Answer : 1. "26"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 26 Explanation: Gold coins = 18000 , Silver coins = 9600 , Bronze coins = 3600 Find a number which exactly divide all these numbers That is HCF of 18000, 9600& 3600 All the value has 00 at end so the factor will also have 00. HCF for 180, 96 & 36. Factors of 180 = 3 x 3 x 5 x 2 x 2 96 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 36 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 Common factors are 2x2×3=12 Therefore, Actual HCF is 1200 Gold Coins 18000/1200 will be in 15 rooms Silver Coins 9600/1200 will be in 8 rooms Bronze Coins 3600/1200 will be in 3 rooms Total rooms will be (15+8+3) = 26 rooms.

Answer : 2. "Rs. 500"
Explanation :
Answer: B) Rs. 500 Explanation: Let the amounts to be received by P, Q and R be p, q and r.p + q + r = 1200p = 1/2 (q + r) => 2p = q + r Adding 'p' both sides, 3p = p + q + r = 1200=> p = Rs.400 q = 1/3 (p + r) => 3q = p + r Adding 'q' both sides, 4q = p + q + r = 1200=> q = Rs.300 r = 1200 - (p + q) => r = Rs.500.
