To find the percentage of Soma's monthly salary that goes towards EMI, we first need to calculate her monthly salary from her given yearly income. Then, we can use the formula for percentage to determine the required value.
Therefore, 24% of her monthly salary goes towards EMI.
A) 24 is the correct answer. The calculation shows that 24% of Soma's monthly income is used for EMI payments.

4252 - 4242 =?
This problem can be solved by recognizing the algebraic identity for the difference of squares, \(a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)\). This method is much faster and less prone to errors than calculating the squares of large numbers individually.
Thus, \(425^2 - 424^2 = 849\).
Correct Option: D) 849
The value of \(\frac{\sqrt{45}\times\sqrt{20}}{\sqrt{12}\times\sqrt{3}}\) is:
To simplify the given expression, we will use the property of square roots that \(\sqrt{a} \times \sqrt{b} = \sqrt{a \times b}\) and \[\frac{\sqrt{a}}{\sqrt{b}} = \sqrt{\frac{a}{b}}\]. We will simplify the terms under the square root by finding their prime factors and then combine them.
Correct Option: D) 5
The question asks about the organ responsible for the rhythmic muscle contractions leading to childbirth. This involves understanding the primary function of each part of the female reproductive system listed in the options during parturition (childbirth).
Correct Option: C) The uterus is a muscular organ that undergoes strong, rhythmic contractions (labor pains) to push the baby out of the mother's body during childbirth. These contractions are essential for the expulsion of the fetus.
This problem can be solved using the principle of inclusion-exclusion for two sets, or by simply calculating the number of students playing each game exclusively and then finding the total for Kho-Kho.
Identify the given information:
Calculate the number of students who play only Kabaddi:
\[ \text{Only Kabaddi} = \text{Students playing Kabaddi} - \text{Students playing both} \] \[ \text{Only Kabaddi} = 78 - 18 = 60 \]Calculate the number of students who play only Kho-Kho:
Since everyone plays at least one game, the total number of students is the sum of those who play only Kabaddi, only Kho-Kho, and both games.
\[ \text{Total Students} = (\text{Only Kabaddi}) + (\text{Only Kho-Kho}) + (\text{Both}) \] \[ 150 = 60 + (\text{Only Kho-Kho}) + 18 \] \[ 150 = 78 + (\text{Only Kho-Kho}) \] \[ \text{Only Kho-Kho} = 150 - 78 = 72 \]Calculate the total number of students who play Kho-Kho:
Students who play Kho-Kho include those who play only Kho-Kho and those who play both games.
\[ \text{Total Kho-Kho} = (\text{Only Kho-Kho}) + (\text{Both}) \] \[ \text{Total Kho-Kho} = 72 + 18 = 90 \]Calculate the percentage of students who play Kho-Kho:
\[ \text{Percentage} = \frac{\text{Number of students playing Kho-Kho}}{\text{Total number of students}} \times 100 \] \[ \text{Percentage} = \frac{90}{150} \times 100 \] \[ \text{Percentage} = \frac{3}{5} \times 100 \] \[ \text{Percentage} = 0.6 \times 100 = 60\% \]Correct Option: A) 60%
The question asks to identify the emblem of the Communist Party of India (CPI) from the given options. This requires knowledge of the symbols associated with major political parties in India.
C) Corn and Sickle is the emblem of the Communist Party of India (CPI). The corn represents the peasantry, and the sickle represents the working class, symbolizing the unity of these two groups.
The question asks about the Ministry responsible for preparing fiscal policy in the Government of India. Fiscal policy involves decisions about government spending and taxation to influence the economy. We need to identify which Ministry is primarily tasked with these financial and economic matters.
Correct Option: B) The Ministry of Finance is the central authority responsible for the financial administration of the Government of India. It formulates and implements fiscal policy, prepares the Union Budget, manages public finance, and oversees taxation, expenditure, and economic affairs. Therefore, it is directly responsible for preparing fiscal policy.
To find the angle between the hour hand and the minute hand, we need to calculate the angular position of each hand relative to the 12 o'clock mark at the given time. The difference between these positions will give us the angle. We will then choose the smaller of the two possible angles (since there are always two angles between the hands).
The minute hand completes a full circle (360°) in 60 minutes. So, its speed is \( \frac{360^\circ}{60 \text{ min}} = 6^\circ \) per minute.
At 2:41 pm, the minute hand is at 41 minutes past the hour.
\[ \text{Angle of minute hand} = 41 \text{ min} \times 6^\circ/\text{min} = 246^\circ \]The hour hand completes a full circle (360°) in 12 hours. So, its speed is \( \frac{360^\circ}{12 \text{ hours}} = 30^\circ \) per hour.
It also moves as the minutes pass. Its speed is \( \frac{30^\circ}{60 \text{ min}} = 0.5^\circ \) per minute.
At 2:41 pm, the hour hand has moved past the 2 o'clock mark. Its position can be calculated as:
\[ \text{Angle of hour hand} = (2 \text{ hours} \times 30^\circ/\text{hour}) + (41 \text{ min} \times 0.5^\circ/\text{min}) \]\[ \text{Angle of hour hand} = 60^\circ + 20.5^\circ = 80.5^\circ \]The absolute difference between the angles of the two hands is:
\[ \text{Difference} = |\text{Angle of minute hand} - \text{Angle of hour hand}| \]\[ \text{Difference} = |246^\circ - 80.5^\circ| = 165.5^\circ \]There are two angles formed by the hands: the one we just calculated and its reflex angle. The smaller angle is the one less than or equal to 180°.
If the calculated difference is greater than 180°, subtract it from 360° to get the smaller angle.
In this case, \(165.5^\circ\) is less than 180°, so it is the smaller angle.
B) 165.5° is the smaller angle made by the hour hand and minute hand at 2:41 pm.
