Q:

Rushi and Arun are two business partners. They invest their capital in the ratio 7 : 9. After 6 months, a third person Ram joins them with a capital of two third of that of Arun. After a year, profit share of Rushi was Rs. 5600, then find total profit?

A) 26,250 B) 19,200
C) 18,650, D) 15,200
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 15,200

Explanation:

Ratio of investment of all the three members = (7 x 12) : (9 x 12) : (2/3 x 9 x 6)

= 7 : 9 : 3

Given Rushi's one year profit = Rs. 5600

=> Let the total profit = Rs. P

Then,

P x 7/19 = 5600

Total profit P = 19 x 5600/7 = Rs. 15,200.

Q:

A person can row 8 1/2 km an hour in still water and he finds that it takes him twice as long to row up as to row down the river. The speed of the stream ?

A) 1.78 kmph B) 2.35 kmph
C) 2.83 kmph D) 3.15 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 2.83 kmph

Explanation:

Given speed of the person = 8 1/2 = 17/2 kmph
Let the speed of the stream = x kmph
speed of upstream = 17/2 - x
speed of downstream = 17/2 + x
But given that,
2(17/2 - x) = 17/2 + x
=> 3x = 17/2
=> x = 2.83 kmph.

Q:

Two trains are running with speeds 30 kmph and 58 kmph respectively in the same direction. A man in the slower train passes the faster train in 18 seconds. Find the length of the faster train?

A) 105 mts B) 115 mts
C) 120 mts D) 140 mts
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 140 mts

Explanation:

Speeds of two trains = 30 kmph and 58 kmph

=> Relative speed = 58 - 30 = 28 kmph = 28 x 5/18 m/s = 70/9 m/s

Given a man takes time to cross length of faster train = 18 sec

 

Now, required Length of faster train = speed x time = 70/9  x  18 = 140 mts.
