Answer to Q109

A man had 10⅔kg of onions and sold ⅔ of it. How much does he have left?

If 10kg is your answer, you are so wrong. The question didn't say he sold ⅔kg of the onions, he sold ⅔ of the entire onions.

So how much is ⅔ of 10⅔:
10⅔ = ³²⁄₃
⅔ of that
³²⁄₃ x ⅔
64 ÷ 9
= 7⅑

But wait, that's not what the question asked, the question was how much he had left, not how much he sold.

So how much he had left will be (10⅔ - 7⅑) or simply (⅓ of 10⅔) [you will arrive at the same answer either way].
so, ⅓ of 10⅔:
³²⁄₃ x ⅓
32 ÷ 9
= 3⁵⁄₉

Answer: 3⁵⁄₉

I spotted the error in the options after several people have voted so I decided to leave it in because whoever got the correct answer should know it was just an error.

Telegram Gives Up On Crypto Blockchain Project

Durov said on his Telegram channel today that the two and a half year blockchain and crypto project has been put to sleep. Ironically, after leaving Russia because the government wanted his encryption keys to his social media firm, Durov’s cryptocurrency idea lost steam because of a U.S. court. “The technology we created allowed for an open, free, decentralized exchange of value and ideas. TON had the potential to revolutionize how people store and transfer funds and information,” he wrote on his channel. “Unfortunately, a U.S. court stopped TON from happening.”

At a time when the Indian stock market is peaking and has rallied immensely compared to global markets, there are companies that have not performed in the last 10 years. These are definitely a minor portion of the market considering there are hundreds of stocks that have turned multibagger since 2020. What went wrong with these stocks? Reasons vary from corporate governance, sectoral weakness, company specific and so on. But the more important question is, are these stocks worth buying?
