A) 83.5 km/hr B) 84.5 km/hr
C) 86.5 km/hr D) 87.5 km/hr

So speed of first train is 12.5*7 = 87.5 km/hr

Q:

Two brother X and Y appeared for an exam. The probability of selection of X is 1/7 and that of B is 2/9. Find the probability that both of them are selected.

A) 1/63 B) 1/14
C) 2/63 D) 1/9
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 2/63

Explanation:

Let A be the event that X is selected and B is the event that Y is selected.

P(A) = 1/7,  P(B) = 2/9.

Let C be the event that both are selected.

P(C) = P(A) × P(B) as A and B are independent events: 

       = (1/7) × (2/9)  = 2/63

Q:

A works twice as fast as B.If  B can complete a work in 18 days independently,the number of days  in which A and B can together finish the work is:

A) 4 days B) 6 days
C) 8 days D) 10 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 6 days

Explanation:

Ratio of rates of working of A and B =2:1. So, ratio of times taken =1:2

Therefore, A's 1 day's work=1/9 

B's 1 day's work=1/18 

(A+B)'s 1 day's work= 1/9 + 1/18 = 1/6

so, A and B together can finish the work in 6 days
