Ques:- Four sisters- Suvarna, Tara, Uma and Vibha are playing a game such that the loser doubles the money of each of the other players from her share. They played four games and each sister lost one game in alphabetical order. At the end of fourth game, each sister has Rs. 32. Who started with the highest amount?
Recent Answer : Added by Vinay K On 2022-09-24 14:33:35:

Let Suvarna, Tara, Uma and Vibha be S,T,U,V respectively
initially in the beginning each persons share be
V = x U = y T = z
S = w = (x+y+z+32) Reason: She has to double others share, so she should have each and everyone’s share and still should be left out with 32

after 1st Round of game
S loses and is out with 32 and doubles the others share
V = 2x U = 2y T = 2z

After 2nd Round of game
T loses and is out with 32 and doubles the others share
V = 4x U = 4y
This means T had 2z = 2x + 2y + 32
After 3rd round of game
U looses and is out with 32 and doubles others share
V = 8x
This means U initially has 4y = 4x + 32
In the end V = 8x = 32

Solving this we get x = 4, y = 12, z = 32 and w = 80
There fore Suvarna had highest share in the beginning

Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 11:59:19:

A is travelling at 50kmph, B is travelling at 40
kmph……..according to the formula
time taken to meet = distance between them
———————-
relative speed of two vehicles
so, time taken to meet= 15/(50-40)=15/10=3/2hrs

Ques:- There was a race between 3 people. Me, Doug and Anne. When I take 21 steps the distance covered is equal to Doug's 24 steps and Anne's 28 steps. I take 6 steps to every 7 steps of Doug and 8 steps of Anne. Who won the race?
Recent Answer : Added by Kalyani Nanaware On 2022-08-14 16:43:09:

Doug won the race
Explanation-
The ratio of steps covered by me, Doug, and Anne is = 6:7:8

Since Distance covered in Me 21 steps = Distance covered by Doug 24 steps = Distance covered by Anne 28 steps

LCM (21, 24, 28) = 168

For a distance of 168 units, the ratio of the distance covered in each step is;
= 8 : 7 : 6
Therefore the ratio of speeds is;
= 8×6: 7×7: 6×8
= 48 : 49 : 48

Here, the speed of the Doug is more than the speed of me and Anne
Hence, Doug won the race
