The last person covered 120.71 meters.
It is given that the platoon and the last person moved with
uniform speed. Also, they both moved for the identical
amount of time. Hence, the ratio of the distance they
covered – while person moving forward and backword – are
equal.
Let’s assume that when the last person reached the first
person, the platoon moved X meters forward.
Thus, while moving forward the last person moved (50+X)
meters whereas the platoon moved X meters.
Similarly, while moving back the last person moved [50-(50-
X)] X meters whereas the platoon moved (50-X) meters.
Now, as the ratios are equal,
(50+X)/X = X/(50-X)
(50+X)*(50-X) = X*X
Solving, X=35.355 meters
Thus, total distance covered by the last person
= (50+X) + X
= 2*X + 50
= 2*(35.355) + 50
= 120.71 meters
Note that at first glance, one might think that the total
distance covered by the last person is 100 meters, as he
ran the total lenght of the platoon (50 meters) twice.
TRUE, but that’s the relative distance covered by the last
person i.e. assuming that the platoon is stationary.
2, 6, 12, 72, 824
2
6*2=12
12*6=72
72*12=864
= 100 + 100 = 200 m
Time taken by train = 10 sec.
∵ Speed = Distance/Time
⇒ Speed of train = 200/10 = 20 m/sec.
∴ Speed of train = 20 × 18/5 = 72 kmph.

6 pairs of earrings. So 12 earrings.
The total has to be 26, so let’s say there’s 6 pairs of earrings and the number of pairs has to be 4 less than the number of rings. So that would make 10 rings. The 10 rings has to be 2 1/2 greater than the number of pins. So you would divide 10/2.5 = 4 Pins. That would equate to a total of 12 earrings, 10 rings, and 4 pins. A total of 26 pieces.
X= pigeon
Y= hares
X+Y= 200
2x+4y=580
By solving y= 90
X=110
So Hares= 90
I think speed of printing per minute has nothing do to with how long printer being at work.
If “given day” = 8 hours.
8h = 480m
x = 176400 / 480 = 367.5 lines per minute.

because if passengers will occupy 3 seats, per head amount
payable will be 26.89.80.67 can not be divisible other than
3 and 26.89. so the,
Number of occupied seats will be 3
Number of unoccupied seats will be 40-3=37

Fathers before age=3*before sons age—-(1)
After 2.5 years..
Fathers before age+2.5 years =2.5*sons age—-(2)
Substitute (1) in (2),
3*sons before age+2.5 years=2.5*sons age
0.5*sons age=2.5 years
Sons before age=5years
So current age after 2.5 years,
Sons before age+2.5 =5+2.5=7.5 years
