Answer : 2. "k=7 & l=2"
Explanation :
Answer: B) k=7 & l=2 Explanation: If a number to be divisile by 88, it should be divisible by both "8" and "11" Check for '8' :For a number to be divisible by "8", the last 3-digit should be divisible by "8"Here 72x23y --> last 3-digit is '23y'So y=2 [ (i.e) 232 is absolutely divisible by "8"] Chech for '11' :For a number to be divisible by "11" , sum of odd digits - sum of even digits should be divisible by "11"(7 + x + 3) - (2 + 2 + y)(7 + x + 3) - (2 + 2 + 2)(10 + x) - 6 should be divisible by "11"for x = 7=> 17 - 6 = 11 [ which is absolutely divisible by "11"] So x = 7 , y= 2.

Answer : 2. "338"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 338 Explanation: We know that 40% = 25 40% of 265 + 35% of 180 = 50% ? 25 x 265 + 35% of 180 = 50% ? We know that (35% of 180 = 180% of 35) & 180% = 95 25 x 265 + 95 x 35 = 50% ? 106 + 63 = 50% ? ?= 2 x 169 = 338.
