Q:

Chennai express left Hyderabad for Chennai at 14 : 30 hours, travelling at a speed of 60 kmph and Charminar Express left Hyderabad for Chennai on the same day at 16 : 30 hours, travelling at a speed of 80 kmph. How far away from Hyderabad will the two trains meet? 

A) 360 kms B) 480 kms
C) 520 kms D) 240 kms
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 480 kms

Explanation:

Now, the distance covered by Chennai express in 2 hrs = 60 x 2 = 120 kms

Let the Charminar Express takes 't' hrs to catch Chennai express

=> 80 x t = 60 x (2 + t)

=> 80 t = 120 + 60t

=> t = 6 hrs

 

Therefore, the distance away from Hyderabad the two trains meet = 80 x 6 = 480 kms.

Q:

A shopkeeper sells two articles at Rs.1000 each, making a profit of 30% on the first article and a loss of 20% on the second article. Find the net profit or loss that he makes ?

A) 0.85 % B) 0.95 %
C) 1.0 % D) 1.3 %
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 0.95 %

Explanation:

SP of first article = 1000
Profit = 30%
CP = (SP)x[100/(100+P)] = 10000/13

SP of second article = 1000
Loss = 20%
CP = (SP)x[100/(100-L)] = 5000/4 = 1250

Total SP = 2000

Total CP = 10000/13 + 1250 = 2019.23

CP is more than SP, he makes a loss.

Loss = CP-SP = 2019.23 - 2000 = 19.23
Loss Percent = [(19.23)/(2019.23)]x100 = 0.95 %.
