Q 2 - A has $3 more than B, but then B wins on the horses and trebles his money, so that he now has $2 more than the original amount of money that the two boys had between them. How much money did A and B have before B's win?

Let the number of 25 paise coins be x. Then number of 50 paise coins will be (75-x).
X × 0.25 + (75-X) × 0.50 = 25
0.25X + 37.50 - 0.50x = 25
0.25x = 12.50
X = 12.50/0.25 = 50
Q 7 - When Raghav Swain was born, his father Harivansh Swain was 32 years older than his brother Ranjit and his mother Urmila was 25 years older than his sister Sharmistha. If Ranjit is 6 years older than Rahul and Mrs Urmila Swain is 3 years younger than Mr. Harivansh, how old was Sharmistha when Rahul was born?
his father Harivansh’s age = ( 6 + 32 ) = 38 years.
His mother Urmila’s age = ( 38 - 3) years = 35 years.
His sister Sharmistha’s age = ( 35 - 25 ) years = 10 years.
