\nCulture is defined as a people\u2019s way of life. It entails how they dress, how they speak, the type of food they eat, the manner in which they worship, and their art among many other things.
\nIndian culture, therefore, is the Indian\u2019s way of life. Because of the population diversity, there is immense variety in Indian culture. The Indian culture is a blend of various cultures in the world. India had an urban civilization even during the Bronze age. The Indus Valley Civilization (Harappan Civilization) dates back to 3300 BC – 1300 BC. Distinct cultures different from each other co-exist together in a single country. Thus, in India, there is unity amidst vast cultural diversity. The way people live in India is reflected in its culture.
\nUnity in Diversity: India is a land of unity in diversity where people of different sects, caste and religion live together. India is also called the land of unity in diversity as different groups of people co-operate with each other to live in a single society. Unity in diversity has alo become the strength of India.
\nSecularism: The word secularism means equality, impartiality, etc, towards all religion. India is a secular country, which means, equal treatment of all the religions present in India.
\nTraditions: traditional cultural values
\n1) Touching feet of elders: Indian tradition has rich cultural values. In India, younger show great respect to their elders. They touch the feet of their elders daily after waking up and especially on the festive occasionally on the festive occasions or before starting an important work.
\n2) Namaste: The gesture of the Namaste greeting is also part of the Indian culture. People greet each other by saying \u201cNamaste\u201d while joining their hands. \u201cNamaste means \u201cHello\u201d. (Also read. The meaning of Namaste here.)
\n3) Most Indians have a habit of shaking their heads while talking.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cracku.in\/media\/uploads\/181016.png\")

\nThe Teacher said to his students, \u201cA friend in need is a friend indeed.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nThat was ____ important discussion.<\/p>\n
\nPick of the basket<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cracku.in\/media\/uploads\/DI%203%20MTS.JPG\")
<\/figure>\n
\nGiven, $\\dfrac{x+x+2+x+4}{3} = 4$
\n\u21d2 3x+6 = 12
\n\u21d2 3x = 6 \u21d2 x = 2
\nTherefore, Age of the youngest child = x = 2 years.<\/p>\n
\nSum=129
\nAverage=129\/10
\n=12.9<\/p>\n
\n7=7+0!
\n8=8+1!
\n9=9+2!
\n10=10+3!
\n11=11+4!<\/p>\n
\nHence, option A is the correct answer.<\/p>\n
\nTime=distance\/speed
\nLet total distance=x
\nTime taken for one fourth distance=(x\/4)\/20=x\/80
\nTime taken for half the distance=(x\/2)\/40=x\/80
\nTime taken for the other one fourth=(x\/4)\/10=x\/40
\nTotal time=4x\/80
\n=x\/20
\nAverage speed=(x)\/(x\/20)
\n=20 km\/hr<\/p>\n
\nMy niece\u2019s sister\u2019s only sibling will be Niece herself.
\nHence, Option B is the correct answer.<\/p>\n
\nLet the radius of the sphere = r m
\n$\\dfrac{4}{3} \\times \\dfrac{22}{7} \\times r^3 = 4851$
\n=> $r^3 = \\dfrac{21^3}{2^3} => r = \\dfrac{21}{2}$
\nSurface area $= 4 \\times \\dfrac{22}{7} \\times \\dfrac{21}{2} \\times \\dfrac{21}{2} = 1386 m^2$<\/p>\n
\n(78+30)\/9 =12
\n(86+26)\/8=112\/8 =14<\/p>\n
\nNumber of runs scored by Rohit in Tests = 1200 runs
\nTherefore, Required ratio = 900 : 1200 = 3 : 4<\/p>\n
\nA=1+1
\nL=12+1
\nE=5+1
\nN=14+1
\nSimilarly IMPAL is also coded as 101417213 and so code for LENIN is
\nL=12+1
\nE=5+1
\nN=14+1
\nI=9+1
\nN=14+1
\n136151015 is the answer.<\/p>\n
