In ancient India, squares and circular altars were used for household rituals.

The geometry of the Vedic period originated with the construction of altars (or vedis) and fireplaces for performing Vedic rites. Square and circular altars were used for household rituals, while altars, whose shapes were combinations of rectangles, triangles and trapeziums, were required for public worship.

Let the number be $x$.

Since,

$ \dfrac{x}{2}=12 $

$ x=24 $

Since,

$ \Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{4}\times 24 $

$ \Rightarrow 18 $

Hence, this is the answer.

Sonia talked to Shivani for $=\dfrac{1}{4}$ hour

Victor can throw a ball $=50\dfrac{3}{5}$ feet

Using the Ekadhik method for squaring numbers ending in 5: (n5)^2 = n(n+1) concatenated with 25. For 135, n=13, so 13 * 14 = 182, resulting in 18225.

For 35^2, n=3. Using Ekadhik, 3 * (3+1) = 3 * 4 = 12. Appending 25 gives 1225.

For 65^2, n=6. Using Ekadhik, 6 * (6+1) = 6 * 7 = 42. Appending 25 gives 4225.

Let the number be $x$. Then
$60$% of $\cfrac{3}{5}$ of $x=36$
$\Rightarrow$ $\cfrac{60}{100}\times \cfrac{3}{5}\times x=36$
$\Rightarrow$ $x=(36\times \cfrac{25}{9})=100$
$\therefore$ Required number $=100$

5/4 , 5/9
Difference of cross product = 45 - 20 = 25
If the difference of the cross product is positive then the first fraction is larger.
hence 5/4 is larger.

'Ekadhikena Purvena'   means  “by one more than the previous”
So, Ekadhikena Purvena of the number 37 is 38.
