Solution : 

==>Relative Speed =  15-13= 2 kmph

it means  it travel 2000m in 60 minutes

Distance Left = 250-200 = 50m

Ques 2.

A work can be completed in 12 days when 2 men, 3 women and 6 children work together. Also when 4 women and 8 children work together, the same work gets completed in 18 days. In how many days 2 men can complete the same work?


Solution :

2men + 3 women +6children = 12 days
4women + 8 children  = 18 days

L.C.M of 12, 18 = 36

Efficiency of 2men + 3 women +6 children = 36/12 = 3 --(i)

Efficiency of 4women + 8 children  = 36/18 = 2

3women + 6 children = 3/2 --(ii)

from (i) and (ii) 

2men = 3 - 3/2 = 3/2

2men completed in = 36/(3/2) = 24 days

B + C = 3/20
1 = 1500
3/20 = 225

Ques 7.

A train left from station A for station B at 4 pm at an average speed of 80 km/h. At 8 pm, another train also had left from  station A for station B on a parallel track at an average speed of 120 km/h. How far from A, is the another train expected to overtake the first train?
