Direction: Read the following information carefully and answer the given questions: Once a thief had stolen money from the bank, He saw a policeman at a distance of (A)km. The thief started running at a speed of 8Km\/hr and the policeman started chasing him. The ratio of the speed of the policeman and the thief is 5:4. After a distance of 8 km, a thief was caught in the market. The policemantook him to the police station at a distance of 480 km away from the market, who drove his car at a speed of (B) km\/hr. After (C) hours, The inspector drove his jeep at a speed of 60 km\/hr. They meetin the middle of the distance and thepolicemanhands over the thief to the inspector. The speed of a car is 2\/3 of the police jeep. After traveling (D)km they saw an accident So he reduced the speed of the jeep by 40\u2105. Due to this, he reached the destination 2 hourslate. Had the accident taken place (E) km further, it would have been one hour 20 minutes late.<\/p>
1. A man runs 3 hours with a speed of B km\/hr and a woman runs 3 hours with a speed of E km\/hr. Then, find the distance traveled by the women is how much percentage is more or less than a man.<\/p>
A. 40 %<\/p>
B. 50 %<\/b><\/p>
C. 30 %<\/p>
D. 60 %<\/p>
E. None of these<\/p>
Sol:<\/p>
From the solution we obtained <\/p>
B = 40 km\/hr E = 60 km\/hr <\/p>
Man — 3*40 == 120 km <\/p>
Woman — 3*60 = 180 km <\/p>
180 – 120 == 60 <\/p>
The required percentage = 60\/120 * 100 = 50%<\/p>
2. Ramesh travels (180 * A) km of the total distance. He travels 20\u2105 of the distance by a car and the remaining 50\u2105 of the distance by a train and the remaining distance covered in cycle and foot in the ratio 5 : 3. Find the distance covered in the foot.<\/p>
A. 66 km<\/p>
B. 48 km<\/p>
C. 54 km<\/p>
D. 72 km<\/p>
E. None of these<\/p>
Sol:<\/p>
A —- 2 km <\/p>
180 * 2 == 360 km <\/p>
20% of the distance by a car <\/p>
20% (360) = 72 km <\/p>
Remaining = 360 – 72 = 288 km <\/p>
50% of the remaining by train <\/p>
50% (288) == 144 km <\/p>
288 – 144 == 144 km <\/p>
Covers a remaining distance by cycle and foot in the ratio 5 : 3 <\/p>
Distance covered by Foot = 144 * 3\/8 = 54 km<\/p>
3. A bus travels at a speed of (B+14) km\/hr without stoppages and it travels at a speed of (B+5) km\/hr with stoppages in one hour. How many minutes does the bus stop on an average per hour?<\/p>
A. 15 minutes<\/p>
B. 10 minutes<\/b><\/p>
C. 20 minutes<\/p>
D. 30 minutes<\/p>
E. None of these<\/p>
Sol:<\/p>
B = 40 km\/hr <\/p>
Without stoppage — 40+14 = 54 Km\/hr <\/p>
With stoppage — 40+5 == 45 km\/hr <\/p>
so on One hour Without stoppage it travels = 54 <\/p>
km <\/p>
with Stoppage = 45 km <\/p>
Due to the stoppage, the car travels 9 km less. <\/p>
Time taken to cover 9 km <\/p>
= 9\/54 * 60 = 10 minutes <\/p>
Hence, the answer is option B.<\/p>
4. Raju travels C+2 hours more than the time taken by Rithesh to walk X km. If Raju doubles his speed it would take 2 hours less than Rithesh. How much time does Rithesh take to cover X km?<\/p>
A. 4 hrs<\/p>
B. 5 hrs<\/p>
C. 8 hrs<\/b><\/p>
D. 12 hrs<\/p>
E. None of these<\/p>
Sol:<\/p>
From the solutions we obtained, <\/p>
C =2 hours <\/p>
Raju c+2 = 4 hrs more than Rithesh <\/p>
Let,Rithesh covers t hours <\/p>
Raju covers t+4 hrs <\/p>
With double the speed (t+4)\/2 <\/p>
t – (t+4)\/2 = 2 <\/p>
2t – t – 4 = 4 <\/p>
t = 8 hours (Rithesh) <\/p>
Hence, the answer is option C.<\/p>
