Bombay Express Left Delhi from Bombay at 14.30 hrs, travelling at a speed of 60 kmph and Rajdhani Express left. Delhi for Bombay on the same day at 16.30 hrs, travelling at a speed of 80 kmph. How far away from Delhi will the two trains meet?

[A] 120 km
[B] 360 km
[C] 480 km
[D] 500 km



ANS: C
Explanation:
Suppose they meet x hours after 14.30 hrs.
Then, 60x = 80 (x – 2) or x = 8.
Required distance = (60 x 8) km = 480 km

 It takes 10 days for digging a trench of 100 m long, 50 m broad and 10 m deep.  What length of trench, 25 m broad and 15 m deep can be dug in 30 days ?       a) 400 m          b) 200 m          c) 100 m          d) 89m Expl : More days, more length (Direct)       Less breadth, more length (Indirect)       More depth, less length (Indirect       Days      10 : 30;       Breadth  25 : 50;                  : : 100 : x       Depth    15 : 10;                     :. 10 * 25* 15 * x = 30 *50 * 10 *100             x= (30*50*10*100)/10*25*15 = 400      So the required length = 400m
