    6. A 180m long train crosses a Man in 9 seconds. Later if the train increased its speed and crossed another 240m train in 42 sec running in the same direction at 54 Km/hr, then find the increased speed in km/hr?
      1. 5 Km/hr
      2. 18 Km/hr
      3. 24 Km/hr
      4. 36 Km/hr
      5. None
      Answer – 2. 18 Km/hr
      Explanation :
      train speed = 180/9 = 20
      20+x-15 = 420/42
      x =5 m/sec = 18 Km/hr

    7. Sum weights of A and B are equal to the sum of weights of C and D. B is 28 Kg heavier than A. D is 32 kg heavier than C. Sum of weights of A and C is 20 Kg. Then what is the average weight of A, B, C, and D?
      1. 24
      2. 25
      3. 26
      4. 27
      5. 28
      Answer –2. 25
      Explanation :
      A+B = C+D
      B = 28+A
      D = 32+C
      A+C = 20
      A = 11, B = 39, C = 9 and D =41
      Average = 100/4 = 25

      4. Rs. 100
      5. None
      Answer – 3. Rs. 75
      3325+3325*9*4/100 = (3325+x)*(1+33/100)
      x = 75

    10. In a vessel, the ratio of Milk and Water is 5:1. If some quantity of water is added then the ratio becomes 4:1. Now 20 liters of the mixture is withdrawn thus in final mixture Milk is 64 liters. Then find how much water is added to the initial mixture?
      1. 4 liter
      2. 5 liter

      4. 8 liter
      5. None
      Answer – 1. 4 liter
      Explanation :
      5x/x+w = 4y/y
      4y-4/5*20 = 64
      y = 20
      x = 16
