Answers & Solutions:

1) Answer (C)

(A+ B)’s 1 day’s work  = $\frac{1}{20}$

(B + C)’s 1 day’s work = $\frac{1}{30}$

(C + A)’s 1 day’s work = $\frac{1}{24}$

On adding,

2(A + B + C)’s 1 day’s work

= $\frac{1}{20}$ +$\frac{1}{30}$+$\frac{1}{24}$

 
= $\frac{6+4+5}{120}$= $\frac{15}{120}$

∴∴ (A + B + C)’s 1 day’s work

= $\frac{15}{240}$

∴∴ B’s 1 day’s work

=$\frac{15}{240}$ – $\frac{1}{24}$   = $\frac{5}{240}$ = $\frac{1}{48}$

C’s 1 day’s work

= -$\frac{15}{240}$ – $\frac{1}{20}$=
$\frac{3}{240}$ = $\frac{1}{80}$

so, shares = 48 and 80

2) Answer (C)

Total work that can be completed by A and B in one day = $\frac{1}{40}$
Total work that can be completed by A and B in one day = $\frac{1}{30}$
Total work that can be completed by A and B in one day = $\frac{1}{24}$

Total number of days each can complete in one day = $\frac{1}{40} + \frac{1}{30} + \frac{1}{24}$

3) Answer (D)

Fraction of work completed by A is not mentioned.

4) Answer (A)

5) Answer (D)

Let the total work be 75 units.

($\because$ LCM of 15 and 25 is 75.)

Efficiency of A and B = 75/15 = 5

Efficiency of A = 75/25 = 3

B leaves 5 days before the completion of the work so A works 5 days extra so,

5 days work of A = efficiency $\times$ days = 3 $\times$ 5 = 15

Remaining work = 75 – 15 = 60 units

60 units work done by A and B so time taken by together = 60/5 = 12 days

6) Answer (A)

A’s speed$=(5\times\frac{5}{18})m/\sec=\frac{25}{18}m/\sec.$

Time taken by A to cover 100 m $=(100\times\frac{18}{25})\sec=72\sec.$

Time taken by B to cover 92 m = (72 + 8) = 80 sec.

B’s speed $=\frac{92}{80}\times\frac{18}{5}\ kmph=4.14kmph.$

A is correct choice.

7) Answer (C)

Let A took ‘A’ days to complete the task and B took ‘B’ days

then Total time taken = $\frac{AB}{A+B}$=12 ———— Equation (i)

However, A alone taken time = ‘A’ days will be $\frac{A}{2}$ days.

Same for B alone taken time = ‘B’ days will be $\frac{B}{2}$ days.

Total Time = $\frac{A}{2}$ + $\frac{B}{2}$ = 25 days.

A+B= 50 days ——————– Equation (ii)

By (i) and (ii) equation AB = 600 —————– Equation (iii)

A,B =20,30

Because B is more efficient takes less days 80.

A,B,C = 2,8,8

8) Answer (A)

9) Answer (C)

initial velocity=u=49 m/s

final velocity=v=0 m/s

acceleration due to gravity=g=-9.8 $m/s^{2}$

we know, v=u + gt

=>t=-u/t

t=5 s

11) Answer (D)

12) Answer (B)

Given that a cyclist covers a distance of 500 m in 5 minutes (300 sec) then speed of the cyclist is given by,

s = $\frac{500}{5 \times 60}$

s = $\frac{5}{3}$

Total distance the cyclist would cover in half an hour (1800 sec) if he travels at the same speed is given by,

d = $\frac{5}{3} \times 1800 $ m

d = 3000 m (or) 3km

Hence, option B is the correct answer.

13) Answer (B)

Speed of cyclist = distance covered by cyclist in one round/time taken for one round

distance covered in one round= 2Ï€r= 628 m

thus, speed of cyclist= 628/2= 314 m/minute

14) Answer (B)

Given

A does one work in = 10 days

so in one day A completes $\frac{1}{10}$ work

similarly B does one work in 15 days

so in one day B completes $\frac{1}{15}$ work

so if they work together than the time required by them is

$\frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{15}$

= $\frac{1}{6}$

hence they complete one work together in 6 days

15) Answer (B)

If t is the time travelled on foot, then 9-t is the time taken on the bicycle.

The distance travelled on foot + the distance travelled on bicycle=total distance travelled

thus, 4t + (9-t)9=61 , distance travelled=Speed x time

On solving we get t=4

So the distance travelled on foot=4×4=16 km

16) Answer (D)

17) Answer (D)

Trains speed =$72\ \frac{km}{h}=\frac{72000}{3600}=20\ \frac{m}{s}.$

So, in 26 sec , it will cover =$26\times\ 20\ m=520\ m.$

It covers platform’s length and train’s length in 26 secs.

So, Trains length= $\left(520-250\right)=270\ m.$

D is correct choice.

18) Answer (A)

Hare spots a dog at a distance of 100 m

Distance covered by hare in 1 min, $ d =12 km/hr \times \frac{1}{60} $

$ d = \frac{1}{5} km $

= 200 m

Now dog has to cover total 300 m (100 + 200)

Time taken by dog to cover total 300 m ,

Relative speed = 16-12 = 4 km/hr

$ t = \frac{300 m}{4 km/hr} $

300 m = $ \frac{3}{10} km $

Solving , we get $ t= \frac{3}{40} hr $

Distance covered by hare = $ 12 \times \frac{3}{40} $

d = $ \frac{9}{10} km $

= 900 m

19) Answer (B)

20) Answer (C)

Let ‘2d’ be thee total distance covered by the man.

$\dfrac{d}{40}$ + $\dfrac{d}{60}$ = 8

$d = 24*8 = 192$ km

Hence, the total distance covered by the man = 192*2 = 384 km
