48) Answer: C 30a – 60 = 24a
Initial quantity of milk = 500 * 3/2 = 300 liters a = 10
Initial quantity of water = 500 – 300 = 200 liters Speed of Train A = 3 * 10 = 30 m/s
20% removed = 500 * 20/100 = 100 liters Speed of Train B = 2 * 10 = 20 m/s
The ratio of the quantity of milk to water in the Required sum = 30 + 20 = 50 m/s
final mixture = 50:(100 – 50) = 50:50 = 1:1
(300 – 100 * 3/5)/(200 – 100 * 2/5 + x) = 1/1 51) Answer: B
240/(160 + x) = 1/1 150/100 * A = B
x = 80 A/B = 2/3
2x + 10 = 2 * 80 + 10 = 170 A = 2x, B = 3x, C = 105 – 3x
2x * 20/100 + 6 = (105 – 3x) * 20/100
49) Answer: B 2x/5 + 6 = (105 – 3x)/5
Let the speed of the boat in still water be B 2x/5 + 6 = 21 – 3x/5
km/hr and the speed of the current be C km/hr. 6 = 21 – 5x/5
(B + C) * 6/(B * 5) = 3/2 x = 15
4B + 4C = B A = 30, B = 45, C = 105 – 45 = 60
B/C = 4/1 A + B + C = 30 + 45 + 60 = 135
B – C = 18
4C – C = 18 52) Answer: A
3C = 18 Amount paid by B = x + 600
C = 6 km/hr Amount paid by C = (x + 600) * 85/100
B = 4 * 6 = 24 km/hr (x + 600) * 85/100 – x = 150
(x + 600) * 17/20 – x = 150
50) Answer: D 17x + 10200 – 20x = 3000
Speed of Train A = 3a m/s 3x = 7200
Speed of Train B = 2a m/s x = Rs.2400
Length of the Train A = x m Amount paid by B = 2400 + 600 = Rs.3000

1000 * 1/2 = 500 7x/5 + 21x/20 = 7350
500 ÷ 1 = 500 (28x + 21x)/20 = 7350
500 * 2 = 1000 49x = 7350 * 20
