Excluding stoppages, the speed of a bus is 54 kmph and including stoppages, it is 45 kmph. For how many minutes does the bus stop per hour ?

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let time taken to travel the first half = x hr
Then time taken to travel the second half = (10 - x) hr

Distance covered in the the first half = 21x [because, distance = time*speed]
Distance covered in the the second half = 24(10 - x)

Distance covered in the the first half = Distance covered in the the second half
So,
21x = 24(10 - x)
=> 45x = 240
=> x = 16/3

Total Distance = 2*21(16/3) = 224 Km [multiplied by 2 as 21x was distance of half way]

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 A

Explanation:

We know total distance is 200 Km
If both trains crossed each other at a distance of 110 km then one train covered 110 km and other 90 km [110+90=200km]
So ratio of their speed = 110:90 = 11:9

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

We know that,
\begin{aligned}
Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed} \\
Speed = 20\text{ km/hr} = 20*\frac{5}{18}{ m/sec} \\
= \frac{50}{9}{ m/sec} \\

\text{ Time =} \left(400*\frac{9}{50}\right) \\
= 72 {sec} = 1\frac{1}{5}{ min}
\end{aligned}

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.
