5M + 2B = 4(1M + 1B)

5M + 2B = 4M + 4B

1M = 2B

The required ratio of work done by a man and a boy = 2:1

The day of the week repeats every 7 days.

Given today is Friday. Again Friday is repeated on the 7th day, 14th,... on 7 multiple days.

Hence, Friday is on the 63rd day, as 63 is multiple of 7.

Now, the required day of the week on the 65th day is Sunday.

7x5: 5xk = 7:10
k = 10 months

Work done by P alone in one day = 1/6th of the total work done by Q alone in one day = 1/3(of that done by P in one day) = 1/3(1/6 of the total) = 1/18 of the total. 

Work done by P and Q, working together in one day = 1/6 + 1/18  = 4/18 = 2/9 

They would take 9/2 days = 4 (1/2) days to complete the work working together.

Let the pipe B be closed after 'K' minutes.

30/16 - K/24 = 1 => K/24 = 30/16 - 1 = 14/16

=> K = 14/16 x 24 = 21 min.

Here in the above given question, the mistake is "the is reapeated twice" before mistake.

we can assume that Amar join into business after x months. So Amar money was invest into  (12 – x ) months.

76000×1257000×(12-x)=21

--> 912000 = 114000 ( 12 – x ) = 114 ( 12 – x ) = 912

--> x = 4

After 4 months amar join the business.

Distance d = 1200km
let S be the speed

he walks 15 hours a day(i.e 24 - 9)
so totally he walks for 70 x 15 = 1050hrs.

S = 1200/1050 => 120/105 = 24/21 => 8/7kmph

given 1 1/2 of previous speed
so 3/2 * 8/7= 24/14 = 12/7

New speed = 12/7kmph

Now he rests 10 hrs a day that means he walks 14 hrs a day.

time = 840 x 7 /12 => 490 hrs
=> 490/14 = 35 days

So he will take 35 days to cover 840 km.
