The price of one chair is Rs.4800 ÷ 6 = Rs.800. The table costs Rs.400 more, so Rs.1200. The difference is Rs.400, which is (400/800)*100 = 50% more than the chair price. The question asks by what percentage the chair price is less than the table price, which is (400/1200)*100 = 33.33%. However, none of the options match 33.33%. The options given (5000, 4000, 3000) seem unrelated to percentage values. Therefore, the question or options are incorrect. Assuming the question intended to ask by what percentage the table price is more than the chair price, the answer would be 50%. Since none of the options match this, the best approach is to correct the options to reflect the percentage difference. Correct options should be percentages, for example: A) 33.33%, B) 50%, C) 66.67%, D) None of these. The correct answer is A) 33.33% for chair price less than table price.

William Shockley, John Bardeen, and Walter Brattain invented the transistor at Bell Labs in 1947, which revolutionized the electronics industry by enabling smaller, more efficient electronic devices.

The phrase should read 'detracted from the otherwise sophisticated atmosphere,' meaning the rubber chicken reduced or lessened the sophistication of the living room. 'Detracted' is the correct verb here, as 'attracted' does not fit the context, and 'humble' is not appropriate as a verb or adjective in this sentence.

First, calculate 218% of 1674: (218/100) × 1674 = 3649.32. Then, set 3649.32 = x × 1800, so x = 3649.32 ÷ 1800 ≈ 2.0274. Since none of the options match this value, the original question seems to have a formatting or typographical error. Assuming the question intended to ask for the value of x in 218% of 1674 equals x% of 1800, then x ≈ 203, which is not among the options. However, if the question is interpreted as 218% of 1674 equals x times 1800, then x ≈ 2.0274, again not matching options. Given the options, none are correct, so 'None of these' (D) is appropriate. However, the question text is unclear and should be corrected for clarity.

The Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) passed away on 8 June 632 CE, which corresponds to 12 Rabi' al-Awwal in the Islamic calendar. This date is widely accepted by historians and Islamic scholars.

According to authentic Islamic hadiths found in Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, Prophet Adam (AS) was created with a height of sixty cubits, which is approximately 90 feet. It is also mentioned that people have been decreasing in stature since Adam's creation. This is a well-established narration in Islamic tradition, confirming that the height of 90 feet is the commonly accepted figure.

The sentence requires a word that fits the context of describing a pasta dish. None of the options 'Dujor', 'Abjure', or 'Secret' correctly fit the blank. 'Dujor' is not a recognized English word, 'Abjure' means to renounce, and 'Secret' does not fit grammatically here. Therefore, 'None of these' is the correct choice.

Historical records, including accounts from the Battle of Peshawar in 1001, confirm that Jayapala, the Hindu Shahi ruler, was defeated and captured by Mahmud Ghaznavi. Following his release, Jayapala immolated himself in a funeral pyre due to the humiliation of defeat. There is no credible historical evidence that Laalshah (Lalliya) immolated himself after defeat by Mahmud Ghaznavi. Thus, the correct answer is Jayapala.
