Ram and Sham are running a race, Ram runs 25% faster than Sham and is able to allow Sham a lead of 7 meters to end a race in dead heat. Find the distance of the race.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the time in which he travelled on foot = x hour
Time for travelling on bicycle = (9 - x) hr

Distance = Speed * Time, and Total distance = 61 km
So,
4x + 9(9-x) = 61
=> 5x = 20
=> x = 4

So distance traveled on foot = 4(4) = 16 km

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:

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:

Relative speed of the thief and policeman = (11 – 10) km/hr = 1 km/hr

Distance covered in 6 minutes =
\begin{aligned}
\frac{1}{60}*6 = \frac{1}{10} \\
= 100 meters
\end{aligned}

So distance between them after 6 minutes = 200 - 100
= 100 meters

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
