Coder Khan went to Cipher Singh to find out how far 10 different cities were from his home town. Cipher Singh wrote the following on a piece of paper. Madurai – 100, Kolkata – 600, Bangalore – 700, Aurangabad – 500, Varanasi – 400, Chandigarh – 1500, Delhi – 500, Ahmedabad – 700, Hyderabad – 1200, Mumbai – Cipher Singh deliberately missed out Mumbai to harass Coder Khan. A confused Coder Khan went to Riddle Baba for help. Their conversation was as follows: CK: I need help RB: I’ll give you two clues. Your first is – “I am a three digit number. I am twice a square and half of a square”. If you get this number, come to me and pay me one-and-a-half times this number. CK: But Baba, what about the second clue? RB: The amount that you pay me is, in fact, your second clue. Armed with these two clues, help Coder Khan find the distance between his home town and Mumbai. |
