\nLet the present ages of daughter and mother be d and m respectively.
\n7d = m
\n19(d-4) = m-4
\n=> 19d – 76 = 7d – 4
\n=> 12d = 72
\n=> d = 6 and m = 42
\nMother’s age four years from now will be 42 + 4 = 46<\/p>\n
\nS.I = PRT \/ 100 = (1000 \u00d7 20 \u00d7 4) \/ 100 = Rs. 800<\/p>\n
\nTime taken by a single person to write a letter = 3 min
\n=> No. of letters written from 10 a.m. to 12.00 noon (i.e. 120 min) by a single person = 120 \/ 3 = 40 letters.
\n\u2234 No. of persons required to write 1960 letters in 120 min
\n= 1960 \/ 40 = 49.<\/p>\n
\nLet the investment of A, B , and C be y , 3y , 5y
\nafter 4 months A invested same amount and hence for next 8 months in a year his invest is
\nproportional to 2y . where as B and C withdrew half of their amount
\nSo their effective amount after 4 months are 1.5y and 2.5y respectvely
\nSo after a year their profits will be shared in ratio = A:B:C = (4y+16y) : (12y + 12y) : (20y + 20y)
\nA:B:C = 20:24:40 = 5:6:10<\/p>\n
\nLength of platform = 200*2 = 400
\nThe actual distance covered by train in 36 seconds = Length of platform + Length of train = 400 + 200 = 600
\nSpeed of the train = 600\/36 = 16.67 m\/s = 60 km\/hr
\nHence, the correct option is A.<\/p>\n
\nLet the Kavita’s present age be 2x.
\nSarita’s present age is x.
\nNow, 8 years hence,
\n(2x + 8)\/(x +8) = 22\/13
\n26x + 104 = 22x + 176
\nx = 18
\nHence, Kavita’s age = 18*2 = 36 years.
\nOption D is correct option.<\/p>\n
\nFor borrowed money P = Rs. 2000, R = 5% per annum and T = 5\/2 year
\nSI = Rs. (2000 \u00d7 5\/2 \u00d7 5 \u00d7 1\/100)= Rs. 250
\nFor lent money P = Rs. 2000, R = 6% per annum and T = 5\/2 year
\nSI= Rs. (2000 \u00d7 5\/2 \u00d7 6 \u00d7 1\/100) = Rs. 300
\nHis profit = Rs. (300 – 250) = Rs. 50<\/p>\n
\nSuppose pipe A alone takes x hours to fill the tank.
\nThen, pipes B and C will take x\/2 and x\/4 hours respectively to fill the tank.
\n1 \/ x + 2 \/ x + 4 \/ x = 1 \/ 5 \u21d4 7 \/ x = 1 \/ 5 \u21d4 x = 35 hrs.<\/p>\n
\nlet the initial amount invested be P .
\nSo after two years with 12%per annum ,P will amount to = P + 0.24P = 1.24P
\nNow 1.24P is invested again at SI 15% for two years and hence it will give an interest amount of = ( 0.3 x 1.24P) = 0.372 P
\nIt is given that 0.372 P – 0.24 P =264
\nSo P = 2000.<\/p>\n
\nSpeed of the truck = 360\/8 = 45 km\/hr
\nNow,
\nSpeed of the car = 360\/6 = 60km\/hr
\nRatio of speed of truck and car = 45\/60 = 3:4
\nTherefore, option B is correct.<\/p>\n
