Here is an ancient problem from Bhaskaracharya's Lilavati:
A beautiful maiden, with beaming eyes, asks me which is the number that. multipied by 3 then increased by thre-fourths of the product. divided by 7 diminished by 52, the square root found,addition of 8, division by 10 gives the number 2?
Well, it sounds complicated, doesn't it? No, not if you know how to go about it.	Choose the correct choice:	A) 16	B) 22	C) 28	D) 29	E) 34
28   28   The method of working out this problem is to reverse the whole process--multiplying 2 by 10, deducting 8,squaring the result and so on.
