totaling to 16000 cheques
therefore y+3y+4000=16000 cheques
4y+4000=16000 cheques therefore 4y=16000-4000 cheques= 4y=12000cheques
therefore y=12000/4=3000 cheques
monday=3000 cheques

Ques:- A person meets a train at a railway station coming daily at a particular time. One day he is late by 25 minutes, and he meets the train 5 k.m. before the station. If his speed is 12 kmph, what is the speed of the train.
Recent Answer : Added by DK BOSS On 2021-07-30 16:27:20:

Ans: 60 kph

Suppose Person meets the train everyday at 3 PM at Station A.

His speed is 12kph.

So normally he reaches 5 km before the meeting point (pt B) at (5/12 hr = 25 min before) 2:35PM.

But if he is late by 30 min, then he will reach that point (pt B) by 3:05 PM.

Train is traveling at its normal speed so it covers the distance of 5 Km in 5 min starting from Station A and reaches the meeting point (pt B) at 3:05 PM.

So speed of the train is 5KM/5min = 60 kph.
