1. How to find Speed(s) if distance(d) & time(t) is given:

 Speed (S) = Distance (D)Time (T) 

Ex: Find speed if a person travels 4 kms in 2 hrs?

Speed = D/T = 4/2 = 2 kmph.

2.  Similarly, we can find distance (d)  if speed (s) & time (t) is given by

Distance (D) = Speed (S) x Time (T)

Ex : Find distance if a person with a speed of 2 kmph in 2 hrs?

Distance D = S X T = 2 x 2 = 4 kms. 

3.  Similarly, we can find time (t) if speed (s) &  distance (d) is given by

Time (T) = Distance (D)Speed (S)

Ex : Find in what time a person travels 4 kms with a speed of 2 kmph?

Time T = D/S = 4/2 = 2 hrs.

4. How to convert  km/hr into m/sec :

P km/hr = P x 518 m/sec

Ex : Convert 36 kmph into m/sec?

36 kmph = 36 x 5/18 = 10 m/sec 

5. How to convert  m/sec into km/hr :

P m/sec = P x 185 kmph.

Ex : Convert 10 m/sec into km/hr?

10 m/sec = 10 x 18/5 = 36 kmph.

6.  If the ratio of the speeds of A and B is a:b, then the ratio of the times taken by them to cover the same distance is b : a.

7.  Suppose a man covers a certain distance at x km/ hr and an equal distance at y km/hr . Then, the average speed during the whole journey is 2xyx+y km/hr.

Here 40% of 80 is given as

40100 x 80 = 8 x 4 = 32

From the given data,

K's profit : L's profit = 7x x 11 : 9x x 7

= 11:9

Therefore, L's profit = 9 x 2460/20 =  Rs. 1107

Starting from letter 'S' add 5 in the clock wise direction to get the next letter in English alphabets.

Here S + 5 => 19 + 5 = 24 => X

X + 5 = 24 + 5 = 3 => C

Similarly, 

B + 5 = G

Almond Selling price = CP(1 + P%/100)

=> CP = 20000, SP = 23000

=> 23000 = 20000 (1 + P/100)

=> P% = 100(23000/20000 - 1) = 15

Then, Olive's P% = 30%

SP for Olive = CP for Sarah = 23000(1 + 30/100) = 29900

Now Sarah wants to earn profit of 8%

=> Sp for Sarah = 29900(1 + 8/100)

= Rs. 32,292.

For this we have to find the LCM of 24, 36 and 30

LCM of 24, 36 and 30 = 360 sec

360/60 min = 6 minutes.

Present age of Sony = 24 + 4 = 28 years

After 5 years Renuka's age = 7×5 + 5 = 40 years

Carbon monoxide is one of the major pollutant present in the world. The six most common pollutants include ozone, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, lead, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter.

Carbon monoxide is a common atmospheric pollutant. It is produced largely in combustion processes like in industries and in vehicles. It is a gas that cannot be seen nor smelled.
