Correct Answer: 4 years

Solution :  

Let the time taken be $T$ years.
Simple Interest, Simple interest = $\frac{\text{Principal × Rate × Time}}{100}$
⇒ $81=\frac{450\times4.5\times T}{100}$
⇒ $T = \frac{81\times 100}{450\times 4.5} = 4$ years
Hence, the correct answer is 4 years.

Correct Answer: 14

Solution : Given: $(a+b+c)=17$ and $\left(a^2+b^2+c^2\right)=101$
We know that $(a+b+c)^2=a^2+b^2+c^2+2ab+2bc+2ac$
Squaring both sides, we get
⇒ $a^2+b^2+c^2+2ab+2bc+2ac=289$
⇒ $101+2ab+2bc+2ac=289$
⇒ $2ab+2bc+2ac=188$
Now, $(a-b)^2+(b-c)^2+(c-a)^2$
= $2a^2+2b^2+2c^2-2ab-2bc-2ac$
= $2\times101-188$
= $202-188=14$
Hence, the correct answer is 14.
