    E) None
    View Answer
    Option C
    Solution:
    From I and II, 10 men’s work in 1 day = (7/24 – 1/6) = 1/8
    10 men can finish the work in 8 days.
    From II and III
    (1/x + 1/y) = 7/24
    (3/x + 4/y) = 1
    => y = 8 days
    From I and III (3/6 + 4/y) = 1 => y= 8 days.
  5. How much time will the train A take to cross another train B running in opposite direction?

    Solution:

    P+Q+R = 310
    From I, Q = 16+R
    From II, P = 3+R
    From III, P = Q-13
    Solving above equation we can find Q’s share.
  7. What is the rate of interest per annum ?
    I. The CI in 8 years is more than the amount.
    II. The difference between SI and CI in 2 years is Rs.450

    D) All are not sufficient
    E) None
    View Answer

    Solution:
    From I Ram – 6 / Ravi – 6 =3/4
    4Ram – 3Ravi=6
    From II Ram +2= 85/100(Ravi+2)
    17 Ravi – 20Ram =6
    From III Ram + Ravi =2Ravi -3
    Solving any two of them we get the ratio.
