Option 1: INR 150
Option 2: INR 75
Option 3: INR 100
Option 4: INR 125
Correct Answer: INR 100
Solution : Let the shares of A, B, and C as $3x, 2x$, and $5x$, respectively. The share of C is INR 300 more than B. So, $5x = 2x + 300$ ⇒ $3x = 300$ ⇒ $x = 100$ Therefore, the shares of A, B,

Question : The average weight of 45 students of a school is 55 kg. If the weight of the teacher is included, the average weight rises by 500 grams. Find the weight (in kg ) of the teacher.
Option 1: 78
Option 2: 77
Option 3: 79
Option 4: 80
Correct Answer: 78
Solution : Total weight of students initially $= 45 \times 55 = 2475$ kg Let the weight of the teacher be $x$. Total number of people now = 46 According to the problem, $\frac{2475+x}{46} = 55+\frac{500}{1000}$ $⇒\frac{2475+x}{46} = 55+0.5$ $⇒2475+x = 55.5\times 46$ $⇒2475+x= 2553$ $\therefore x

Question : If $4 \sin ^2 \mathrm{A}-3=0$ and $0 \leq \mathrm{A} \leq 90^{\circ}$, then $3 \sin \mathrm{A}-4 \sin ^3 \mathrm{A}$ is:
Option 1: $\frac{1}{2}$
Option 2: $\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}}$
Option 3: $0$
Option 4: $1$
Correct Answer: $0$
Solution : $4 \sin ^2 \mathrm{A}-3=0$ $⇒\sin ^2 A = \frac{3}{4}$ $⇒\sin A = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ $3 \sin \mathrm{A}-4 \sin ^3 \mathrm{A}$ $=3 (\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}) - 4 (\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})^3 $ $=3 (\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}) - 4 (\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})^3 $ $=3 (\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}) - 4 (\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8}) $ $=(\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}) - (\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}) $ $= 0$ Hence, the
