Answers:
Directions (1-5):
1) Answer: e)
Downstream speed of boat A= 135/9= 15 km/hr
Let the speed of boat A be x
So,
x +2= 15
x= 13kmph
Upstream distance travelled by boat A= 135*2/5= 54km
Upstream speed of boat A= 13-2= 11km/hr
Time taken to travel upstream= 54/11= 4(10/11) hour
2) Answer: b)
Upstream speed of boat C= 12 – 4= 8km/hr
Distance travelled upstream= 8*8= 64km
Downstream distance travelled by boat C= 64*7/4= 112km
Speed downstream= 12+4= 16km/hr
Time taken to travel downstream= 112/16= 7 hours
3) Answer: c)
Speed of boat F downstream= 18+4= 22 km/hr
Speed upstream= 18 – 4= 14 km/hr
Now,
x/ 14 = (x+20) / 22
22x= 14x+280
8x= 280
x = 35km
4) Answer: e)
Let the speed of boat B and E be x
Upstream speed of boat B= x-6
Upstream speed of boat E= x-3
So,
8(x-6) + 8(x-3) = 120
8x – 48 + 8x – 24= 120
16x–72= 120
16x= 192
x = 12km/hr
So,
Downstream speed of boat E= 12+3= 15km/hr
Time taken to travel downstream 165km= 165/15= 11 hours.
5) Answer: d)
Let the speed of the current for boat D be x
Upstream speed= 14-x
Downstream speed= 14+x
So,
(14 – x) / (14+x) = 2/5
70-5x = 28+2x
42 = 7x
x = 6km/hr
Upstream distance travelled by boat D= 64*5/8= 40km
Upstream speed of boat D= 14-6= 8km/hr
Time taken= 40/8= 5 hours.
Directions (6-10):
6) Answer: a)
The total number of arts graduates in company A and C together
= > 1000*(30/100) + 1200*(28/100)
= > 300 + 336 = 636
The total number of Science graduates in company B and D together
= >256*(100/32)*(25/100) + 1450*(36/100)
= > 200 + 522 = 722
Required ratio = 636 : 722 = 318 : 361
 7) Answer: d)
The total number of commerce graduates in company A, C and E together
= > [(1000*(32/100) + 1200*(30/100) + (1000/5)*8*(44/100)]
= > [320 + 360 + 704] = 1384
 8) Answer: b)
The total number of commerce graduates in company C and E together = 1064
Total number of commerce graduates in company C
= > 1200*(30/100) = 360
Total number of commerce graduates in company E
= > 1064 – 360 = 704
According to the question,
(44/100)*Total employees in company E = 704
Total employees in company E = 704*(100/44) = 1600
9) Answer: c)
Total number of commerce and arts graduates in company A
= > 1000*(62/100) = 620
Total number of commerce and arts graduates in company E
= > (448/28)*100*(72/100) = 1152
Required % = (620/1152)*100 = 53.819 % = 54 %
 10) Answer: a)
The total number of science graduates in company A and B together
= >1000*(38/100) + (344/43)*100*(25/100)
= > 380 + 200 = 580
Total number of commerce graduates in company C
= > 696 – 1200*(28/100)
= > 696 – 336 = 360
The total number of commerce graduates in company C and D together
= >360 + 1450*(32/100)
= > 360 + 464 = 824
Required difference = 824 – 580 = 244
