As the sound travels faster in solids than liquids and gases, sound travels faster in the glass than Air and water.

Let workdone 1 boy in 1 day be b

and that of 1 girl be g

From the given data,

4(5b + 3g) = 23

20b + 12g = 23 .......(a)

2(3b + 2g) = 7

6b + 4g = 7 ........(b)

Solving (a) & (b), we get

b = 1, g = 1/4

Let number og girls required be 'p'

6(7 x 1 + p x 1/4) = 45

=> p = 2.

Hence, number of girls required = 2

If fares for cities L and M from K are x and y respectively, then

2x + 3y = 77 or 6x + 9y = 231...(1)
3x + 2y = 73 or 6x + 4y = 146...(2)

subtracting 2 from 1, we get

5y = 85

y = Rs. 17 => x = Rs. 13
