Time needed to reach the station at 4 km/hr = (4x​+602​) hrs But 3x​+301​=4x​−301​⇒3x​−4x​=−302​=151​
⇒124x−3x​=151​⇒12x​=151​⇒x=1512​=54​ km

B. 24%
C. 25%
D. 28%
Recent Answer : Added by Aayush Lodha On 2022-03-09 16:31:45:

LET ACTUAL PRICE BE 100 RS(FOR CONVINIENCE)
THEREFORE IF PRICE IS CUT BY 20%
THEREFORE NEW PRICE=100-20=80 RS
THEREFORE WE NEED TO ADD X% TO 80 RS TO MAKE IT 20 RS AND ADD IT TO 80 TO MAKE IT 100RS
THEREFORE, 80X/100 = 20
I.E. 4X/5=20
THEREFORE x=20*5/4
=5*5
=25
HENCE 25% OF PRICE SHOULD BE ADDED TO MAKE THE PRICE EQUAL TO THE ACTUAL PRICE.

Placing all of the marbles in the jars, how can you maximize the chances of a red marble being picked? What are the exact odds of getting a red marble using your scheme?
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:01:41:

put 1 red marble in one jar and all the rest (99) in the
other.
This gives you 50% from the first jar (if they pick that
jar they will get red 100% of the time). For the other jar
the chances are 49/99 or 49.494949%. Divide that by 2 and
its 24.7474%. Total odds are 50% plus 24.7474% = 74.7474%
