Q:

Mr. Shankar spends 25% of his monthly salary on household expenditure, 20% of the remaining on children’s education, and the remaining is equally invested in three different schemes. If the amount invested in each scheme is Rs.5600, what is the monthly salary of Shankar ?

A) Rs. 34000 B) Rs. 31245
C) Rs. 24315 D) Rs. 28000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Rs. 28000

Explanation:

Let the monthly salary of Shankar be = Rs.x
Amount invested on expenditure = 25% = x/4;
Remaning amount = 3x/4;
Amount invested on children education = 20% i.e = 3x/20;
Remaining amount = 3x/4 - 3x/20 = 3x/5;
Remaining amount invested in three different schemes i.e is 1/3(3x/5)
=> x/5 = 5600
Therefore x = 28000
Hence, Monthly salary of Shankar is Rs. 28,000.

Q:

Equal distance is covered by a boat in upstream and in downstream in total 5 hours. Sum of speed of a boat in upstream and downstream is 40 km/hr. Speed of boat in still water is 600%
more than the speed of stream. Find theapproximate distance covered by boat in downstream (in km).

A) 45 B) 50
C) 55 D) 60
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 50

Explanation:

let speed of boat= X, speed of stream= Y
Upstream speed= X-Y
Downstream speed= X+Y
Sum of upstream & downstream= (X-Y) +(X+Y)= 2X
So, 2X= 40
X= 20 km/hr
Speed of boat : speed of stream= 600+100 :100= 7:1
So speed of Stream= 20/7 km/hr
ATQ, D/( X-Y) + D/( X+Y) = 5
D/(120/7) + D/(160/7)= 5
D= 480×5/49= 48.97 km= 50 Km(approx)
