Solution:

• Let the original length and breadth of the rectangle be 100 each.
• The original area of the rectangle is 100 * 100 = 10000
• After the reduction, the length and breadth of the rectangle become 80 each.
• The new area of the rectangle is 80 * 80 = 6400
• The area of the rectangle decreased by 10000 - 6400 = 3600
• The percentage decrease in the area of the rectangle is 3600 / 10000 * 100 = 36%

So the answer is 4.

The correct answer is Tapeworm.

 Key Points

• Tapeworms are multicellular organisms that belong to the class Cestoda, within the phylum Platyhelminthes.
• They are parasitic flatworms that live in the digestive tract of vertebrates, including humans.
• Tapeworms have a complex life cycle that includes a stage called the proglottid, which is filled with eggs. The proglottids are shed in the host's feces and can infect other organisms if ingested.
• Bacteria, amoebae, and blue-green algae are all examples of unicellular organisms.

The logic followed here is :

Similarly,

Hence the answer is option 4.

Given data:

Discount percentage = 20%

Discount amount = Rs.66

Concept:

To find the original bill amount, we can use the formula: Original Bill Amount = (Discount Amount / Discount Percentage).

Calculation:

⇒ Discount Percentage in decimal = 20% = 20/100 = 0.2

⇒ Original Bill Amount = Discount Amount / Discount Percentage

⇒ Original Bill Amount = Rs.66 / 0.2

⇒ Original Bill Amount = Rs.330

Therefore, the electricity bill was Rs.330.

Solution:

The fraction that we are looking for must satisfy the following equation:

(3/4) = (27/64) * x

Solving for x, we get:

x = (3/4) / (27/64) = (3/4) * (64/27) = 9/16

Therefore, the answer is option 3) 9/16.

Solution:

The answer is 2, 1024.

A perfect square is a number that can be obtained by squaring an integer. The smallest perfect square of four digits is 1024, which is 2^10.

The other options are not perfect squares of four digits. 4000 is 20^2, 1050 is not a perfect square, and 1000 is 10^2.

According to the  given information,

We have to find the number of 9s in the given series which are exactly divisible by the preceding and following numbers.

Solution:

We are given that the simple interest is 136 rupees and the annual rate of interest is 8%. We need to determine the principal amount.

SI = (P * R * T) / 100

136 = (P * 8 * 4) / 100

P = 425

Therefore, the principal amount is 425 rupees.
