If u can help to solve it

Today i received an interesting question through SMS. It looked simple in first glance but actually it proved to be tricky. I invite you to solve the following situation.

Problem
Person A took loan of Rs 1000 and 500 from his friends B and C respectively.
Later A payed 1000 to some one else.
Out of remaining 500 A gave back 100 each to B and C.
And also purchased some goods of Rs 300.
Now person A has to pay 900 (1000-100) to B and 400 (500-100) to C.
It makes 900 + 400 = 1300. On the other hand person A has purchased goods of 300.
The total goes to 1600 (1300 + 300).
While the total was expected to be 1500, the amount which was borrowed.

So could u help to solve the equation that why amount exceeds to 1600?

Which are you? (A story highlighting the difference of effect)

A girl went to her mother and told her about her life and how things were so hard for her. She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved, a new one arose.
Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots came to boil. In the first she placed carrots, in the second she placed eggs, and in the last she placed ground coffee beans. She let them sit and boil; without saying A word.
In about twenty minutes she turned off the burners. She fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl. She pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl.

Interesting facts about table of 9

9 * 1 = 09 and also 0 + 9 = 9
9 * 2 = 18 and also 1 + 8 = 9
9 * 3 = 27 and also 2 + 7 = 9
9 * 4 = 36 and also 3 + 6 = 9
9 * 5 = 45 and also 4 + 5 = 9
9 * 6 = 54 and also 5 + 4 = 9
9 * 7 = 63 and also 6 + 3 = 9
9 * 8 = 72 and also 7 + 2 = 9
9 * 9 = 81 and also 8 + 1 = 9
9 * 10 = 90 and also 9 + 0 = 9

After 10, 11 would give 18 and onwards to 12 same formula would be applied.

9 * 11 = 99 and also 9 + 9 = 18
9 * 12 = 108 and also 1 + 0 + 8 = 9
9 * 13 = 117 and also 1 + 1 + 7 = 9
9 * 14 = 126 and also 1 + 2 + 6 = 9
9 * 15 = 135 and also 1 + 3 + 5 = 9
9 * 16 = 144 and also 1 + 4 + 4 = 9
9 * 17 = 153 and also 1 + 5 + 3 = 9
9 * 18 = 162 and also 1 + 6 + 2 = 9
9 * 19 = 171 and also 1 + 7 + 1 = 9
9 * 20 = 180 and also 1 + 8 + 0 = 9

After 20, 21 and 22 would give 18. Onwards to 23 same formula would be applied.
Same pattern would go up to infinity. It is amazing and math is elegant as art and sophisticated as science.

Today is the best day of my life


"Today is the best day of my life", this phrase should be the first thinking and feeling every day we wake up. There are too many reasons for it. Fresh air that you feel and breath, soft voice of your parents/children, opportunity to make better many tasks that were pending, a new day to read your favorite book or to visit web, a new chance to follow right path ordered by Allah almighty and your chances to have new challenges.
All these things motivate and tend you to claim that "Today is the best day of my life". And believe it that a day with this phrase would actually turn to a best day of your live.

Challenge you

I came across an interesting situation when tried this simple task. I put this challenge to my blog readers.
  • Sit down on seat
  • Lift your right leg
  • Start rotating your right foot clock-wise
  • Also lift your right arm now
  • And start drawing circle in anti clock-wise direction through your right hand
The challenge is that you can not rotate the right foot clock-wise and right hand anti clock-wise at the same time. Your foot will automatically change the direction to anti clock-wise. Its amazing and it is a proof that how much man is helpless in case of built-in instincts and restrictions.
