X-340 = X x 4 x 8/ 100
100X – 34000 = 32X
68X = 34000
X = 34000/68
X= 500.

FYI
When A runs 1000 meters, B runs 900 meters and when B runs 800 meters, C runs 700 meters.
Therefore, when B runs 900 meters, the distance that C runs = (900 x 700)/800 = 6300/8 = 787.5 meters.
So, in a race of 1000 meters, A beats C by (1000 – 787.5) = 212.5 meters to C.
So, in a race of 600 meters, the number of meters by Which A beats C = (600 x 212.5)/1000 = 127.5 meters.

Lets assume total LCM(5,8) = 40units.
As, 5 men or 8 women do equal amount of work in a day,
1 Man does 8units/day and 1 Woman does 5units/day.
3M and 5W in 10 days do (3*8 + 5*5)*10 = 490units
To do 490 units in 14 days, number of Women required = 490/(14*5) = 7
Soldier have to move 0.75 miles to West and then 0.375 miles to South to reach the camp.
How:-
Firstly soldier moving 1 mile to East from camp and then 1/2 miles= 0.50 miles to North .
Then it is moving 1/4 miles =0.25 miles to west
And then 1/8 miles =0.125 miles to South
Now we just have to count the difference and minus the value of camp to East with the value of North to west = 1mile – 0.25miles(1/4) = 0.75 miles
Same case with north and south = 0.50 miles(1/2) – 0.125 miles(1/8) = 0.375 miles
Hence proves to return camp the soldier have to move 0.75 miles to west and 0.375 miles to south
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.
