Ques:- There are two candles of equal lengths and of different thickness. The thicker one lasts of six hours. The thinner 2 hours less than the thicker one. Ramesh lights the two candles at the same time. When he went to bed he saw the thicker one is twice the length of the thinner one. How long ago did Ramesh light the two candles .

let x be lenghth of candles.
thicker one—- in 1 hr 1/6th will go.
thinner one— in 1 hr 1/4th will go.
let he lit for n hrs.
so in n hrs thicker one goes n/6.
and thinner one goes n/4.
so remainini length are x-n/6 and x-n/4.so x-n/6=2(x-n/4)
implie n=3x. if x=1 n=3hrs.

Ques:- In the month of october in a year has exactly four Mondays and four Fridays, find what day of week will be on the 20th of November of that year.
Ques:- There is a 50m long army platoon marching ahead. The last person in the platoon wants to give a letter to the first person leading the platoon. So while the platoon is marching he runs ahead, reaches the first person and hands over the letter to him and without stopping he runs and comes back to his original position. In the mean time the whole platoon has moved ahead by 50m. The question is how much distance did the last person cover in that time. Assuming that he ran the whole distance with uniform speed.
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:00:37:
The last person covered 120.71 meters.
It is given that the platoon and the last person moved with
uniform speed. Also, they both moved for the identical
amount of time. Hence, the ratio of the distance they
covered – while person moving forward and backword – are
equal.
Let’s assume that when the last person reached the first
person, the platoon moved X meters forward.
Thus, while moving forward the last person moved (50+X)
meters whereas the platoon moved X meters.
Similarly, while moving back the last person moved [50-(50-
X)] X meters whereas the platoon moved (50-X) meters.
Now, as the ratios are equal,
(50+X)/X = X/(50-X)
(50+X)*(50-X) = X*X
Solving, X=35.355 meters
Thus, total distance covered by the last person
= (50+X) + X
= 2*X + 50
= 2*(35.355) + 50
= 120.71 meters
Note that at first glance, one might think that the total
distance covered by the last person is 100 meters, as he
ran the total lenght of the platoon (50 meters) twice.
TRUE, but that’s the relative distance covered by the last
person i.e. assuming that the platoon is stationary.

Ques:- A person goes 4/5 of his usual speed reaches 10 min late to his destinaton, time taken?
Recent Answer : Added by N On 2021-05-18 10:48:11:
time is inversely proportional to speed.
So if speed taken is 4/5 of usual speed, time taken will be 5/4 of usual time
and the difference between time is 10 min
So,
(5/4)t -t=10 min
usual time,t=40 min
late time=40+10=50 min

Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:00:33:
Let the journey distance be : x miles
Now x/40+x/30=8 (time=distance/speed)
Solving this for x we get. x=960/7
therefore, x=137(approx)
