8 years ago there were 5 members in the Arthur's family and then the average age of the family  was 36 years. Mean while Arthur got married and gave birth to a child. Still the average age of his family is same now. What is the age of his wife at the time of his child's birth was.If the difference between the age of her  child and herself was 26 years.

A) 25 years B) 26 years
C) 20 years D) can't be determined
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 26 years

Explanation:

Since we know that the difference b/w the age of any two persons remains always constant, while the ratio of their ages gets changed as the time changes.

 

so, if the age of his child be x (presently)

 

Then the age of  wife be x + 26 (presently)

 

Thus the total age = x + ( x + 26) = 32  [∵252-220 =32]

=> x = 3

Therefore, The age of her child is 3 years and her self  is 29 years. Hence her age at the time of the birth of her child was 26 years.

Q:

A train with 120 wagons crosses Arun who is going in the same direction, in 36 seconds. It travels for half an hour from the time it starts overtaking the Arun ( he is riding on the horse) before it starts overtaking the Sriram( who is also riding on his horse) coming from the opposite direction in 24 seconds. In how much time (in seconds) after the train has crossed the Sriram do the Arun meets to Sriram?

A) 3560 sec B) 3600 sec
C) 3576 sec D) can't be determined
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 3576 sec

Explanation:

Let the length of the train be L metres and speeds of the train Arun and Sriram be R, A and S respectively, then 

       LR-A=36 ---------- (i) 

and LR+K=24 ---------(ii)

 

From eq.(i) and (ii)

              3(R - A ) = 2 (R + K) 

⇒  R = 3A + 2K 

 

In 30 minutes (i.e 1800 seconds), the train covers 1800R (distance) but the Arun also covers 1800 A (distance) in the same time. Therefore distance between Arun and Sriram, when the train has just crossed Sriram

               = 1800 ( R - A) - 24 ( A + K)

 

 Time required = 1800(R-A)-24(A+K)(A+K)

 

= (3600 - 24) = 3576 s
