Q:

A train overtakes two girls who are walking in the  opposite direction in which the train  is going at the rate of 3 km/h and 6km/h and passes them completely in 36 seconds and 30 seconds respectively. The length of the train is:

A) 120m B) 150m
C) 125m D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 150m

Explanation:

Let the length of the train e x meter, and let the speed of train be y km/h, then

x=y+3×518×36   --------(1)   and   

x=y+6×518×30  ---------(2)

  

From eq (1) and (2), we get      

y = 12 km/h

Therefore,  x=(y+3)×518×36   =>  x= 150 m

Q:

Six years ago Anita was P times as old as Ben was. If Anita is now 17 years old, how old is Ben now in terms of P ?

A) 11/P + 6 B) P/11 +6
C) 17 - P/6 D) 17/P
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 11/P + 6

Explanation:

Let Ben’s age now be B

Anita’s age now is A.

(A - 6) = P(B - 6)

But A is 17 and therefore 11 = P(B - 6)

11/P = B-6

(11/P) + 6 = B
