Speed Ratio = 1:7/6 = 6:7
Time Ratio = 7:6
1 ——– 7
4 ——— ? 28 m

option D

time = distance / speed
speed = 36*(5/18) m/s=10m/s
distance = 100m
time=100/10s = 10sec

divide 100 by 7, and you get 14.28. (Obviously you aren’t talking about decimals here) and so 14 numbers can be divisible by 7 up to 100.

The answer is 14.

This is more logical …

Let the 1st flag 1 placed at the origin ….
in crossing 8 flags he traveled 7 distances….
s=d/t
=7/8

time for 4 flags t=(d/s)=4/(7/8)=(4*8)/7=4.5714285714285714285714285714286

let the 4 digit number be ABCD.
First Digit is A :
Therefore; according to the question
A=B/3
B=3A
C=A+B=A+3A=4A
D=3B=3(3A)=9A
Since the last Digit is D and it can neither be double-digit nor 0 ;
Therefore ;
A=1;
B=3A=3(1)=3
C=A+B=1+3=4
D=9A=9(1)=9
Therefore, the 4 digit number is 1349.

As it is a right angled triangle so we know the hypotenuse must be 13 and 5 & 13 are base and height (in any order).
Area of triangle = 0.5* base * height = 0.5 * 5 * 12 = 30

4 1 1 4
5 1 1 4
+ 0 1 1 4

let MP = 100x
25% discount = 75x -> SP
Profit% = (Profit/CP)x100
125 = (75x/CP)x100
.: CP = 60x

Now if discount = 10%
SP = 90x
.: Profit% = ((90x-60x)/60x)x100 = 50%

if A is true B has to be true

Answer is 124 because in this series is cube root sequence 2 cube root is 8 ,3 cube root is 24,4 cube root is 64, 5 cube root is 125 but there is 124 which is wrong ,6 cube root is 216 ,7 cube root is 343 .
