A train traveled at an average speed of 100 km/hr, stopping for 3 minutes after every 75 km. How long did it take to reach its destination 600 km from the starting point.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Due to stoppages, it covers 9 km less.

Time taken to cover 9 km = (9/54) hour
= (1/6)*60 minutes
= 10 minutes

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the distance be 3x km,
then,
\begin{aligned}
\frac{x}{3} +\frac{x}{4} +\frac{x}{5} = \frac{47}{60} \\
\frac{47x}{60} =\frac{47}{60} \\
x = 1
\end{aligned}
So total distance = 3*1 = 3 Km

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

In this type of questions we need to get the relative speed between them,
The relative speed of the boys = 5.5kmph – 5kmph
= 0.5 kmph

Distance between them is 8.5 km
Time = Distance/Speed
Time= 8.5km / 0.5 kmph = 17 hrs

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Suppose they meet x hrs after 8 a.m.
then
(Distance moved by first in x hrs) + [Distance moved by second in (x-1) hrs]
= 330
So, 60x+75(x-1) = 330

x=3.

So,they meet at (8+3). i.e 11a.m.

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time} \\
= \frac{200}{24}m/sec = \frac{25}{3} m/sec \\
\frac{25}{3}*\frac{18}{5} km/hr = 30 km/hr
\end{aligned}
