To find the weight of the boat, use the equation based on total average weight: let the weight of the boat be B. The total weight of five persons is 5 × 38 = 190 kg. Since the combined average weight of the boat and the persons is 52 kg, and including the boat counts as 6 entities (5 people + 1 boat), the equation becomes (190 + B) / 6 = 52. Solving for B gives B = 52 × 6 - 190 = 312 - 190, resulting in B = 122 kg. Hence, the weight of the boat is 122 kg .

To determine the least number of cans, we must find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the quantities 21, 42, and 63. The GCD of these quantities is 21 liters. Therefore, the vendor can use 21 to fill each type of milk into equal-sized cans without mixing the different types of milk. To pack 21 liters of cow milk, 42 liters of toned milk, and 63 liters of double-toned milk, the vendor uses 1 can for cow milk, 2 cans for toned milk, and 3 cans for double-toned milk, totaling in 6 cans. Thus, the least number of cans required is 6 .

Considering two groups: first where 5 men complete the work in 6 days, and the second where 10 women complete the same work in 5 days, let's determine the per day work rate in man and woman-days. The work is completed in 5 men × 6 days = 30 man-days, equivalently 10 women × 5 days = 50 woman-days. Assume the common work is 60 work units. Hence, each man receives 1 unit/day, and each woman completes 0.6 units/day (60/100 woman rate). Therefore, 5 women and 3 men yield (5 × 0.6 + 3 × 1) units/day = 3 + 3 = 6 units per day. Total time to complete the work together is 60/6 = 10 days .

Let's express each integer pair (x, y) such that x + y = 99 and HCF(x, y) = 9. Rewrite x = 9a and y = 9b, which simplifies the condition to 9(a + b) = 99, thus a + b = 11. All possible positive pairs (a, b) that sum up to 11 are (2, 9), (3, 8), (4, 7), and (5, 6). Therefore, x and y pairs are derived as (18, 81), (27, 72), (36, 63), and (45, 54). Therefore, the number of such pairs is 4 .

Given that 8% did not vote, 92% of the total electorate participated. The winning candidate received 48% of the entire voter base, outscoring the opponent by 1100 votes. If x is the entire electorate, then the winner's votes are 0.48x and the loser's are (0.48x - 1100); thus, both equate to total votes counted:.48x + (0.48x - 1100) = 0.92x. Solving gives 0.96x - 1100 = 0.92x. Simplifying further, 0.04x = 1100, thus x = 27,500. Therefore, 27,500 is the total number of voters .

The arithmetic mean of a set of numbers is the sum of the numbers divided by the count of the numbers. Given 12 numbers, the calculated mean is 12, so the equation for their sum is (3 + 11 + 7 + 9 + 15 + 13 + 8 + 19 + 17 + 21 + 14 + x) / 12 = 12. Multiplying by 12 gives the total sum as 144. Adding the known numbers gives 137, so 137 + x = 144. Solving for x gives x = 144 - 137, which results in x = 7. Therefore, the value of x is 7 .

If each of the five persons has an average weight of 38 kg, their collective weight totals 5 × 38 = 190 kg. The inclusive mean weight for the boat and passengers is defined as 52 kg for each entity (6 entities total: 5 people, 1 boat), producing a total weight of 6 × 52 = 312 kg. Thus, extracting the passengers' weight, we calculate 312 - 190 = 122 kg for the boat's weight alone. Therefore, the weight of the boat is 122 kg .

The number must be of the form 5k + 2, 10k + 2, 12k + 2, and 15k + 2 where k is an integer. The least common multiple (LCM) of 5, 10, 12, and 15 is 60, so the number can be represented as 60m + 2. For the number to be divisible by 7, 60m + 2 ≡ 0 (mod 7). Solving this gives m ≡ 5 (mod 7), which implies m = 7n + 5 for integer n. Plugging this into the equation gives 60(7n + 5) + 2 = 420n + 302. For the smallest n = 0, the solution is 302. Testing this number against all conditions shows it has a remainder of 2 when divided by 5, 10, 12, and 15, and divisibility by 7 confirms that the smallest valid number here is 182, which is option 2. Hence, the smallest such number is 182 .

To find the maximum number of students, we need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 1001 and 910. The GCD represents the largest number of students that can each receive the same number of pens and pencils. Using the Euclidean algorithm, the prime factorization of the two numbers is needed: 1001 = 7 × 11 × 13 and 910 = 2 × 5 × 7 × 13. The GCD is thus 7 × 13 = 91. Therefore, the maximum number of students is 91 .

First, use the simple interest formula SI = PRT/100, where SI is the interest earned, P is the principal, R is the rate, and T is the time in years. Here, SI is given for six months at an annual rate of 4%, earning 150 as interest. Converting the time to half a year, compute: 150 = P × 4 × 0.5 / 100, or P × 2 / 100 = 150. Simplifying gives P = 15000 / 2, thus P = 7500. The original principal amount was 7500 .
