Explanation :
Answer: D) Rs. 1,00,000 Explanation: Deepa invested Rs.50,000 for 12 months, Rs.(50000 + 20000) for 12 months and Rs.(50000 + 20000 + 20000) for 12 months.i.e, she invested Rs.50,000 for 12 months, Rs.70000 for 12 months and Rs.90000 for 12 months.Sushma invested Rs. 70000 for 2 years; i.e, Rs.70000 for 24 monthsAnd, Avanthi invested Rs.70000 for 1 year; i.e, Rs. 70000 for 12 months. Their investing ratio:Deepa : Sushma : Avanthi = (50,000 x 12 + 70000 x 12 + 90000 x 12):(70000 x 24):(70000 x 12)= (25,20,000):(16,80,000):(8,40,000) = 252:168:84 = 3:2:1 Total profit for 3 years = Rs.3,00,000Therefore, Sushma's share = Rs.(3,00,000 x 2 /(3+2+1)) = Rs.(3,00,000 x 2/6) = Rs.1,00,000.

Answer : 2. "4 km/hr"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 4 km/hr Explanation: Let P's speed = x km/hr. Then, Q's speed = (7 - x) km/ hr. So, 24/x + 24/(7 - x) = 14 x2 - 98x + 168 = 0 (x - 3)(x - 4) = 0 => x = 3 or 4. Since, P is faster than Q, so P's speed = 4 km/hr and Q's speed = 3 km/hr.
