Q:

 A motorboat takes half time to cover a certain distance downstream than upstream. What is the ratio between rate of current and rate of boat in still water?

A) 1 : 3 B) 3 : 2
C) 2 : 3 D) 3 : 1
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1 : 3

Explanation:

Let the speed of the boat in still water is 'w'

Speed of the current is 'c'

Let the distance between two places is 'd'

According to the question, motorboat takes half time to cover a certain distance downstream than upstream.

dw+c = 12dw-c

=> 2w - 2c = w + c

=> w = 3c

=> c : w = 1 : 3

 

Hence, the ratio between rate of current(c) and rate of boat in still water(w) = 1 : 3

Q:

When the price of rice decrease by 10%, a girl could buy 1 kg more for Rs. 270. Then, the original price of the rice per kg is

A) Rs. 36 B) Rs. 30
C) Rs. 28 D) Rs. 40
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 30

Explanation:

From the given data,

When the price of rice is decreased by 10%, the value of Rs. 270 would become

270 x 100/90 = 300

Now, the value 270 becomes 300

And given, the girl could buy 1 kg extra for that value

Change in value = 300 - 270 = Rs. 30

 

Therefore, 1 kg extra rice she can get for Rs. 30

 

=> The original price of rice = Rs. 30/kg.

 

As she gets only 9 kgs for Rs. 270 before 10% discount, now after discount she gets 10 kgs instead of 9 kgs for Rs. 270.
