009 + x

⇒ 39000 = 34009 + x

⇒ x = (39000 – 34009) 

⇒ x = 4991

∴ Rs. 4,991 sale must he have in the sixth month so that he gets an average sale of Rs. 6,500

Given :

Rs. 700 is divided among Ram, Shyam and Jadu

Calculation:

According to Question 

Let jadu has 4X unit 

Ram : shyam : Jadu = 1 : 2 : 4

⇒ (1+2+4)X = 700

⇒ 7X = 700

⇒ X = 100

Jadu receive 4X unit = 4 × 100 = 400

∴ Jadu will share Rs. 400.

Logic :- Cube of each number.

Given, 125, 64, 216, 81

125 → (5)³

64 → (4)³

216 → (6)³

81 → (3)⁴

So, 81 is different other 3 numbers.

Hence, the correct answer is "81".

Given:

Each side of the Rectangle increases by 20 % 

Concept Used:

Concept of percentage. It is calculated on the basis of 100.

For example, x% means x out of 100.

Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth

Calculation:

Let, the length of the rectangle be l and the breadth be b

According to the Question,

Each side increases by 20% 

⇒ New length = (120/100) × l = (1.2 × l) and new breadth = (120/100)b = 1.2b

Initial area = l × b

new area with new side = (1.2 × l) × (1.2b) = 1.44 × lb 

\(Net;change = \frac{({1.44 - 1}) \times lb}{{lb}} × 100 = 44;% ;;\)

∴ The percentage in area is 44%.
