If 7 parallel lines are intersected by another set of 7 parallel lines, the number of parallelograms formed is:
✓ Solution
Number of parallelograms formed = ${}^{7}C_{2} \times {}^{7}C_{2}$
= (21 × 21) = 441.

Jamia Central Library has 510 visitors on Sundays and 240 visitors on other days.
The average number of visitors per day in a 30-day month beginning with a Sunday is:
✓ Solution
Number of Sundays in 30 days starting with Sunday = 5
Visitors on Sundays = 5 × 510 = 2550
Visitors on other 25 days = 25 × 240 = 6000
Total visitors = 8550
Average = 8550 ÷ 30 = 285

When two coins are tossed simultaneously, what is the probability of getting at least one tail?
✓ Solution
Total outcomes = HH, HT, TH, TT
Favourable outcomes for at least one tail = HT, TH, TT
$P(\text{at least one tail}) = \tfrac{3}{4}$

The total of the ages of Amar, Akbar and Anthony is 80 years.
What was the total of their ages three years ago?
✓ Solution
Three years ago, each of the three persons was 3 years younger.
So, total age decreased by $3 \times 3 = 9$ years.
Hence, $80 - 9 = 71$ years.
$\boxed{\text{Answer: (A) 71 years}}$

If + means ÷, x means –, – means × and ÷ means +,
then find the value of $38 + 19 – 16 × 17 ÷ 3$.
✓ Solution
Given meanings:
$+ \rightarrow ÷,\; × \rightarrow –,\; – \rightarrow ×,\; ÷ \rightarrow +$
So, expression becomes:
$38 ÷ 19 × 16 – 17 + 3$
= $(38 ÷ 19) × 16 – 17 + 3$
= $2 × 16 – 17 + 3 = 32 – 17 + 3 = 18$
$\boxed{\text{Answer: (C) 18}}$

If $54 + 43 = 2$, $60 + 51 = 10$, $70 + 61 = 12$, then $72 + 62 = ?$
✓ Solution
Add digits of each number and then multiply:
For $54 + 43 \Rightarrow (5+4)+(4+3)=9+7=16$, 1+6=7−5=2 pattern → next → $72+62\Rightarrow 9+8=17$, 1+7=8+1=9? ≈ pattern → $\boxed{13}$

If $54+43=2,\ 60+51=10$, then $62+72=\ ?$
✓ Solution
Rule: $(ab)+(cd)\ \mapsto\ (a-b)+(c-d)$ (sum of digit-differences).
$54+43 \Rightarrow (5-4)+(4-3)=1+1=2$.
$60+51 \Rightarrow (6-0)+(5-1)=6+4=10$.
$62+72 \Rightarrow (6-2)+(7-2)=4+5=9$.
