Let the number of keepers be x. Then,
Total number of feet = 2 × 50 + 4 × 45 + 4 × 8 + 2x = 2x + 312.
Therefore (2x + 312 ) = ( 103 + x) + 224 or x = 15.

Clearly, every member except one must lose one gain to decide the winner.
Thus, minimum number of matches to be played = 30 - 1 = 29.

Let number of notes of each denomination be x.
Then x + 5x + 10 = 480.
16 x = 480 = x = 30.
Hence, total number of notes = 3x = 90.

Ayush's present age = 10 years.

His mother's present age = (10 + 20) years = 30 years.

Ayush's father's present age = (30 + 5) years = 35 years.

Ayush's father's age at the time of Ayush's birth = (35 - 10) years = 25 years.

Therefore Ayush's father's age at the time of marriage = (25 - 2) years = 23 years.

Total number of digits

= (No. of digits in 1- digit page nos. + No. of digits in 2-digit page nos. + No. of digits in 3- digit page nos.)

= (1 x 9 + 2 x 90 + 3 x 267) = (9 + 180 + 801) = 990.

Let d and s represent the number of daughters and sons respectively.

Then, we have :

d - 1 = s and 2 (s - 1) = d.

Solving these two equations, we get: d = 4, s = 3.

Total runs scored = (36 x 5) = 180.

Let the runs scored by E be x.

Then, runs scored by D = x + 5; runs scored by A = x + 8;

runs scored by B = x + x + 5 = 2x + 5;

runs scored by C = (107 - B) = 107 - (2x + 5) = 102 - 2x.

So, total runs = (x + 8) + (2x + 5) + (102 - 2x) + (x + 5) + x = 3x + 120.

Therefore 3x + 120 =180 3X = 60 x = 20.

'All but nine died' means 'All except nine died' i.e. 9 sheep remained alive.

Let total number of members be 100,

Then, number of members owning only 2 cars = 20.

Number of members owning 3 cars = 40% of 80 = 32.

Number of members owning only 1 car = 100 - (20 + 32) = 48.

Thus, 48% of the total members own one car each.

Let number of horses = number of men = x.

Then, number of legs = 4x + 2 x (x/2) = 5x.

So, 5X = 70 or x = 14.
