A) 8 hrs 45 min B) 8 hrs 42 min
C) 8 hrs D) 8 hrs 34 min
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 8 hrs 34 min

Explanation:

Number of pages typed by Adam in 1 hour = 36/6 = 6
Number of pages typed by Smith in 1 hour = 40/5 = 8
Number of pages typed by both in 1 hour = (6 + 8) = 14
Time taken by both to type 110 pages = (120 * 1/14) = 847 = 8 hrs 34 min.

Within the Solar System, four Jovian planets exist – Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Though these planets vary in terms of size, mass, and composition, they all share certain characteristics that cause them to differ greatly from the terrestrial planets located in the inner Solar System.

Q:

The ratio of K’s and M’s ages is 4: 5. If the difference between the present age of M and the age of K, 5 years hence is 3 years, then what is the difference and total of present ages of K and M?

A) 8, 72 yrs B) 16, 65 yrs
C) 12, 84 yrs D) 10, 60 yrs
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 8, 72 yrs

Explanation:

Let the present ages be K,M

Given K/M = 4/5

5K - 4M = 0 ......(1)

Also given that,

M - (K + 5) = 3

M - K = 8 .........(2)


Then, by solving (1) & (2)

M = 40 yrs and K = 32 yrs

Hence, Total of ages = 40 + 32 = 72 yrs

Difference of ages = 40 - 32 = 8 yrs.
