2/3
8/21
3/7
9/22
Explanation:
Total number of balls = (8 + 7 + 6) = 21
Let E = event that the ball drawn is neither blue nor green =e vent that the ball drawn is red.
Therefore, n(E) = 8.
P(E) = 8/21.
Total number of balls = (8 + 7 + 6) = 21
Let E = event that the ball drawn is neither blue nor green =e vent that the ball drawn is red.
Therefore, n(E) = 8.
P(E) = 8/21.

41197.A speaks truth in 75% of cases and B in 80% of cases. In what percentage of cases are they likely to contradict each other, narrating the same incident
30%
35%
40%
45%
Explanation:
Let A = Event that A speaks the truth
B = Event that B speaks the truth
Then P(A) = 75/100 = 3/4
P(B) = 80/100 = 4/5
P(A-lie) = 1-3/4 = 1/4
P(B-lie) = 1-4/5 = 1/5
Now
A and B contradict each other =
[A lies and B true] or [B true and B lies]
= P(A).P(B-lie) + P(A-lie).P(B)
[Please note that we are adding at the place of OR]
= (3/5*1/5) + (1/4*4/5) = 7/20
= (7/20 * 100) % = 35%
Let A = Event that A speaks the truth
B = Event that B speaks the truth
Then P(A) = 75/100 = 3/4
P(B) = 80/100 = 4/5
P(A-lie) = 1-3/4 = 1/4
P(B-lie) = 1-4/5 = 1/5
Now
A and B contradict each other =
[A lies and B true] or [B true and B lies]
= P(A).P(B-lie) + P(A-lie).P(B)
[Please note that we are adding at the place of OR]
= (3/5*1/5) + (1/4*4/5) = 7/20
= (7/20 * 100) % = 35%

5 km/hr
4 km/hr
2 km/hr
1 km/hr
Explanation:
Rate upstream = (15/3) kmph
Rate downstream (21/3) kmph = 7 kmph.
Speed of stream (1/2)(7 - 5)kmph = 1 kmph
Rate upstream = (15/3) kmph
Rate downstream (21/3) kmph = 7 kmph.
Speed of stream (1/2)(7 - 5)kmph = 1 kmph
41216.A man rows 750 m in 675 seconds against the stream and returns in 7 and half minutes. His rowing speed in still water is
4 kmph
5 kmph
6 kmph
7 kmph
Explanation:
Rate upstream = (750/675) = 10/9 m/sec
Rate downstream (750/450) m/sec = 5/3 m/sec
Rate in still water = (1/2)*[(10/9) + (5/3)] m/sec.
= 25/18 m/sec
= (25/18)*(18/5) kmph
= 5 kmph
Rate upstream = (750/675) = 10/9 m/sec
Rate downstream (750/450) m/sec = 5/3 m/sec
Rate in still water = (1/2)*[(10/9) + (5/3)] m/sec.
= 25/18 m/sec
= (25/18)*(18/5) kmph
= 5 kmph
41217.If a boat goes 7 km upstream in 42 minutes and the speed of the stream is 3 kmph, then the speed of the boat in still water is
12 kmph
13 kmph
14 kmph
15 kmph
Explanation:
Rate upstream = (7/42)*60 kmh = 10 kmph.
Speed of stream = 3 kmph.
Let speed in sttil water is x km/hr
Then, speed upstream = (x —3) km/hr.
x-3 = 10 or x = 13 kmph
Rate upstream = (7/42)*60 kmh = 10 kmph.
Speed of stream = 3 kmph.
Let speed in sttil water is x km/hr
Then, speed upstream = (x —3) km/hr.
x-3 = 10 or x = 13 kmph
41218.A man takes twice as long to row a distance against the stream as to row the same distance in favour of the stream. The ratio of the speed of the boat in still water and stream is
3:1
1:3
2:4
4:2
Explanation:
Let speed downstream = x kmph
Then Speed upstream = 2x kmph
So ratio will be,
(2x+x)/2 : (2x-x)/2
=> 3x/2 : x/2 => 3:1
Let speed downstream = x kmph
Then Speed upstream = 2x kmph
So ratio will be,
(2x+x)/2 : (2x-x)/2
=> 3x/2 : x/2 => 3:1
41219.A mans speed with the current is 20 kmph and speed of the current is 3 kmph. The Mans speed against the current will be
11 kmph
12 kmph
14 kmph
17 kmph
Explanation:
If you solved this question yourself, then trust me you have a all very clear with the basics of this chapter.
If not then lets solve this together.
Speed with current is 20,
speed of the man + It is speed of the current
Speed in still water = 20 - 3 = 17
Now speed against the current will be
speed of the man - speed of the current
= 17 - 3 = 14 kmph
If you solved this question yourself, then trust me you have a all very clear with the basics of this chapter.
If not then lets solve this together.
Speed with current is 20,

41220.A man in a train notices that he can count 41 telephone posts in one minute. If they are known to be 50 metres apart, then at what speed is the train travelling?
60 km/hr
100 km/hr
110 km/hr
120 km/hr
Explanation:
Number of gaps between 41 poles = 40
So total distance between 41 poles = 40*50
= 2000 meter = 2 km
In 1 minute train is moving 2 km/minute.
Speed in hour = 2*60 = 120 km/hour
Number of gaps between 41 poles = 40
So total distance between 41 poles = 40*50
= 2000 meter = 2 km
In 1 minute train is moving 2 km/minute.
Speed in hour = 2*60 = 120 km/hour
41221.A person travels equal distances with speed of 3 km/hr, 4 km/hr and 5 km/hr and takes a total of 47 minutes. Find the total distane
3 km
4 km
6 km
9 km
Explanation:
Let the distance be 3x km,
then,
x/3+x/4+x/5=47/60
47x/60=47/60
x=1
So total distance = 3*1 = 3 Km
Let the distance be 3x km,
then,
x/3+x/4+x/5=47/60
47x/60=47/60
x=1
So total distance = 3*1 = 3 Km
41222.A walks around a circular field at the rate of one round per hour while B runs around it at the rate of six rounds per hour. They start at same point at 7:30 am. They shall first cross each other at ?
7:15 am
7:30 am
7: 42 am
7:50 am
Explanation:
Relative speed between two = 6-1 = 5 round per hour
They will cross when one round will complete with relative speed,
which is 1/5 hour = 12 mins.
So 7:30 + 12 mins = 7:42
Relative speed between two = 6-1 = 5 round per hour
They will cross when one round will complete with relative speed,
which is 1/5 hour = 12 mins.
So 7:30 + 12 mins = 7:42
41223.The ratio between the speeds of two trains is 7: 8. If the second train runs 400 kms in 4 hours, then the speed of the first train is ?
83.5 km/hr
84.5 km/hr
86.5 km/hr
87.5 km/hr
Explanation:
Let the speeds of two trains be 7X and 8X km/hr.
8X=400/4
=>X=12.5Km/hr
So speed of first train is 12.5*7 = 87.5 km/hr
Let the speeds of two trains be 7X and 8X km/hr.
8X=400/4
=>X=12.5Km/hr
So speed of first train is 12.5*7 = 87.5 km/hr
41224.A man can row upstream 10 kmph and downstream 20 kmph. Find the man rate in still water and rate of the stream.
0,5
5,5
15,5
10,5
Explanation:
Please remember,
If a is rate downstream and b is rate upstream
Rate in still water = 1/2(a+b)
Rate of current = 1/2(a-b)
=> Rate in still water = 1/2(20+10) = 15 kmph
=> Rate of current = 1/2(20-10) = 5 kmph
Please remember,
If a is rate downstream and b is rate upstream
Rate in still water = 1/2(a+b)
Rate of current = 1/2(a-b)
=> Rate in still water = 1/2(20+10) = 15 kmph
=> Rate of current = 1/2(20-10) = 5 kmph
41225.Ques. A Man travelled a distance of 61 km in 9 hours. He travelled partly on foot at 4 km/hr and partly on bicycle at 9 km/hr. What is the distance travelled on foot?
16 km
14 km
12 km
10 km
Explanation:
Let the time in which he travelled on foot = x hour
Time for travelling on bicycle = (9 - x) hr
Distance = Speed * Time, and Total distance = 61 km
So,
4x + 9(9-x) = 61
=> 5x = 20
=> x = 4
So distance traveled on foot = 4(4) = 16 km
Let the time in which he travelled on foot = x hour
Time for travelling on bicycle = (9 - x) hr
Distance = Speed * Time, and Total distance = 61 km
So,
4x + 9(9-x) = 61
=> 5x = 20
=> x = 4
So distance traveled on foot = 4(4) = 16 km
41226.A man on tour travels first 160 km at 64 km/hr and the next 160 km at 80 km/hr. Find the average speed for first 320 km of tour.
70.11 km/hr
71.11 km/hr
72.11 km/hr
73.11 km/hr
Explanation:
We know Time = Distance/speed
So total time taken =(160/64+160/80)=92hours
Time taken for 320 Km = 320∗2/9
=71.11km/hr
We know Time = Distance/speed
So total time taken =(160/64+160/80)=92hours
Time taken for 320 Km = 320∗2/9
=71.11km/hr
41227.Robert is travelling on his cycle and has calculated to reach point A at 2 P.M. if he travels at 10 kmph, he will reach there at 12 noon if he travels at 15 kmph. At what speed must he travel to reach A at 1 P.M.?
9 km/hour
10 km/hour
11 km/hour
12 km/hour
Explanation:
We need to calculate the distance, then we can calculate the time and finally our answer.
Lets solve this,
Let the distance travelled by x km
Time = Distance/Speed
x/10−x/15=2
[because, 2 pm - 12 noon = 2 hours]
3x−2x=60
x=60
Time=Distance/Speed
Time@10km/hr=60/10=6hours
So 2 P.M. - 6 = 8 A.M
Robert starts at 8 A.M.
He have to reach at 1 P.M. i.e, in 5 hours
So, Speed = 60/5 = 12 km/hr
We need to calculate the distance, then we can calculate the time and finally our answer.
Lets solve this,
Let the distance travelled by x km
Time = Distance/Speed
x/10−x/15=2
[because, 2 pm - 12 noon = 2 hours]
3x−2x=60
x=60
Time=Distance/Speed
Time@10km/hr=60/10=6hours
So 2 P.M. - 6 = 8 A.M
Robert starts at 8 A.M.
He have to reach at 1 P.M. i.e, in 5 hours
So, Speed = 60/5 = 12 km/hr

S.I. on Rs 800 for 1 year = 40
Rate = (100*40)/(800*1) = 5%
41230.A train covers a distance in 50 minutes, if it runs at a speed of 48kmph on an average. Find the speed at which the train must run to reduce the time of journey to 40 minutes.
50 km/hr
60 km/hr
65 km/hr
70 km/hr
Explanation:
We are having time and speed given, so first we will calculate the distance. Then we can get new speed for given time and distance.
Lets solve it.
Time = 50/60 hr = 5/6 hr
Speed = 48 mph
Distance = S*T = 48 * 5/6 = 40 km
New time will be 40 minutes so,
Time = 40/60 hr = 2/3 hr
Now we know,
Speed = Distance/Time
New speed = 40*3/2 kmph = 60kmph
We are having time and speed given, so first we will calculate the distance. Then we can get new speed for given time and distance.

41231.Two boys starting from the same place walk at a rate of 5kmph and 5.5kmph respectively. What time will they take to be 8.5km apart, if they walk in the same direction?
15 hours
16 hours
17 hours
18 hours
Explanation:
In this type of questions we need to get the relative speed between them,
The relative speed of the boys = 5.5kmph – 5kmph
= 0.5 kmph
Distance between them is 8.5 km
Time = Distance/Speed
Time= 8.5km / 0.5 kmph = 17 hrs
In this type of questions we need to get the relative speed between them,
The relative speed of the boys = 5.5kmph – 5kmph
= 0.5 kmph
Distance between them is 8.5 km
Time = Distance/Speed
Time= 8.5km / 0.5 kmph = 17 hrs
41232.Excluding stoppages, the speed of a bus is 54 kmph and including stoppages, it is 45 kmph. For how many minutes does the bus stop per hour ?
8 minutes
10 mintues
12 minutes
14 minutes
Explanation:
Due to stoppages, it covers 9 km less.
Time taken to cover 9 km = (9/54) hour
= (1/6)*60 minutes
= 10 minutes
Due to stoppages, it covers 9 km less.
Time taken to cover 9 km = (9/54) hour
= (1/6)*60 minutes
= 10 minutes
41233.2 trains starting at the same time from 2 stations 200 km apart and going in opposite direction cross each other at a distance of 110 km from one of the stations. What is the ratio of their speeds ?
11:9
13:9
17:9
21:9
Explanation:
We know total distance is 200 Km
If both trains crossed each other at a distance of 110 km then one train covered 110 km and other 90 km [110+90=200km]
So ratio of their speed = 110:90 = 11:9
We know total distance is 200 Km
If both trains crossed each other at a distance of 110 km then one train covered 110 km and other 90 km [110+90=200km]
So ratio of their speed = 110:90 = 11:9

2 Years
3 Years
4 Years
5 Years
Explanation:
Principal = Rs.1000;
Amount = Rs.1331;
Rate = Rs.10%p.a.
Let the time be n years then,
1000(1+10/100)^n=1331
(11/10)^n=1331/1000
$(1110)^3$=1331/1000
So answer is 3 years
Principal = Rs.1000;
Amount = Rs.1331;
Rate = Rs.10%p.a.
Let the time be n years then,
1000(1+10/100)^n=1331

Rs.51.75
Rs 51.50
Rs 51.25
Rs 51
Explanation:
S.I.=P∗R∗T/100
P=(50∗100)/5∗2=500
Amount=500(1+5/100)^2
500(21/20∗21/20)=551.25
C.I.=551.25−500
=51.25
S.I.=P∗R∗T/100
P=(50∗100)/5∗2=500
Amount=500(1+5/100)^2
500(21/20∗21/20)=551.25
C.I.=551.25−500
=51.25

Rs 600
Rs 625
Rs 650
Rs 675
Explanation:
Let the Sum be P
S.I. = P∗4∗2/100=2P/25
C.I. = P(1+4/100)^2−P
=(676P/625)−P
=51P/625
As, C.I. - S.I = 1
=>51P/625−2P/25=1
=>(51P−50P)625=1
P=625
Let the Sum be P
S.I. = P∗4∗2/100=2P/25
C.I. = P(1+4/100)^2−P
=(676P/625)−P
=51P/625
As, C.I. - S.I = 1
=>51P/625−2P/25=1
=>(51P−50P)625=1
P=625
41242.A sum of money at simple interest amounts to Rs. 2240 in 2 years and to Rs. 2600 in 5 years. What is the principal amount
1000
1500
2000
2500
Explanation:
SI for 3 year = 2600-2240 = 360
SI for 2 year 360/3 * 2 = 240
principal = 2240 - 240 = 2000
SI for 3 year = 2600-2240 = 360
SI for 2 year 360/3 * 2 = 240
principal = 2240 - 240 = 2000
