A) 9 : 20 B) 11 : 9
C) 11 : 20 D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 11 : 9

Explanation:

In the same time, they cover 110 km and 90 km respectively.

Therefore, Ratio of their speeds = 110 : 90 = 11 : 9

Q:

A thief is noticed by a policeman from a distance of 200 m. The thief starts running and the policeman chases him. The thief and the policeman run at the rate of 10 km and 11 km per hour respectively. What is the distance between them after 6 minutes?

A) 100 m B) 150 m
C) 190 m D) 200 m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 100 m

Explanation:

Relative speed of the thief and policeman  =  (11 – 10) km/hr = 1 km/hr 

Distance covered in 6 minutes  = (1/60) x 6 km   = 1/10 km = 100 m

Therefore, Distance between the thief and policeman = (200 – 100) m = 100 m.

Q:

The distance between two cities A and B is 330 Km. A train starts from A at 8 a.m. and travel towards B at 60 km/hr. Another train starts from B at 9 a.m and travels towards A at 75 Km/hr. At what time do they meet?

A) 10 a.m B) 10.30 a.m
C) 11 a.m D) 11.30 a.m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 11 a.m

Explanation:

Suppose they meet x hrs after 8 a.m

then,

[Distance moved by first in x hrs] + [Distance moved by second in (x-1) hrs] = 330.

Therefore, 60x + 75(x-1) = 330.

 => x=3.

So,they meet at (8+3) i.e, 11a.m.

Q:

A man on tour travels first 160 km at 64 km/hr and the next 160 km at 80 km/hr. The average speed for the first 320 km of the tour is

A) 35.55 km/hr B) 36 km/hr
C) 71.11 km/hr D) 71 km/hr
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 71.11 km/hr

Explanation:

Total time taken    = (160/64 + 160/8)hrs
                           = 9/2 hrs.


Average speed    = (320 x 2/9) km.hr
                         = 71.11 km/hr.

A. 1                       B. 2                       C. 3                       D. 4

Answer

1. ANSWER : D 


Explanation - The ratio of imports to exports for the years 1998 and 1999 are 1.25 and 1.40 respectively. 


Let the exports in the year 1999 = Rs. x crores.  


Then, the exports in the year 1998 = Rs. (500 - x) crores. 


 250500-x = 1.25 => x = 300 crores      [ Using ratio for 1998 ]  


Thus, the exports in the year 1999 = Rs. 300 crores. 


 


Let the imports in the year 1999 = Rs. y crores.  


Then, Imports in the year 1999 = y300=1.4 => y = 420= Rs. 420 crores.


 


2. ANSWER : C


Explanation - The imports are minimum proportionate to the exports implies that the ratio of the value of imports to exports has the minimum value.


Now, this ratio has a minimum value 0.35 in 1997, i.e., the imports are minimum proportionate to the exports in 1997. 


 


3. ANSWER : D 


Explanation - The graph gives only the ratio of imports to exports for different years. To find the percentage increase in imports from 1997 to 1998, we require more details such as the value of imports or exports during these years. 


Hence, the data is inadequate to answer this question. 


 


4. ANSWER : B 


Explanation -  Ratio of imports to exports in the year 1996 = 0.85. 


Let the exports in 1996 = Rs. x crores. 


Then , 272x = 0.85 => x = 320  


Exports in 1996 = Rs. 320 crores.  


 


5. ANSWER : D  


Explanation - The exports are more than the imports imply that the ratio of value of imports to exports is less than 1.Now, this ratio is less than 1 in years 1995, 1996, 1997 and 2000. 


Thus, there are four such years.
