Q: A boatman can row 3 km against the stream in 20 minutes and return in 18 minutes. Find the rate of current ? 6250 0

Answer : 4. "1/2 kmph"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 1/2 kmph Explanation: Speed in upstream = Distance / Time = 3 x 60/20 = 9 km/hr. Speed in downstream = 3 x 60/18 = 10 km/hr Rate of current = (10-9)/2 = 1/2 km/hr.

Q: A sold an article to B at 40% profit and B sold it to C at 50% profit, then what will be profit percent with respect to A ? 2286 0

Answer : 2. "110 %"
Explanation :

Q: A boat takes 19 hours for travelling downstream from point A to point B and coming back to a point C which is at midway between A and B. If the velocity of the stream is 4 kmph and the speed of the boat in still water is 14 kmph, what is the distance between A and B ? 6813 1

Answer : 1. "180 km"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 180 km Explanation: Speed in downstream = (14 + 4) km/hr = 18 km/hr; Speed in upstream = (14 – 4) km/hr = 10 km/hr. Let the distance between A and B be x km. Then, x/18 + (x/2)/10 = 19 ⇔ x/18 + x/20 = 19 ⇒ x = 180 km.
