In a fort there was sufficient food for 200 soldiers for 31 days. After 27 days, 120 soldiers left the fort. For how many extra days will the rest of the food last for the remaining soldiers?

A) 12 days B) 10 days
C) 8 days D) 6 days

Quantity of food = 200 X 31 = 6200 man-days

Till 27 days, quantity consumed = 27 X 200 = 5400 man-days

Remaining quantity = 6200 –5400 = 800 man days

Remaining soilders = 200 –120 = 80

Let remaining food will be sufficient for x days⇒5400 + 80x = 6200⇒x= 10 days

Q:

Two cars, a Maruthi and a Toyato, start at the same time in opposite directions from two distinct points A and B. Starting from A, the Maruthi reaches B in 6 hrs 20 minutes and the Toyato starting from B, reaches A in 4 hrs 45 minutes. What is the speed of the Toyato, if the speed of the Maruthi is 60 Km/h?

A) 75 kmph B) 80 kmph
C) 86 kmph D) 90 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 80 kmph

Explanation:

Let the distance between A and B = D

Given the speed of maruthi = 60 kmph

Maruthi reaches from A to B in 6 hrs 20 min = 6 + 20/60 = 6 1/3 hrs

Now, the distance between A & B = D = speed x time = 60 x 19/3 = 380 kms

As the distance is same for toyato also,

given time for toyato = 4 hrs 45 min = 4 + 45/60 = 4 3/4 = 19/4 hrs

speed of toyato = distance/time = 380/19/4 = 380 x 4/19 = 80 kmph.
