Friends,
The Answer given by ‘Gaurav Sharma’ is correct and
the approach (bottom to top) suggested by ‘Shailesh’ is
good. But with minor correction we can arrive the solution
using this approach:
After 5th loot, No. of breads left = 3
after 4th loot, no. of breads left = (3+0.5)x2 = 7
after 3rd loot, no. of breads left = (7+0.5)x2 = 15
after 2nd loot, no. of breads left = (15+0.5)x2 = 31
after 1st loot, no. of breads left = (31+0.5)x2 = 63
So, before 1st loot, no. of breads left = (63+0.5)x2 = 127
Ques:- A computer shop consists 3 brands laptop. Laptop of brand A is sold 3/16, B is sold 1/16 and C is sold 3/4 then what fraction is sold by the shop in all.
Recent Answer : Added by jay On 2022-08-14 16:45:19:
Answer: 1 / 3
Lets say each brand had 16 laptops
So Sold : A = 3 , B= 1 and C = 12 , total sold: 16 ,
Since each brand has 16 , total = 48
so 16/ 48 = 1/3 is the sold fraction

Ques:- A person meets a train at a railway station coming daily at a particular time. One day he is late by 25 minutes, and he meets the train 5 k.m. before the station. If his speed is 12 kmph, what is the speed of the train.
Recent Answer : Added by DK BOSS On 2021-07-30 16:27:20:
Ans: 60 kph
Suppose Person meets the train everyday at 3 PM at Station A.
His speed is 12kph.
So normally he reaches 5 km before the meeting point (pt B) at (5/12 hr = 25 min before) 2:35PM.
But if he is late by 30 min, then he will reach that point (pt B) by 3:05 PM.
Train is traveling at its normal speed so it covers the distance of 5 Km in 5 min starting from Station A and reaches the meeting point (pt B) at 3:05 PM.
So speed of the train is 5KM/5min = 60 kph.
