Solution:

1. The person borrowed some money at a rate of simple interest of 12(1/2)% per annum, which can be expressed as a decimal: 12.5% = 0.125.
2. After four years, the person deposited 1250 rupees in the bank as interest.
3. The formula for calculating simple interest is I = P * r * t, where I is the interest, P is the principal (the amount of money borrowed), r is the interest rate per time period, and t is the number of time periods.
4. In this case, the interest I is 1250, the interest rate r is 0.125 per annum, and the number of time periods t is 4 years.
5. Substituting these values into the formula for simple interest, we get: 1250 = P * 0.125 * 4.
6. Solving for P, we find that the person borrowed P = 1250 / (0.125 * 4) = 2500 rupees.

So, the correct answer is option 3) 2500.

The family tree diagram is shown below:

Since P is the sister of S and Y is the husband of P. Y is the Brother-in-law  of S.

Hence the correct answer is Option 1: Wood

Solution:

We are given that 0.3 of 402 is equal to 120.6. We are also given that 8.65 is the starting point. We need to determine how many times we need to add 0.01 to 8.65 to get to 120.6.

120.6 - 8.65 = 111.95

111.95 / 0.01 = 11195

Therefore, we need to add 0.01 to 8.65 11,195 times to get to 120.6.

The correct answer is  1930.

Key Points

• The Salt March, also known as the Salt Satyagraha, Dandi March, and the Dandi Satyagraha, was an act of nonviolent civil disobedience in colonial India led by Mahatma Gandhi.
• The twenty-four-day march lasted from 12 March 1930 to 6 April 1930 as a direct action campaign of tax resistance and nonviolent protest against the British salt monopoly.
• Another reason for this march was that the Civil Disobedience Movement needed a strong inauguration that would inspire more people to follow Gandhi's example.
• Gandhi started this march with 78 of his trusted volunteers.
• The march spanned 239 miles (385 km), from Sabarmati Ashram to Dandi, which was called Navsari at that time (now in the state of Gujarat).
• Growing numbers of Indians joined them along the way.
• When Gandhi broke the British Raj salt laws at 8:30 am on 6 April 1930, it sparked large-scale acts of civil disobedience against the salt laws by millions of Indians.
