So,folks here are the correct answers Sentence Correction The correct answer is C. Both A and D are illogical. If the company did not produce new and daring plays, it would not be described as esoteric or liberal. And if it did, it would not be congenial or regressive. Only C makes sense, with provocative fitting well with the phrase though not the most popular. |

Problem Solving The correct answer is A. The difference in the amounts after 4 years and 8 years i.e. 1600 $ is the interest obtained in 4 years. Principal amount = 2460 - the interest obtained in 4 yrs = 2460 - 1600 = 860 $ Hence, option (A) Click here for the next week's Punch |
