A4 hr
B4 hr 10min
C4 hr 37min
D4 hr 27min
Answer: Option D
Explanation:Given, car A speed = 40 kmph,
car B speed 60 kmph
Relative speed=(60-40)=20 kmph(as both are in same direction)
when car B started A has already covered distance = 40*2=80m
Time required for both car to be at same position = 80/20 = 4 hr
Additional distance = 9 km
Time required to cover this distance = (9/20)*60=27 min
Therefore, required time = 4hrs 27 min

There are two bottles A and B, each filled with milk and water in the ratio 5:3 and 1:2 respectively. A new mixture is formed by mixing the contents of A and B in the ratio 4:3.What is the ratio of composition of milk and water in the new mixture?
A1:3
B1:2
C1:1
D3:2
Answer: Option C
Explanation:Bottle A mixture: milk = 5/8 & water=3/8
Bottle B mixture: milk = 1/3 & water=2/3
Given New mixture (Bottle A & B) ratio = 4:3
Now milk ratio = (5/8*4/7) + (1/3*3/7) = 1/2
and water = (3/8*4/7) + (2/3*3/7) = 1/2
So, New mixture ration milk : water = 1 : 1
5+1:3+2=6:5

A5.5 cm.
B4.5 cm.
C7.5 cm.
D6.5 c.m.
Answer: Option B
Explanation:volume=l*b*h=6*5*2=60cm^3
now volume is reduced by 19%.therefore 81/100 *60=48.6
now,thickness remains same and let length and breadth be reduced by x%
so,new volume: 2*x/100 *6*x/100 *5=48.6
=>x=90 thus length and width is reduced by 90%
new width =90% of 5 =4.5
