Q:

P is faster than Q. P and Q each walk 24 km. The sum of their speeds is 7 km/hr and the sum of times taken by them is 14 hours. Then, P's speed is equal to ?

A) 3 km/hr B) 4 km/hr
C) 5 km/hr D) 6 km/hr
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 4 km/hr

Explanation:

Let P's speed = x km/hr. Then, Q's speed = (7 - x) km/ hr.

 

So, 24/x + 24/(7 - x) = 14

 

x2 - 98x + 168 = 0

 

(x - 3)(x - 4) = 0 => x = 3 or 4.

 

Since, P is faster than Q,

 

so P's speed = 4 km/hr and Q's speed = 3 km/hr.

Q:

In a Class of 65 students and 4 teachers, each student got sweets that are 20% of the total number of students and each teacher got sweets that are 40% of the total number of students. How many sweets were there?

A) 845 B) 897
C) 949 D) 104
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 949

Explanation:

No. of  sweets each student get = 20% of 65 = 13

No. of sweets each teacher get = 40% of 65 = 26

No. of sweets distributed to 65 students =  13 × 65 = 845

No. of sweets distributed to 4 teachers = 4 × 26 = 104

Therefore, the total no. of sweets there = 845 + 104 = 949.
