A dog takes 3 leaps for every 5 leaps of a hare. If one leap of the dog is equal to 3 leaps of the hare, the ratio of the speed of the dog to that of the hare is

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let the first number is A and second number is B.

As per question

\begin{aligned}
\frac{40}{100}A = \frac{2}{3}B \\

\frac{A}{B} = \frac{2}{3}*\frac{100}{40} \\
\frac{A}{B} = \frac{5}{3} \\
=> A:B = 5:3

\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
A:B = 2:3 \\
B:C = 4:5 = (4*\frac{3}{4} : 5*\frac{3}{4}) \\
= 3:\frac{15}{4} \\
C:D = 6:7 = (6*\frac{15}{24} : 7*\frac{15}{24}) \\
= \frac{15}{4}:\frac{35}{8} \\
A:B:C:D = 2:3:\frac{15}{4}:\frac{35}{8} \\
= 16:24:30:35
= 8:12:9
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let x is subtracted.
Then,
\begin{aligned}
\frac{(6-x)}{(7-x)}< \frac{16}{21} \\

21(6—x) < 16(7—x)\\
=> 5x > 14 = x > 2.8
\end{aligned}

Least such number is 3

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the numbers be 3x, 2x and 5x.
Then,
9x + 4x + 25x =1862
⇒ 38x = 1862
⇒ x = 49 ⇒ x = 7.
middle number = 2x = 14

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Treat 2:9 as 2/9 and x:18 as x/18, treat :: as =

So we get 2/9 = x/18
=> 9x = 36
=> x = 4
