Answer : 4. "72"
Explanation :

Answer: D) 72 Explanation: If number of visitors on 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th & 5th day are k, l, m, n & o respectively, thenk + l + m + n = 58 x 4 = 232 ---- (i) & l + m + n + o = 60 x 4 = 240 ---- (ii)Subtracting (i) from (ii), we get o-k = 8 ---(iii)Given, k/o = 8/9 ----(iv)So from (iii) & (iv), we geta = 64, e = 72Therefore, number of visitors on 5th day is 72.
