Answer : 4. "3 hrs 45 min"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 3 hrs 45 min Explanation: Time taken by one tap to fill half of the tank = 3 hrs. Part filled by the taps in 1 hour = 4 x 1/6 = 2/3 Remaining part = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2 2/3 : 1/2 :: 1 : p p = 1/2 x 1 x 3/2 = 3/4 hrs. i.e., 45 min So, total time taken = 3 hrs 45 min.

Answer : 4. "50 kmph"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 50 kmph Explanation: Speed of the train relative to man = (125/10) m/sec = (25/2) m/sec. [(25/2) x (18/5)] km/hr = 45 km/hr. Let the speed of the train be 'S' km/hr. Then, relative speed = (S - 5) km/hr. S - 5 = 45 => S = 50 km/hr.

Answer : 3. "12 kmph"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 12 kmph Explanation: Let the distance traveled be x km.Then, x/10 - x/15 = 23x - 2x = 60 => x = 60 km.Time taken to travel 60 km at 10 km/hr = 60/10 = 6 hrs.So, Robert started 6 hours before 2. p.m. i.e., at 8 a.m.Required speed = 60/5 = 12 kmph.

Answer : 3. "40"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 40 Explanation: Let distance = x km and usual rate = y kmph.Then, x/y - x/(y+3) = 40/60 --> 2y (y+3) = 9x ----- (i)Also, x/(y-2) - x/y = 40/60 --> y(y-2) = 3x -------- (ii)On dividing (i) by (ii), we get: x = 40 km.
