By car 240 km at 60 kmph
Time taken = 240/60 = 4 hr.

By train 240 km at 60 kmph
Time taken = 400/100 = 4 hr.

By bus 240 km at 60 kmph
Time taken = 200/50 = 4 hr.

So total time = 4 + 4 + 4 = 12 hr.
and total speed = 240+400+200 = 840 km
Average speed of the whole journey = 840/12 = 70 kmph.

The man has 12 sons and the 12 sons has each one sister.

=> 12 sons + 1 sister = 13 children.

Let A worked for x days.

x/21 + 4/28 = 1  => x = 18

A worked for 18 days. So, A can complete the remaining work in 18 - 4 = 14 days.

Let the pipe B be closed after 'K' minutes.

30/16 - K/24 = 1 => K/24 = 30/16 - 1 = 14/16

=> K = 14/16 x 24 = 21 min.

Let x and y be the two parts of 96.

x/7 = y/9 => x:y = 7:9

=> The smallest part is = 7/16 x 96 = 42.

16 : 56 :: 32 : ?

Let the required number be 'n'

The given numbers follow a logic that,

16/56 = 2/7

=> 32/n = 2/7

=> 32 x 7/2 = n

=> n = 112.

Hence, 16 : 56 :: 32 : 112.

One day work of 6 boys and 8 girls is given as 6b + 8g = 1/10 -------->(I)

One day work of 26 boys and 48 women is given as 26b + 48w = 1/2 -------->(II)

Divide both sides by 2 in (I) and then multiply both sides by 5

Now we get, 15b + 20g = 1/4.

Therefore, 15 boys and 20 girls can do the same work in 4 days.
