3. 12 litres of water a poured into an aquarium of dimensions 50cm length , 30cm breadth, and 40 cm height. How high (in cm) will the water rise?
(1 litre = 1000cm³)

A. 6
B. 8
C. 10
D. 20
E. 40

Solution : - 1. 4n+7 would give you a value greater then 1 and less than 200,
For -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...............48.
So total number of integers are 50 which satisfies the condition.

2. the 1st term is 1, 2nd is 5 and third is avg of last two i.e 3 and fourth is avg of last 3 i.e 3 and 5th is avg of last four i.e again 3 and all the remaining terms would also be 3. So the 25th term is 3.

3. The dimension of the _base_ are given as 50*40 and water will rise to a certain height in that aquarium, so let height be h
Now, the volume of the aquarium = l*b*h, implies 12000 = 50*40*h, implies 6cm.

1 .c 12- cause u count 2 sides and that covers 8 of the cubes...then 2 cubes on each face are unaccounted.. 8+4=12

2. b

3. C

4. e

5. a

6. C

7. b- 3

8. B: cross check plz
50x30x40= 60,000 cm3
total water poured- 12,000 cm3

thus height: 12 000/60 000 * 40 = 8cm
