Q:

The respective ratio between the speed of a bike, a van  and lorry is 3 : 5 : 2. The speed of the van is 250 percent of the speed of the lorry which covers 360 km in 12 hours. What is the average speed of the bike and the van together?

A) 60 kmph B) 62 kmph
C) 64 kmph D) 63 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 60 kmph

Explanation:

Speed of lorry = 36012 = 30 kmph

Speed of van =250100 x 30 = 75 kmph

Speed of bike = 35 x 75 = 45 kmph

Therefore, now required average speed of bike and van  = 75 + 452= 60 kmph.

Q:

From a container of wine, a thief has stolen 15 litres of wine and replaced it with same quantity of water. He again repeated the same process. Thus, in three attempts the ratio of wine and water became 343 : 169. The initial amount of wine in the container was:

A) 75 litres B) 100 litres
C) 150 litres D) 120 litres
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 120 litres

Explanation:

wine(left)wine(added) = 343169

 

It means  wine(left)wine(initial amount) = 343512    (since 343 + 169 = 512)

  

Thus,  343x = 512x1 - 15k3

 

 343512 = 783 = 1 - 15k3

 

 1-15k=78=1-18

  

Thus the initial amount of wine was 120 liters.

Q:

If sum of upstream and downstream speed of a boat is 82 kmph, and the boat travels 105 km. upstream in 3 hr, Find the time taken by boat to cover 126 km downstream. 

A) 2.8 hrs B) 2.7 hrs
C) 2.6 hrs D) 2.5 hrs
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 2.7 hrs

Explanation:

Let Speed of boat in still water = b

Let Speed of still water = w

Then we know that,

Speed of Upstream = U = boat - water

Speed of Downstream = D = boat + water

Given, U + D = 82

b - w + b + w = 82

2b = 82

=> b = 41 kmph

From the given data,

41 - w = 105/3 = 35

w = 6 kmph

Now,

b + w = 126/t

=> 41 + 6 = 126/t

=> t = 126/47  = 2.68 hrs.
