Explanation

To find 20% of 50% of 80:

First, find 50% of 80:

50% of 80 = (50/100) * 80 = 0.5 * 80 = 40

Then, find 20% of 40:

20% of 40 = (20/100) * 40 = 0.2 * 40 = 8

So, 20% of 50% of 80 is 8.

In the Tree of Rumour problem, one person passes the rumour to 2 other people every 5 minutes.

Therefore, the total number of people triples every 5 minutes.

0 minutes → 1 person

5 minutes → 3 persons

10 minutes → 9 persons

15 minutes → 27 persons

20 minutes → 81 persons

Using the formula:

3^20/5 =3^4 =81

Explanation

Let's calculate the population after 2 years:

Year 1:

Population = 50,000 + (4% of 50,000)

= 50,000 + 0.04 * 50,000

= 50,000 + 2,000

= 52,000

Year 2:

Population = 52,000 + (4% of 52,000)

= 52,000 + 0.04 * 52,000

= 52,000 + 2,080

= 54,080

The population after 2 years will be 54,080.

Explanation

Max marks each subject = 100, so total max = 100 + 100 + 100 = 300

Marks scored = 60% of 100 + 70% of 100 + 80% of 100  

= 60 + 70 + 80 = 210

Overall percentage = 210/300 × 100 = 70%
