Answers

Average of number of government companies in state M and N is 540 which is 60

less than the number of private companies in state O.

Number of government companies in states M and N together = 2*540=1080

Number of private companies in state O = 540 + 60 = 600

Number of private companies in state M is 87.5% more than the number of

government companies in same state and 75 more than the number of
privatecompanies in state O.

Number of private companies in state M = 75+600=675

Number of government companies in state M = 675 *100/(100+ 87.5) = 360

Then, number of government companies in state N = 1080 - 360 = 720

Number of government companies in state M is x% of the number of government

companies in state N.

360 = x% of 720

x=50

In state O, number of semi-government companies is 30 more than the number of

private companies.

Number of semi government companies in stateO= 30+600=630

There are total 870 semi-government companies in state M and O together.

Number of semi-government companies in state M = 870-630 = 240

Number of semi-government companies in state M is y more than the number of

semi-government companies in state N and (y+ 12) less than the number of
government companies in state M.

240 = 360-(y+12)
y=108

Then, number of semi-government companies in state N = 240-108= 132

The ratio of number of semi-government companies in state N and the number of

government companies in state O is 4: 15 respectively.

Number of government companies in state O = 132* 15/4= 495

State Private companies Semi-government Government companies

companies

M 675 240 360

N 132 720

O 600 630 495

1. E)
Total number of employees in all government companies in states N and O
together

= 1500*720+ 2000 * 495

= 20,70,000

2. D)

Number of semi-government and government companies together in state M =

240+ 360= 600

And the number of government companies in state N = 720

Therefore, ratio = 600: 720 = 5: 6

3.A)
Number of semi-government companies in state M and N together in
2022=240+132 = 372

And the number of private companies in state O in 2022 = 600

Therefore, difference = 600 - 372 = 228 = 216 + 12 = 2y + 12

4.C)

Number of government companies in state W in 2023 = 495 + 30+ 20% of 630 =

651

5. B)

In 2022:

Number of private companies in state N = (100+25) % of 360 = 450

Number of semi-government companies in state O = 630

Therefore, ratio = 450: 630

(A) 42 hours

(B) 48 hours

(C) 50 hours

(D) 54 hours

(E) None of these

Answers

For Boat S, Upstream Distance = Downstream Distance = A km

A/36 + A/60 = 32

8A/180 = 32

A = 720 km

Total Distance travelled = 720 + 720 = 1440 km

For Boat P, Upstream Distance = (A + 120) - 480 = 840 - 480 = 360 km

Downstream Speed = 480/(20 - 360/30) = 480/8 = 60 km/hr

For Boat Q, Upstream Distance = 720 - 144 = 576 km

Downstream Distance = 2 × 720 - 576 = 864 km

Upstream Speed = 576/(24 - 864/72) = 576/12 = 48 km/hr

For Boat R, Downstream Distance = 720 - 72 = 648 km

Upstream Distance = 1278 - 648 = 630 km

Total Time taken = 630/63 + 648/81 = 10 + 8 = 18 hours

For Boat T, Downstream Distance = (720 + 288) - 432 = 576 km

Downstream Speed = 576/(16 - 432/54) = 72 km/hr

Boat P Q R S T

Upstream speed 30 48 63 36 54

Downstream Speed 60 72 81 60 72

Upstream Distance 360 576 630 720 432

Downstream Distance 480 864 648 720 576

Total Distance 840 1440 1278 1440 1008

Upstream Time 12 12 10 20 8

Downstream Time 8 12 8 12 8

Total Time 20 24 18 32 16

1. Ans. (B)

New total distance covered by Boat P = 60 × (8 + 240/60) + 30 × (12 - 180/60) = 60

× (8 + 4) + 30 × (12 - 3) = 990 km

Difference = 990 - 840 = 150 km

2. Ans. (B)

From Statement I, For Boat T, Upstream Speed : Downstream Speed = 54 : 72 = 3 :

4 (True)

From Statement II, For Boat R, Upstream Time : Downstream Time = 10: 8=5:4
(False)

From Statement III, Downstream Distance covered by Q : Downstream Distance

covered by S = 864 : 720 = 6 : 5 (True)

Only II
3. Ans. (B)

Upstream Speed of Boat X = (60 + 72 + 81 + 60 + 72)/5 = 345/5 = 69 km/hr

Time taken in Upstream = (12 + 12 + 10 + 20 + 8)/5 = 62/5 = 12.4 hours

Distance travelled in Upstream = 69 × 12.4 = 855.6 km

4. Ans. (A)

Speed of Boat S in still water = (36 + 60)/2 = 96/2 = 48 km/hr

Time taken by Boat S to travel total distance in still water = 1440/48 = 30 hours

Difference = 32 - 30 = 2 hour = 120 minutes

5. Ans. (C)

Y/60 - Y/72 = 180/60

Y = 1080 km

Time taken by Boat P= (1080 - 216)/30 + (1080 +192)/60

50 hours
