Answers:

Directions (Q. 1 – 5):

Q1. Answer: c

Upstream speed of Sumita on Monday = 14 – 4 = 10 km/h

Time taken by Sumita to travel 210 km upstream on Monday = 200/10 = 21 hours

Downstream speed of Suman on Monday = 16 + 4 = 20 km/h

Time taken by Suman to travel 210 km downstream on Monday = 210/20 = 21/2 hours

Required percentage = [21/(21/2)] x 100 = [21*2/21]*100 = 200%

  1. Answer: a

Upstream speed of Sumita on:

Sunday = (14 – 4) = 10 km/h

Monday = (16 – 2) = 14 km/h

Tuesday = (12 – 6) = 6 km/h

Downstream speed of Suman on:

Sunday = (16 + 4) = 20 km/h

Monday = (18 + 2) = 20 km/h

Tuesday = (14 + 6) = 20 km/h

Upstream distance travelled by Sumita in 9 hours on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday together

= 10 x 9 + 14 x 9 + 6 x 9

= 90 + 126 + 54

= 270 km

Downstream distance travelled by Suman in 8 hours on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday together

= 20 x 8 + 20 x 8 + 20 x 8

= 160 + 160 + 160

= 480 km

Required difference = 480 – 270 = 210 km

  1. Answer: a

Downstream speed of Sumita on:

Wednesday = 10 + 3 = 13 km/h

Thursday = 8 + 2 = 10 km/h

Sum of downstream speeds of Sumita on Wednesday and Thursday = 13 + 10 = 23 km/h

Upstream speed of Suman on:

Friday = 20 – 4 = 16 km/h

Saturday = 8 – 5 = 3 km/h

Sum of upstream speeds of Suman on Friday and Saturday = 16 + 3 = 19 km/h

Required ratio = 23:19

  1. Answer: c

Upstream speed of Sumita on:

Sunday = (14 – 4) = 10 km/h

Monday = (16 – 2) = 14 km/h

Tuesday = (12 – 6) = 6 km/h

Wednesday = (10 – 3) = 7 km/h

Thursday = (8 – 2) = 6 km/h

Friday = (6 – 4) = 2 km/h

Saturday = (12 – 5) = 7 km/h

Upstream distance travelled by Sunita in 5 hours in all the days together

= 10 x 5 + 14 x 5 + 6 x 5 + 7 x 5 + 6 x 5 + 2 x 5 + 7 x 5

= 50 + 70 + 30 + 35 + 30 + 10 + 35

= 260 km

Upstream speed of Suman on:

Sunday = (16 – 4) = 12 km/h

Monday = (18 – 2) = 16 km/h

Tuesday = (14 – 6) = 8 km/h

Wednesday = (10 – 3) = 7 km/h

Thursday = (12 – 2) = 10 km/h

Friday = (20 – 4) = 16 km/h

Saturday = (8 – 5) = 3 km/h

Upstream distance travelled by Suman in 3 hours in all the days together

= 12 x 3 + 16 x 3 + 8 x 3 + 7 x 3 + 10 x 3 + 16 x 3 + 3 x 3

= 36 + 48 + 24 + 21 + 30 + 48 + 9

= 216 km

Required percentage = (260/216) x 100 = 120.37% = 120 %

  1. Answer: a

Downstream speed of Sumita on:

Sunday = (14 + 4) = 18 km/h

Tuesday = (12 + 6) = 18 km/h

Friday = (6 + 4) = 10 km/h

Required sum of the time = 360/18 + 360/18 + 360/10

= > 20 + 20 + 36

= > 76 hours

 

Directions (Q. 6 – 10)

  1. Answer: b

let C takes X hours to fill the cistern.

According to the question:

4/24 + 4/x + 5/x + 5/30 = 1

=> 1/6 + 9/x + 1/6 = 1

=> 2/6 + 9/x = 1

=> 1/3 + 9/x = 1

=> 9/x = 1-1/3

=> 9/x = 2/3

=> x = 27/2 hours

Hence, C can alone fill the cistern in 27/2 hours.

  1. Answer: d

let D should be closed after x hours.

x/30 + x/45 + 20/45 = 1

=> (3x+2x)/90 = 1-20/45

=> 5x/90 = (45-20)/45

=> x/18 = 25/45

=> x = 10 hours.

Hence, D should be closed after 10 hours.

 

  1. Answer: d

Let time taken by B to fill the cistern = 4x hours

Hence, time taken by F to fill the cistern = 2x hours

And time taken by C to fill the cistern = x hours

According to the question:

48/x + 48/2x + 48/4x = 1

=> (192 + 96 + 48)/4x = 1

=> 4x = 336

=> x = 336/4

=> x = 84 hours.

Hence, time taken by F to fill the cistern = 2 x 84 = 168 hours.

  1. Answer: b

part of the tank filled in 2 hours = 1/24 + 1/30 = 9/120

=>part of the tank filled in 2 x 13 hours = 9 x 13/120 = 117/120

Remaining part = 1 – 117/120 = 3/120

Since A is opened first, time taken by A to fill 3/120 part:

x/24 = 3/120

=> x = 3/5

Hence total time = 2 x 13 + 3/5 = 26(3/5) hours.

  1. Answer: a

let both the pipes can fill the cistern in x hours.

According to the question:

x/12 + x/(24 * 3) = 1

=> x/12 + x/72 = 1

=> (6x + x)/72 = 1

=> 7x/72 = 1

=> x = 72/7 hours.

Hence, both the pipes can fill the cistern in 72/7 hours.
