A certain homeowner uses a gas edger to clean up his lawn every time he mows. If the edger uses 160 milliliters of fuel each time, what is the maximum number of times the homeowner can edge his lawn with 8 litres of fuel?( 1 liter = 1,000 milliliters)

Another band of loyalist join them in the morning, taking the total to 60 followers. For breakfast, they decide to have bamboo sticks. Unfortunately, he has only 47 bamboo sticks, all of them identical cylinders. Anxious to evenly distribute the 47 sticks amongst them- selves, Tintin decides to cut the sticks with his sword. What is the minimum number of times that Tintin has to use his sword to share the 47 bamboo sticks between all 60 of them, know- ing that each of them must receive identical parts. Note : A sword can be used to break mutliple sticks at a time.

After receiving the lamp, Aladdin and Abu are on their way to get out from the cave when they found a statue of Sir Hussain, one of the most powerful Royal General to walk on Earth. Below the statue is written a real life problem that Sir Hussain solved and in order to get out of the cave one must solve this riddle. Aladdin out of options starts reading the riddle- Once upon a time in the Kingdom far far away lived Sir Hussain, the chief Royal General. He was very proud of his men and he liked to invite the King to come and watch drill exer- cises which demonstrated the fighting techniques and tactics of the squad he was in charge of. But time went by and one-day Sir Hussain had a major argument with an old witch (there were rumours that the argument occurred after the general spoke badly of the witch flying techniques. That seemed to hurt the old witch very deeply). As the result of the argument, the witch put a rather strange curse upon the general. It sounded all complicated and quite harmless: "If the squared distance between some two soldiers equals to 5, then those soldiers will conflict with each other!" The drill exercises are held on a rectangular n × m field, split into nm square 1 × 1 segments for each soldier. Thus, the square of the distance between the soldiers that stand on squares (x_(1), y_(1)) and (x_(1),y_(2)) equals exactly (x_(1)-x_(2))^(2)+(y_(1)-y_(2))^(2) . Now not all nm squad soldiers can partici- pate in the drill exercises as it was before the old witch curse. Unless, of course, the general wants the soldiers to fight with each other or even worse. For example, if he puts a soldier in the square (2, 2), then he cannot put soldiers in the squares (1, 4), (3, 4), (4, 1) and (4, 3) — each of them will conflict with the soldier in the square (2, 2). Find the sum of maximum number of soldiers that can be simultaneously positioned on this field for each of the following cases i) 53 xx 81 II) 2 xx 103 III) 1 xx 104

To earn his wand, Harry was given 4 ropes and a lighter. Each rope burns at a non-con- stant rate but takes exactly one hour to burn completely from one end to the other. Harry can only light the ropes at either of their ends but can decide when to light each end as he sees fit. The goal is to use the ropes to measure time. For example, the time taken to burn one rope if burnt from only one end is 1 hour. So 1 hour can be measured using the ropes. Similarly, at max, how many lengths of time can be measured using these ropes? The right answer earns him his wand.

A person trying to lose weight by burning fat lifts a mass of 10 kg up to a height of 1m 1000 times. Assume that the potential energy lost each time he lowers the mass is dissipated. How much fat will he use up considering the work done only when the weight is lifted up ? Fat supplies 3.8xx10^7J of energy with a 20% effciency rate.Take g=9.8m//s^2

A milkman cheats his customers by adding water to the milk he sells. He starts the day with 1000 litres of milk. However, after selling every 500 litres of milk, he adds an equal quantity of water to what he already has. The milkman can get away by cheating as long as the milk to water ratio does not fall below 1 : 7. Each customer brings exactly 2 litres of milk a day (except for the first 100 who buy 5 litres each). The total number of customers the milkman has cheated if he ends up selling all the milk is :

In a certain code, the symbol for 0 (zero) is @ and for 1 is $. There are no other symbols for all other numbers greater than one. The numbers greater than 1 are to be written only by using the two symbols given above. The value of the symbol for 1 doubles itself every time it shifts one place to the left. Study the following examples : '0' is written as @ '1' is written as $ '2' is written as $@ '3' is written as $$ '4' is written as $@@ and so on What is the value of [(8 + 16) div (4 xx 3)]3 ?
