the ratio is 4 : 3
so -> let’s suppose a case where multiplying both sides for the same number, the sum of the result will be 28 …

4 * 4 = 16
4 * 3 = 12
16 + 12 = 28

in 8 years they will be respectvely 24 and 20
which is the same as 6/5

given distance of the train along the wind is 695
and againt the wind is 498
and time = distance/speed
as we know that time is equal in both the cases hence equate
695/s1=498/s2———–(1);
where s1=speed of the plane + speed of the wind
and s2=speed of the plane -speed of the wind
given that speed of the wind is 21k/h
s1=sp+21
s2=sp-21
substitu in eq 1
we get the answer as 27.17(app)

Answer is 400.(14^2=196, 16^2=256, 18^2=324, 20^2=400.)

600

15,25

24kmph

time taken = x/40 + 2x/20
=> x=8
so, 3x = 24

In plan A 7500/- and other amounts in plan B

Suppose that total 100 employees are in company….. out of that 35 are man and remaining 65 are women.
20% of man 35 = 20*35/100
40% of women = 40*65/100
total employees = 7+26 = 33 out of 100
so, Ans = 33 %

Let the journey distance be : x miles
Now x/40+x/30=8 (time=distance/speed)
Solving this for x we get. x=960/7
therefore, x=137(approx)
(137.14 exact)

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

Answer: Option C two

8men=6days
Xmen=1/2days
M1=8,D1=6
M2=X,D2=1/2
Formula:
M1*D1=M2*D2
8*6=X*(1/2)
X=8*6*2
X=96
Answer=96

Ans is 2(Prime numbers)

Sum of 5 consecutive nos is 35

so X + (X+1) + (X+2) + (X+3)+ (X+4) = 35

5X + 10 = 35

X = 5

So the 5 consecutive numbers are : 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

The Prime numbers are 5 and 7
