51. Answer: A 5 years ago, the age of A and B is in the ratio =
Class A: 6:7
Total = 360 The age of B, 8 years hence = 48 years
X = 1/3 * 360 = 120 The present age of B = 40 years
Total number of students in y and z = 360 – 120 The present age of A = [(35/7) * 6] + 5 = 35
= 240 years
Y = 240 * 2/3 = 160 Given,
Z = 240 * 1/3 = 80 Let the present age of D be x,
Class B: A + B + C + D = 29 * 4
Total = 390 35 + 40 + x + 15 + x = 116
z = 50/100 * (8x + 5x) = 6.5x 2x + 90 = 116
x = 8/(8 + 5 + 6.5) * 390 = 160 2x = 26
y = 5/8 * 160 = 100 x = 13
z = 6.5/8 * 160 = 130 The present age of D = 13 years
Class C:
Total = 2/3 * 390 = 260 57. Answer: C

A fills in 8 hours = 8/20 = 2/5 CP = 100x
Remaining work = 1 – 2/5 = 3/5 MP = 100x * 120/100 = 120x
B filled 3/5 of the tank in 18 hours. 120x – 100 = 100x * 110/100
B alone fills the whole tank in = 5/3 * 18 = 30 x = 10
