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?

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

Recent Answer : Added by DK BOSS On 2021-07-17 06:18:46:
The first number is 36
Step-by-step explanation:
let their common factor be ‘x’
hence,
the ratio be 3x/5x
hence, by condition;
(3x-9)/(5x-9)=9/17 ch upu
9(5x-9)=17(3x-9)
45x-81=51x-153
153-81=51x-45x
72=6x
x=72/6
x=12
the first number is 3x=3×12=36

Ques:- There are two candles of equal lengths and of different thickness. The thicker one lasts of six hours. The thinner 2 hours less than the thicker one. Ramesh lights the two candles at the same time. When he went to bed he saw the thicker one is twice the length of the thinner one. How long ago did Ramesh light the two candles?

3 hours ago.
Thin candle melts 3/4 in 3 hours leaving 1/4
Where as in the same time thick candle melts 3/6 leaving 3/6 which is 1/2. Now thick candle is exactly twice than the thin candle.
Or via modeling:
We need to find time at which the length of the thin candle is half the thick candle. Let x be the time. Thin candle melts at 1/4 an hour and thick candle melts at 1/6 an hour. In x hours they melt at x/4 and x/6 respectively. What’s left will be 1 – x/4 and 1 – x/6. We need to find x at which :
2 * (1 – (x/4)) = 1 – (x/6)
This equation results in x = 3

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
