A man received a cheque. The amount in Rs. has been transposed for paise and vice versa. After spending Rs. 5 and 42 paise, he discovered he now had exactly 6 times the value of the correct cheque amount. What amount he should have received? Pick:	A) Rs 5.30	B) Rs 6.44	C) Rs 60.44	D) Rs 16.44	E) None of these
Explanation :   Option 4 :- on reversal will be 44Rs 16Ps, after spending 5Rs 42Ps, remaining will be around 40rs which is not 6 times 16Rs 44Ps.   Option 3 :- on reversal will lead a smaller value. Hence we can eliminate that as well.   Option 1 :- on reversal is 30Rs 5 Paise, after spending 5Rs 42Ps, remaining will be 24Rs 63Paise, 24Rs63Ps is not 6 times 5Rs30Paise.   Option 2 on reversal is 44Rs 06 Paise, after spending 5Rs 42Ps, remaining will be 38Rs 64Ps, which is 6 times 6Rs 44Paise. Hence Rs 6.44 is the answer.   We need not even consider option 4 and option 3 as reversed number itself is not 6 times the original number. Option 1 when reversed is odd, and when even (5Rs 42Ps) is subtracted from odd, we get a odd number, and an odd number cannot be 6 times another number   Answer : Rs 6.44
