Answers :

1) Answer: C

Speed of the boat = x

(150/(x – 20))/(150/(x + 20)) = 5/1

150/(x – 20) = 5 * 150/(x + 20)

5x – 100 = x + 20

4x = 120

x = 30 kmph


2) Answer: C

Distance travelled by Arav in 3 hours = 4 * 3 = 12 hours

Distance travelled by Ravi in 3 hours = 7 * 3 = 21 hours

Distance between both = 21 – 12 = 9 km

New speed of Arav = 4 * 2 = 8 kmph

New speed of Ravi = 7 – 2 = 5 kmph

Relative speed = 8 – 5 = 3 kmph

Total time = 3 + 9/3 = 6 hours


3) Answer: B

Speed of downstream = 24 + 16 = 40 km/hr

Speed of upstream = 24 – 16 = 8 km/hr

Let the distance travelled be x,

(x/40) + (x/8) = 24

= > x = 160 km

Total distance covered by a man in the whole journey = 160*2 = 320 km


4) Answer: A

Speed of the car = 1020/17 = 60 Km/h

Speed of the bus = 60 x 80/100 = 48 Km/h

Speed of the train = 48 + 32 = 80 Km/h

Required ratio = 60 x 20: 25 x 80

= 1200: 2000

= 3: 5


5) Answer: B

Time taken by the man to cover 240 Km by train = 240/48 = 5 hours

Time taken by the man to cover 60 Km by bus = 60/12 = 5 hours

Time taken by the man to cover 20 Km by bicycle = 20/5 = 4 hours

We know that

Average speed = Total distance/Total time

= (240 + 60 + 20)/(5 + 5 + 4)

= 320/14

= 22.85 Km/h


6) Answer: E

W + R = 7 ½ = (15/2) hours

W + W = 37/4

2W = 37/4

W = (37/8) hours

R = (15/2) – (37/8) = (23/8) hours

Time taken by the man to ride both the ways,

= > R + R = 2R = (23/8) * 2 = 23/4

= > 5 (¾) hours


7) Answer: A

Distance between Chennai and Bangalore = 400 km

Speed of bike = 60 kmph

Distance covers by bus = 400 * 30/100 = 120 km

Speed of bus = 120/3 = 40 kmph

Speed of train = 5/4 * 40 = 50 kmph

Distance covered by train = 30/100 * 400 = 120 km

Time taken by train = 120/50 = 2.4 hours


8) Answer: C

Total time taken by him = 5 hours 15 min = 5 15/60 = 5 1/4 hours

T = D/S

(x/4)/40 + (3x/4)/60 = 5 1/4

x/40 + 3x/60 = (21/4)*4

(3x + 6x)/120 = 21

9x = 21*120

x = (21*120)/9

x = 280 km


9) Answer: C

Distance = speed * time

Total distance = 2x + x = 3x

2x/40 + x/30 = 5

6x + 4x = 120 * 5

x = 60

Total distance = 3 * 60 = 180 km


10) Answer: B

Distance=speed * time

Distance=(20 * 25 * 15/60)/5

=25 km
