- Question
A train moves past a telegraph post and a bridge 264 m long in 8 seconds and 20 seconds respectively. What is the speed of the train?
Options- A. 69.5 km/hr
- B. 70 km/hr
- C. 79 km/hr
- D. 79.2 km/hr
- Correct Answer
- 79.2 km/hr
Explanation
Let the length of the train be x metres and its speed by y m/sec.Then, x = 8 ⟹ x = 8y y Now, x + 264 = y 20 ⟹ 8y + 264 = 20y
⟹ y = 22.
∴ Speed = 22 m/sec = ❨ 22 x 18 ❩ km/hr = 79.2 km/hr. 5 - 1. A certain sum amounts to Rs 1586 in 2 year and Rs 1729 in 3 year. Find the rate and the sum.

Correct Answer: 11 %
Explanation:
Simple Interest in 1 year= Rs (1729 - 1586)
= Rs 143
now, SI in 2 year = Rs 286
Principal P= Rs(1586 - 286)
= 1300
And R= (100 × SI)/(P × T)
= (100 × 143)/(1300 × 1)
= 11 %
where, R = rate
SI= Simple Interest
P = Principal
T= Time
Correct Answer: None of these
Explanation:
(21+ 99) x (30 - 19.02)
? (21+ 99 ) x (30 - 19)
? 120 x 11 = 1320
Correct Answer: 20
Explanation:
When A scores 75 points, B scores 50 points.
When A scores 90 points, C scores (90 - 18) = 72 points.
? When A scores 75 points, C scores = 72 × 75 / 90 = 60 points.
A : B : C = 75 : 50 : 60
C : B = 60 / 50 = 120 / 100
So, in a game of 120, C can give B
(120 - 100) = 20 points.
Correct Answer: 17
Explanation:
Average = sum of 6 numbers / 6
= ( 13 + 17 + 25 + 11 + 26 + 10 ) / 6
= 102 / 6
= 17
Correct Answer: 60 litres
Explanation:
Here w = 2 litres per hour
? Required answer = {(15 x 10) / (15 - 10)} x 2 = 60 litres.
Correct Answer: 152?3
Explanation:
a + b + c = 11 x 3 = 33 .....(i)
c + d + e = 17 x 3 = 51 .....(ii)
e + f = 22 x 2 = 44 .....(iii)
e + c = 17 x 2 = 34 .....(iv)
From Eqs. (ii) and (iv), we get
34 + d = 51
? d = 17
Now adding Eqs. (i), (ii), (v), we get
a + b + c + d + e + f = 33 + 44 + 17 = 94
? Average of a, b, c, d, e and f = 94/6 = 152?3
Correct Answer: ? 12,000
Explanation:
Correct Answer: 16 years
Explanation:
| Then, | (6x + 6) + 4 | = | 11 |
| (5x + 6) + 4 | 10 |
⟹ 10(6x + 10) = 11(5x + 10)
⟹ 5x = 10
⟹ x = 2.
∴ Sagar's present age = (5x + 6) = 16 years.
Correct Answer: 12
Explanation:
Let (17.28 ÷ N ) / (3.6 x 0.2) = 2
Then, 17.28 / N = 1.44
? N = 17.28 / 1.44
= 12
Correct Answer: -1
Explanation:
? a + (1/b) = 1
ab + 1 = b ......(i)
Also, b + (1/c) = 1
? b = 1 - (1/c) ....(ii)
From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
ab + 1 = 1 - (1/c)
? ab = -1/c
? abc = -1
