Speed of the current = 24-16/2

= 8/2

= 4 km/hr.

So, the speaker is the mother of chotu. Kiran is wife of chotu's father. Chotu's father is not shown in the diagram.

(20 x 18) men can complete the work in in one day.

one man's one day work = 1/360

(18 x 15) women can complete the work in 1 day

1 woman's one day work = 1/270

So, required ratio = 1270:1360= 4:3

Let the three consecutive odd numbers be x, x+2, x+4

Then,

x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 93

=> 3x + 6 = 93

=> 3x = 87

=> x = 29 => 29, 31, 33 are three consecutive odd numbers.

Therefore, the middle number is 31.

If number of visitors on 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th & 5th day are k, l, m, n & o respectively, then
k + l + m + n = 58 x 4 = 232 ---- (i) &
l + m + n + o = 60 x 4 = 240 ---- (ii)
Subtracting (i) from (ii), we get
o-k = 8 ---(iii)
Given, k/o = 8/9 ----(iv)
So from (iii) & (iv), we get
a = 64, e = 72
Therefore, number of visitors on 5th day is 72.

Let the speed of boat and stream be x and y kmph respectively.

According to question

d/x+y + d/x-y = 5h 15m or 21/4 hrs ......(i)

and 2d/x-y = 7...... (ii)

From eq. (i) and (ii)

2d/x+y = 7/2

Hence, Amith will take to row 2d km distance downstream in 7/2 hrs

= 3.5 hrs

= 3 hrs 30 min.

Speed of train relative to jogger = 45 - 9 = 36 km/hr.
= 36 x 5/18 = 10 m/sec.

Distance to be covered = 260 + 140 = 400 m.

Time taken = 400/10 = 40 sec.
