• Let us assume
• B = x days
• A = (3/2) x days
• In 1 day,
• {1 / [(3/2) x] + 1 / x} = (1 / 18)
• X = 30
• So A = 45 days, B =30 days, C = 24 days
• N * [(1/45) + (1/30) + (1/24)] + 5 * [(1/45) + (1/24)] = 1
• N=7
• So total number of days = 7 + 5 = 12
The ratio of the speed of a bus and a car is 2:5. The car covers a distance
of 280 km in some time and the bus covers a distance of "d" km less in
the same time. What is the distance covered by the bus?
[( 3x + 3 ) / ( 5x + 9) ] = 4 / 7
X = 15
(x/y) = 1/2
48 litre of Glycerin is mixed with 144 litre Rose water. D litre of total
mixture is taken out and 32-liter Glycerin and 48 litre Rose water are
added in the mixture. The final mixture contains 30% Glycerin, find the
quantity of the mixture that is taken out?
• Total mixture = 48 + 144 = 192 litre
• % of Glycerin = 48/ 192 × 100 = 25%
• % of Rose water = 100% - 25% = 75%
• In the final mixture glycerin= 30%, Rose water = 70%
• Ratio = 30 : 70 = 3 : 7
• (48 – D × 25% + 32) : (144 – D × 75% + 48) = 3 : 7
• 7 (48 – D × 25% + 32) = 3 (144 – D × 75% + 48)
• 2.25 D – 1.75 D = 576 – 560
• D = 32 litre
A, B and C a partnership in the ratio 7/2 : 4/3 : 6/5. After 4
months, A increases his share by 50%. Total profit after 1
year be Rs.2,16,000, B’s share is?
Ratio of the initial investment = 7/2 : 4/3 : 6/5
= 105:40:36
Actual investment of A,B,C =105x,40x and 36x.
A increases his share 50% after 4 months.
Hence the ratio of their investments
= (105x*4)+(105x*150/100×8) : 40x×12 : 36x*12
= 35:10:9
B,s profit=(10/ 54) * 216000
=40000
Two towns are connected by railway. Can you find the distance between them?
I. The speed of the mail train is 12 km/hr more than that of an express train.
II. A mail train takes 40 minutes less than an express train to cover the distance.

Suppose A, B and C take x, x/2 and x/3 days respectively to finish the
work.
Then, 1/x + 2/x + 3/x = 1/2
6/x = 1/2
x = 12.
So, B takes (12/2) = 6 days to finish the work.
An express A starts at 2.30 pm from nampali station and travels towards vizag
station at speed of 80 kmph. Another express starts at 4.30 pm from nampali
station to vizag station at speed of 100 kmph. How far away from station Nampali
will the two trains meet?
