Question
A and B together have total of Rs.4000 out of which they
donated 20% to the orphanage school. The remaining amount is to be then redistributed between them in such a manner that A gets 50% more amount than B. If the amount received by A is Rs.2X, then find the value of [(X/12) + 8].Solution
Let the amount received by B be Rs.P. Therefore, amount received by A = 1.50 x P = Rs.1.5P According to the question, => (P + 1.5P) = 4000 x 0.8 => 2.5P = 3200 => P = 1280 Share of A = 3200 – 1280 = Rs.1920 So, 2X = 1920 => X = 960 Required value = [(X/12) + 8] = 80 + 8 = 88

If a + b + c = 12 and ab + bc + ca = 47, and a, b, c are real numbers, find the value of a³ + b³ + c³ − 3abc.
If a + `1/b` = 1 and b + `1/c` =1 , then the value of c + `1/a` is
