  1. 3) 238.
    solution: (2, 2*3+1=7, 7*3+3=24, 24*3+5=77, so 77*3+7= 238.

    4) 750*15+750*12= 20250

    11) PCCKJ (the first letter is 2 letters less than the letter in the original word.
    T is R in the given example. RST.)

    25) $1.53. (15% of $1.8= $0.27)

    31) let distance from the spot be x, then time required to go there=x/40, and to come back=x/30
    so x/40 + x/30= 8 hours,
    solving, x= 137.14 miles
