Ans is option (D) The minute covers $360^{\circ}$ in $60$ minutes. Hence, it will cover $\frac{360^{\circ}\times 35}{60}=210^{\circ}$ in $35$ minutes. Now, area of a sector with radius $r$ units and $\theta$ angle subtended at the centre ,is : $\frac{1}{2}\times r^{2}\times \theta$ units ($\theta$ in radian) . So, $210^{\circ}=210^{\circ}\times \frac{\pi}{180^{\circ}}$ radians $=\frac{11}{3}$ radians $\therefore$ Area of the sector: $\frac{1}{2}\times 100\times \frac{11}{3}=183.33$ cm$^{2}$ [...]

Ans is option (D) Let the original price be $x$ Rs. Price after $p\%$ increase: $x(1+\frac{p}{100})$ Rs. Price after $p\%$ decrease: $x(1+\frac{p}{100})-[\frac{p}{100}\times x(1+\frac{p}{100})]=1$ (given in question) $\therefore$ $x(1+\frac{p}{100})(1-\frac{p}{100})=1$ $\Rightarrow$ $x=\frac{10000}{10000-p^{2}}$ Rs.

$\frac{n^{2}+7n+12}{n^{2}-n-12} = \frac{n^{2}+3n+4n+12}{n^{2}+3n-4n-12}$ $= \frac{n(n+3)+4(n+3)}{n(n+3)-4(n+3)}$ $= \frac{(n+3)(n+4)}{(n+3)(n-4)} = \frac{(n+4)}{(n-4)}$ $\therefore \frac{n^{2}+7n+12}{n^{2}-n-12} = \frac{(n+4)}{(n-4)}$ Now let’s substitute $n$ values given in options $ n = 8 $ $\frac{(n+4)}{(n-4)} = \frac{(8+4)}{(8-4)} =\frac{(12)}{(4)} = 3$ (Positive Integer) $ n = 12 $ $\frac{(n+4)}{(n-4)} = \frac{(12+4)}{(12-4)} =\frac{(16)}{(8)} = 2$ (Positive Integer) $ n = 16 $ $\frac{(n+4)}{(n-4)} = \frac{(16+4)}{(16-4)} =\frac{(20)}{(12)} \sim 1.67$ (Not an integer) $ n = 6 $ $\frac{(n+4)}{(n-4)} = \frac{(6+4)}{(6-4)} =\frac{(10)}{(2)} = 5$ (Positive Integer) Options A, B, D have produced the result as a positive integer. In question, given that we need to find “largest positive integer $n$ such that… [...]
