if it is divided by 8, the remainder is 7.
6. A giraffe lives in an area shaped in the form of a right-angled triangle. The base and the height of the triangle are 12 m and 16 m respectively. The area is surrounded by a fence. The giraffe can eat the grass outside the fence at a maximum distance of 2 m. What is the maximum area outside the fence, in which the grass can be eaten by the giraffe?
7. Mary and Peter are running around a circular track of 400 m. Mary’s speed equals 3/5 of Peter’s. They start running at the same point and the same time, but in opposite directions. 200 seconds later, they have met four times. How many metres per second does Peter run faster than Mary?
8. Evaluate
9. A, B and C are stamp-collectors. A has 18 stamps more than B. The ratio of the number of stamps of B to that of C is 7:5. The ratio of the sum of B’s and C’s stamps to that of A’s is 6:5. How many stamps does C have?
