Answer: A) decreases Explanation: When water freezes its density decreases. Water at ordinary temperatures contracts and increases in density as it is cooled, like most substances. But at about 4°C it reaches a maximum density and then decreases in density as it approaches the freezing point.

Answer: C) 175 Explanation: Given that,  working days = 5  working hours = 8  A man get rupess per hour is Rs.2.40  So in one day the man get total rupees is 2.40 x 8 = 19.2  So in 5 days week the man get total rupees is 19.2 x 5 = 96  So in 4 week the man get total rupees is 96 x 4 = 384  So the man worked for = 160hours in 4 weeks    But given that the man earned Rs.432    Hence remaning money is (432-384 = 48)which is earn by doing overtime work   Overtime hours  = 48/3.20 = 15 So total worked hours is = 15 + 160 = 175.

Answer: C) 504 Explanation: (COUNTING OF LETTERS) NAMO = 14 + 1 + 13 + 15 = 43 x 4 = 172,  OM = 15 + 13 = 28 x 2 = 56, SHIVAY = 19 + 8 + 9 + 22 + 1 + 25 = 84 x 6 = 504

Answer: C) 3:2 Explanation: Let us assume S as number of shirts and T as number of trousersGiven that each trouser cost = Rs.70 and that of shirt = Rs.30Therefore, 70 T + 30 S = 810=> 7T + 3S = 81......(1)T = ( 81 - 3S )/7 We need to find the least value of S which will make (81 - 3S) divisible by 7 to get maximum value of TSimplifying by taking 3 as common factor i.e, 3(27-S) / 7In the above equation least value of S as 6 so that 27- 3S becomes divisible by 7 Hence T = (81-3xS)/7 = (81-3x6)/7 = 63/7 = 9 Hence for S, put T in eq(1), we getS = 81-7(9)/3 = 81-63 / 3 = 18/3 = 6.The ratio of T:S = 9:6 = 3:2.

Answer: A) inversely with the price level Explanation:

Answer: C) 18th Explanation: Number of persons between Amrita and Mukul = 50 - (10 + 25) = 15. Since Mamta lies in middle of these 15 persons, so Mamta`s position is 8th from Amrita i.e. 18th from the front.
