 Three persons are walking from a place A to another place B. Their speeds are in the ratio of 4 : 3 : 5. The time ratio to reach B by these persons will be :
[A] 4 : 3 : 5
[B] 5 : 3 : 4
[C] 15 : 9 : 20
[D] 15 : 20 : 12


ANS: D
Explanation:
Ratio of speeds = 4 : 3 : 5
Therefore Ratio of times taken = (1/4) : (1/3) : (1/5) = 15 : 20 : 12

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 ?

 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
