Answer : 3. "Rs. 200"
Explanation :
Answer: C) Rs. 200 Explanation: Let the C.P be 'x'Then, the selling price S.P = x - 16x/100= 84x/100 = 21x/25Now, if the S.P is 60 more, then the profit is 14% => 21x/25 + 60 = x + 14x/100=> 114x/100 - 21x/25 = 60=> (57 - 42)x/50 = 60=> 15x/50 = 60x = 3000/15 = 200 Therefore, the Cost price C.P = x = Rs. 200

Answer : 3. "12 kmph"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 12 kmph Explanation: The distance is constant in this case. Let the time taken for travel with a speed of 10 kmph be 't'. Now the speed of 15 kmph is 3/2 times the speed of 10 kmph. Therefore, time taken with the speed of 15 kmph will be 2t/3 (speed is inversely proportional to time) Extra time taken = t - 2t/3 = t/3 => 1pm - 11am = 2hrs => t/3 = 2h => t = 6 hrs. Now, Distance = speed x time = 10 x 6 = 60 kms Time he takes to reach at noon = 6 - 1 = 5 hrs Now, Speed = 60/5 = 12 kmph.
