The World Trade Organization (WTO) was officially established on January 1, 1995, succeeding the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT). Therefore, 1995 is the correct year of establishment.

The 1956 Constitution of Pakistan required that the President must be a Muslim, while the Prime Minister could be non-Muslim. This condition was explicitly stated to ensure the head of state adhered to Islam, reflecting the country's Islamic identity at the time.

Twelve men take 6 hours, so total work = 12 × 6 = 72 man-hours. After 1 hour, 12 men complete 12 man-hours, leaving 60 man-hours. Now, 20 men work to finish 60 man-hours, so time = 60 ÷ 20 = 3 hours. However, the question asks how many more hours would 20 men take after the first hour, so the answer is 3 hours (option A). The original options have 3 as A, so correct answer is A, not C.

The UN Security Council is headquartered at the United Nations Headquarters in New York City, making option C the correct answer.

The word 'coerce' means to compel or force someone to do something. Among the options, 'Compel' is the synonym that best matches 'coerce'. 'Entice' and 'Coax' imply persuasion by attraction or gentle urging, which is different from coercion.

Let the four consecutive odd numbers be n, n+2, n+4, and n+6. Their sum is 4n + 12. Dividing by 10 gives (4n + 12)/10. For this to be a perfect square, (4n + 12) must be divisible by 10 and the quotient must be a perfect square. Rewrite the sum as (n-3)+(n-1)+(n+1)+(n+3) = 4n, where n is the average of the four numbers. Since the numbers are two-digit odd numbers, n ranges between 14 and 96. Dividing the sum by 10 gives 4n/10 = 2n/5. For this to be an integer perfect square, 2n must be divisible by 5, so n must be a multiple of 5/2, meaning n must be a multiple of 5 and even. Let n = 10m. Then the quotient is 4n/10 = 4(10m)/10 = 4m. For 4m to be a perfect square, m must be a perfect square. The possible values of m within the range give n = 40 or 90, corresponding to sums 160 and 360, which divided by 10 give 16 and 36, both perfect squares. The four numbers with average 40 are 37, 39, 41, 43. Among the options, 41 is included here. Testing the options: - For n=21: sum=21+23+25+27=96, 96/10=9.6 (not perfect square) - For n=25: sum=25+27+29+31=112, 112/10=11.2 (not perfect square) - For n=41: sum=41+43+45+47=176, 176/10=17.6 (not perfect square) - For n=67: sum=67+69+71+73=280, 280/10=28 (not perfect square) However, the average n=40 (numbers 37,39,41,43) gives sum=160, 160/10=16 (perfect square). Since 41 is one of these numbers, option C (41) is correct. Therefore, the correct answer is C (41).

If 10% of the workers were fired, then 90% remained. Given that 540 workers survived, we can set up the equation 0.9 × total_workers = 540. Solving for total_workers gives 540 ÷ 0.9 = 600 workers originally.

Option B is grammatically correct and fits the sentence structure properly: 'Our father advised us not to be sad as he thought that his decision would bring betterment in the long run.' The phrase 'not to be sad' correctly follows the verb 'advised' in reported speech.

The first person completes 1/10 of the work per day, and the second person completes 1/15 per day. Together, they complete 1/10 + 1/15 = 1/6 of the work per day, so they finish the work in 6 days.

The average speed for a round trip when distances are equal is given by the harmonic mean: 2 × (100 × 150) / (100 + 150) = 120 km/h. Hence, option D is correct.
