    4: 5
    3: 8
    3: 10
    Option A
    Speed of river = ¼ * 20 = 5 kmph
    Speed of the ship along the river = 20 + 5 = 25 kmph
    Speed of the boat against the river = 20 – 5 = 15 kmph
    Required ratio = 15: 25
    = 3: 5

    2:0
    Option B
    O+ G = 120 -à (1)
    (60/100) * O + (30/100) * G = 60
    6O + 3G = 600 —> (2)
    By solving the equation (1) and (2), we get,
    O = 80 liters, G = 40 liters
    Required ratio = 80 : 40 = 2 : 1

    56km/hr
    89km/hr
    45km/hr
    16km/hr
    Option A
    The speed from A to B = 360/5 = 72 km/hr
    The speed from B to A = 360/4 = 90 km/hr
    The average speed of the entire trip = 2xy/(x+ y)
    = > [(2 * 72 * 90) / 162]
    = > 80 km/hr
    Required difference = 90 – 80 = 10 km/hr

    16
    Option E
    A purse has the coins of 10p, 50p and 1 rupee is in the ratio = 5: 4: 3 (5x, 4x, 3x)
    22 = [(5x * 10) / 100] + [(4x * 50) / 100] + [(3x * 1)]
    22 = (50x/100) + (200x/100) + 3x
    22 = (x/2) + 2x + 3x
    44 = 11x
    x = 4
    The total number of 50p coins = 4x = 16

     


  10. A express train crosses a pole in 25 sec and the same train crosses a platform of length 150 m in 40 sec. Find the length of the train?

    605m
    845m
    250 m
    831m
    Option D
    Let the length of express be x,
    Here, the speed of the train is equal. So,
    (x / 25) = (x + 150) / 40
    8x = 5x + 750
    3x = 750
    x = 250
    The length of the train (x) = 250 m
