Q:

Train K crosses a pole in 30 seconds and train L crosses the same pole in one minute and 20 seconds. The length of train K is three-fourths the length of train L. What is the ratio of the speed of train K to that of train L   ?

A) 1 : 3 B) 2 : 1
C) 3 : 1 D) 1 : 2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 2 : 1

Explanation:

Given that train K crosses a pole in 30 seconds and train L crosses the same pole in one minute and 15 seconds.

Let the length of train K be Lk and that of train L be Ll

given that Lk = 3/4 Ll

As the train K and L crosses the pole in 30 seconds and 80 seconds respectively,
=> Speed of train K = sk = Lk/30

Speed of train L = sl = Ll/80

Lk = 3/4 Ll
=> sk = 3/4 Ll/(30) = Ll/40

Ratio of their speeds = sk : sl
= Ll/40 : Ll/80

=> 1/40 : 1/80  =  2 : 1

Q:

Rishi bought 30 kg of sugar at the rate of Rs. 9 per kg and 45 kg of sugar at the rate of Rs. 10 per kg. He mixed both type of sugar and sold the mixture at the rate of Rs. 9.75 per kg. What was his gain or loss in the selling of whole sugar?

A) Rs. 10.75 B) Rs. 11.25
C) Rs. 12 D) Rs. 13.50
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 11.25

Explanation:

Total quantity of sugar = 45 + 30 = 75

Gain or loss can be calculated as

9.75 x 75 - (30 x 9 + 45 x 10)

= 731.25 - 720

= 11.25

 

Hence, in the overall transaction, Rishi got Rs. 11.25 gain.
