Given that $n$ arithmetic means are inserted between two sets of numbers $(a, 2b)$ and $(2a, b)$, where $a, b \in \mathbb{R}$. Suppose the $m^{th}$ means between these sets are equal, then the ratio $a : b$ is equal to:

  • A
    $n-m+1 : m$
  • B
    $n-m+1 : n$
  • C
    $n : n-m+1$
  • D
    $m : n-m+1$

$A$ person is to count $4500$ currency notes. Let $a_n$ denote the number of notes he counts in the $n^{th}$ minute. If $a_1 = a_2 = \ldots = a_{10} = 150$ and $a_{10}, a_{11}, \ldots$ are in an $A.P.$ with common difference $-2$,then the time taken by him to count all notes is ............... $minutes$.
