M + 6 = 2(D+6)+9
M - 2D = 15
Solving,
2D = 18
D = 9
M = 33
M : D = 11 : 3

Question 18

Question 20

A train 125m long passes a man, running at 5 km/hr in the same direction in which the train is going in 10 seconds. The speed of the train is ?

A	50 km/hr
B	55 km/hr
C	45 km/hr
D	54 km/hr

Question 20 Explanation: 

Speed of the train relative to man = 125/10 m/sec
=> 25/2 m/sec
=> 25/2 * 18/5 km/hr
=> 45 km/hr
Let the speed of the train be x km/hr
Then, relative speed = (x - 5) km/hr
=> x - 5 = 45
=> x = 50 km/hr

Question 21

A	4%
B	2%
C	8%
D	2%

Question 23 Explanation: 

Let the principal be Rs. x
Simple interest = x * 30 / 100 = 3x / 10
T = 100 * SI / PR = 100 * (3x / 10) / x * 15 = 2%
Alternatively, this can be solved by considering
principal amount to be Rs. 100
Then simple interest becomes Rs. 30
Then, T = 100 * 30 / 100 * 15 = 2%

3.87 - 2.59 = (3 + 0.87) - (2 + 0.59)
= (3 + 87/99) - (2 + 59/99)
= 1+(87/99 – 59/99 )
= 1+(28/99) = 1.28

C	360
D	540

Question 29 Explanation: 

Speed = (78 * 5/18) m/sec = 65/3 m/sec
Time = 1 minute = 60 seconds
Let the length of the tunnel be x metres
Then, (800 + x) / 60 = 65 / 3
3(800 + x) = 3900 x = 500

Question 30

Question 32

A vessel of capacity 90 litres is fully filled with pure milk. Nine litres of milk is removed from the vessel and replaced with water. Nine litres of the solution thus formed is removed and replaced with water. Find the quantity of pure milk in the final milk solution?

A	72
B	72.9
C	73.8
D	74.7

Question 32 Explanation: 

Let the initial quantity of milk in vessel be T litres
Let us say y litres of the mixture is taken out and replaced by water for n times, alternatively
Quantity of milk finally in the vessel is then given by [(T- y) /T]n * T
For the given problem, T = 90, y = 9 and n = 2
Hence, quantity of milk finally in the vessel
= [(90 - 9) /90]2 (90) = 72.9 litres

C	10 : 11 : 20
D	3 : 3 : 10

Question 39 Explanation: 

Let A = 2k, B = 3k and C = 5k
A's new salary = (115 / 100) of 2k = (115 / 100) x 2k = 23k / 10
B's new salary = (110 / 100) of 3k = (110 / 100) x 3k = 33k / 10
C's new salary = (120 / 100) of 5k = (120 / 100) x 5k = 6k
New ratio = [23k / 10 : 33k / 10 : 6k] = 23 : 33 : 60
