Cake Chain Set------------
Right statement---------------- 3 only
9) Cake Chain in losses------------ 1,2,3,4

10) a & b roots of quadratic--------- -3Pn-1 + Pn-2
11) Sangeeta & Swati------------ 9:00 PM
12) Steel Express------------- 7P5/7^5
13) Quadrilateral ABCD, AB = a+(b)^1/2------------- None of these
14) KK Entrepreneur, Break Even Point-------------- 80 lac
15) Four digit number X with 3 consective digits--------- None of these(22)
16) Time taken by Inspector------------ 20 minutes
17) Distance travelled------------- 5 KM....

Hoping for 90%+ accuracy...

I guess answer for the quadrilateral ques shud be 207...(196)^1/2 + 11 =25 which is the length of the 4th side(14 +10cos60 +12cos60)

In my opinion, Answer is None of these(20)...
For Each digit from 1,2,4,5,7,8 we have two numbers... 111x & x111... like that...
But for 3,6,9.. we have 3 such cases... 3330,3339,9333...
nd Another number falls in this category.. 9000...
So Total 20 numbers possible..

Answer is 4 years...

By taking ROI @12% pa, After 4 years S.I will be - 48% of amount
By taking ROI @10% pa, After 4 years C.I will be - Around 46.1% of amount

But after 5th year, S.I earned will become 60% of amount but C.I will be More than 60%..

i don't think we had to consider 9999 as it was clearly written exactly 3 same integers
