Let the length of the rod be p metres.
According to the question,p − 
p + p + p + p + p + p 
= 12.08 10 20 30 40 50 60 p 
1 − 
60 + 30 + 20 + 15 + 12 + 10 

= 12.08 600 p 
1 − 147 
= 12.08 600 p 
600 − 147 
= 12.08 600
Correct Option: A
Let the length of the rod be p metres.
According to the question,p − 
p + p + p + p + p + p 
= 12.08 10 20 30 40 50 60 p 
1 − 
60 + 30 + 20 + 15 + 12 + 10 

= 12.08 600 p 
1 − 147 
= 12.08 600 p 
600 − 147 
= 12.08 600 ⇒ p × 453 = 12.08 600 ⇒ p = 12.08 × 600 = 16 m. 453

Let the number be n.
∴ n − n = 100 7 11 ⇒ 11n − 7n = 100 11 × 7
⇒ 4n = 77 × 100
Correct Option: A
Let the number be n.
∴ n − n = 100 7 11 ⇒ 11n − 7n = 100 11 × 7
⇒ 4n = 77 × 100⇒ n = 77 × 100 = 1925 4
