  1. How much time will Train P take to cross Train Q (from the moment they meet) running in opposite directions (towards each other) ?
    statement I: The respective ratio of speeds of Train P and Train Q is 3 : 4. The sum of the lengths of Train P and Train Q is 700 metre.
    statement II: Train P can cross a signal pole in 12 seconds. It can cross 600  metre long station in 25 seconds.
    A) Only I
    B) Both I and II
    C) Only II
    D) Either I or II
    E) Neither I nor II

    View Answer
      Option E
    Solution:
    From statement I:
    Relative speed = 3x + 4x = 7x units
    Sum of Length of trains = 700 m
    Required time = 700/7x = no result
    From statement II:
    speed of train P = x/12 = (x + 600)/25
    => 25x = 12x + 7200
    => 13x = 7200
    => x = 7200/13

    C)Only I and II
    D) None of these
    E) Only III

    View Answer
      Option A
    Solution:
    Let the area of the hall be x m^2.
    Then , total material cost  = Rs. 150x
    Labour cost = Rs. 3000
    Therefore,Total cost = 150x + 3000 = 14500
    From this we get the value of x.
    Hence , all the three statements are required.

    E) Either I and III or II alone

    View Answer
      Option D
    Solution:
    A+B+C+D+E = 90
    From statement I : B+C+D+E = 72
    From statement II: B = E – 2 and E = D – 6
    so, D = E + 6
    From statement III: D = B + 6 and D = E + 4
    Combining all three statements, we get the age of C.
