Raja Ram Mohan Roy is considered as the pioneer of modern Indian Renaissance for the

remarkable reforms he brought in the 18th century India. Among his efforts, the abolition of the

sati-pratha-a practice in which the widow was compelled to sacrifice herself on the funeral pyre

of her husband-was the prominent. His efforts were also instrumental in eradicating the purdah

system and child marriage. In 1828, Ram Mohan Roy formed the Brahmo Samaj, a group of

people, who had no faith in idol-worship and were against the caste restrictions. The title 'Raja'

was awarded to him by Mughal emperor Akbar, the second in 1831 when Roy visited

England as an ambassador of the King to ensure that Bentick's regulation of banning the

practice of Sati was not overturned.

when a certain number successively divide by 5 and 7 leaves remainder 3 and 4 respectively. what

is the remainder ,if the same number is divided by 35.

a)21

b)23

c)24

D)29

let us suppose the number to be n...so n=5p+3(p is d quotient when divided by 5)....now p=7a+4(a is the quotient

when divided by 7)...now substituting the value of p in eqn 1 we get 5(7a+4)+3=n....n=35a+23......when u divide n by

35 u get 23 as remainder....

Ajay buys a car paying 25% of the amount as down payment and takes loan for the remaining

6000 as his first instalment. After paying instalments for two years, Ajay refinanced his remaining

loan amount at 6% annual interest rate for 3 years to be paid on easy monthly instalment. How

much money did Ajay pay as interest alone?

(A) Rs. 95235.7

(B) Rs. 102155.3

(C) Rs. 98000.0

(D) Rs. 104475.5

I think the answer will be C,

Total money he will be paying in 4 years with a monthly installment of 6000 is 288000 which is the amount

inclusive of interest This way the interest for 4 years comes up to 76236. In addition to this 6% annual interest for

3 years on the remaining sum is 144000 will be adding both the sum will 102155.3.

Google has had many logos since its renaming from BackRub. The current official Google logo was

designed by Ruth Kedar, and is a wordmark based on the Catull typeface.[1] The company also

includes various modifications and/or humorous features, such as cartoon modifications of their logo for

use on holidays, birthdays of famous people, and major events, such as the Olympics.[2] [3]These

special logos, some designed by Dennis Hwang, have become known as Google Doodles.

Google began in March 1996 as a research project by Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Ph.D. students

at Stanford University[2]

The name "Google" originated from a misspelling of "googol",[48][49]

which refers to

the number represented by a 1 followed by one-hundred zeros. Page and Brin write in their original paper

on PageRank:[50]

"We chose our systems name, Google, because it is a common spelling of googol, or

10100

and fits well with our goal of building very large-scale search engines."

If you take a marker and start from any corner of a cube, what is the maximum number of edges

you can trace if you never trace the same edge twice, never remove the marker from the cube and

never trace anywhere on the cube except for corners and edges?

MICAT 2004

rohan11590 Imagine one top corner of a cube. Start to your right. Cover the 4 edges in anti-clockwise

motion. Take the path down the edge through the same corner connecting the top face and bottom face

of the cube. Now, repeat the clockwise/anti-clockwise motion covering 4 more edges.

So, 4 + 1 + 4 = 9 edges in one go (adhering to the rules).
