Answers with Explanation:

1. 4;  The constant present in the first week combination is either similar or different from the constant present in the second week combination. Hence we can’t find the expenditures of first and second weeks.
Hence data inadequate.

2. 1; Three tablets/day would mean the hypertensive has to be taken 90 times in 30 days.
    The increase is of Rs 2.50 for 10 tablets
             Hence increase will be of 2.50 × 9 = 22.50 for 90 tablets 
                    Asthmatic has to consume 30 tablets.
                    ∴ increase = 5.00 × 3 = 15.00
                    ∴ total increase = 22.50 + 15 = 37.50.


6.  c;  Take the Weighted average. 
                    Total number of boys=611
                    Total number of girls=145
                     So, Ratio of boys to girls= 611:145= 4.21:1≈4:1
