Ques:- The difference between a two-digit number and the number obtained by interchanging the digits is 36. What is the difference between the sum and the difference of the digits of the number if the ratio between the digits of the number is 1 : 2 ?
Recent Answer : Added by Alisha Ravika Kar On 2022-08-14 16:43:27:

The number is greater than the number obtained in reversing the digits and the ten’s digit is greater than the unit’s digit
Let ten’s and unit’s digit be 2x and x respectively
Then, (10×2x+x)−(10x+2x)=36
9x=36
x=4
Required difference=(2x+x)−(2x−x)=2x=8

previous ans wrong again..!!!!
first find x its 2 hours

jill takes one hr to come down and jack takes 3 hrs so x
is 2 hours….
And while going up jack goes at 1.5km/hr and jill goes at
0.75 km hr so to travel 3 km they take 2 hrs and 4 hrs
respectively…!!! x again is 2 hrs…
so jack totally takes 5 hrs to travel 6 km
therfore speed is 6/5 km per hour
thats is 1.2 km per hour is the correct answer

Ques:- Mr. T has a wrong weighing pan. One arm is lengthier than other. 1 kilogram on left balances 8 melons on right. 1 kilogram on right balances 2 melons on left. If all melons are equal in weight,what is the weight of a single melon?
Recent Answer : Added by samarth khare On 2021-06-23 17:56:06:

Suppose the lengthier arm of weighing pan is of x cm and other arm is y cm .Also let weight if each melon be m kg.
so applying equilibrium of torque principles ,we get
case 1:-
1x-8my=0
case 2:-
2mx-1y=0
using case 1 equation , we substitute value of x into case 2 equation;
16mmy-1y=0
(16mm-1)y=0
y is length of weighing arm and cannot be 0,
therefore ,
16mm-1 =0
16mm=1
mm=1/16
m= square root (1/16)
m=+-1/4
m is weight of melon and cant be negative.
Hence m, weight of one melon is 1/4 kg
