4 +a = 4 + a<br \/>\nSince City B is behind city A by &#8216;a&#8217; hours, the actual travel time is &#8216;a&#8217; hours more than the difference of local times.<br \/>\nSimilarly when one travels from B to A, since B is ahead of A by &#8216;a&#8217; hrs, actual travel time is &#8216;a&#8217; hours less than total<br \/>\ni.e. B-&gt;A Travel time = (3PM &#8211; 8AM) &#8211; a = 7 -a<br \/>\nTotal distance travelled = Speed $\\times$ Time taken &#8230;.(1)<br \/>\nFrom A to B, the wind is favourable \/ in same direction as flight<br \/>\nHence from (1), we have<br \/>\nA-&gt;B &gt;&gt;&gt;

36 = 24 units.<br \/>\nWork done in the next 3 hours = 7 units + 8 units + 9 units = 24 units.<br \/>\nTherefore, the work gets done by 8 PM.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let the work done by the big pump in one hour be 3 units.<br \/>\nTherefore, work done by each of the small pumps in one hour = 2 units.<br \/>\nLet the total work to be done in filling the tank be 9 units.<br \/>\nTherefore, time taken by the big pump if it operates alone = 9\/3 = 3 hours.<br \/>\nIf all the pumps operate together, the work done in one hour = 3 + 2*3 = 9 units.<br \/>\nTogether, all of them can fill the tank in 1 hour.<br \/>\nRequired ratio = 1\/3<\/p>\n<p><strong>4)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As machine B&#8217;s efficiency is twice as of A&#8217;s, Hence, it will complete its work in 30 hours.<br \/>\nAnd C&#8217;s efficiency is putting A and B together i.e. = 20 hours $( (\\frac{1}{60} + \\frac{1}{30})^{-1})$<br \/>\nNow if all three work together, then it will be completed in x (say) days.<\/p>\n<p>$\\frac{1}{x} = \\frac{1}{20} + \\frac{1}{30} + \\frac{1}{60}$<\/p>\n<p>or x = 10 hours<\/p>\n<p><strong>5)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In a normal watch, the minute hand crosses the hour&#8217;s hand after every 1 hour 5 minutes and 27 seconds.<br \/>\nSo, the third time the hour&#8217;s hand crosses the minute&#8217;s hand is after 3 hours 16 minutes and 21 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>In this watch, the time taken for this to happen is 3 hours 18 minutes and 15 seconds.<br \/>\nHence, the watch loses 1 minute and 54 seconds after every 3 hours 18 minutes and 15 seconds.<br \/>\n18 minutes and 15 seconds = 1095 seconds = 1095\/3600 $\\approx$ .304 hours.<br \/>\n=&gt; 3 hours 18 minutes and 15 seconds = 3.304 hours<br \/>\nSo, time lost in a day is $1\\frac{54}{60}*\\frac{24}{3.304} = \\frac{114}{60}*\\frac{24}{3.304} \\approx 13.8$<br \/>\nSo, the time lost by the watch in a day is approximately equal to 13 minutes and 48 seconds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The relative speed is 15 km\/hr = 15 km\/60 min = 0.25 km\/min = 250 m\/min.<br \/>\nTherefore, one minute before they collide, they are at a distance of 250m.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let the distance between gutter 1 and A be x and between gutter 1 and 2 be y.<\/p>\n<p>Hence, x + y + 2y + x = 20 =&gt; 2x+3y=20<\/p>\n<p>Also x = 30kmph * 5\/60 = 2.5km<\/p>\n<p>Hence, y = 5km<\/p>\n<p>After the ambulance doubles its speed it goes at 60kmph i.e. 1km per min. Hence, time taken for the rest of the journey = 15*2 + 2.5 = 32.5<\/p>\n<p>It takes 1 min to load and unload the patient.<\/p>\n<p>Hence, total time = 5 + 32.5 + 1 = 38.5 mins<\/p>\n<p>So, the doctor would get 1.5 min to attend to the patient.<\/p>\n<p><p class=\"text-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cracku.in\/blog\/cat-formulas-pdf\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"btn btn-info \">XAT Quant formulas PDF<\/a><\/p><br \/>\n<p class=\"text-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cracku.in\/xat-mock-test\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"btn btn-danger \">Take XAT Mock Test<\/a><\/p><\/p>\n<p><strong>8)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let the length of the tunnel be x and distance of the train to entrance A be y.
