Note :- we have written the answer from right to left. 2. A Shortcut method If a train passes a pole/stone/man etc. in x seconds and a platform/bridge/tunnel etc. of l meters in y seconds, then The length of the train =xl / (y-x) Mtrs. So, here the length of the train = 100 Meters 3. D 4. A

= (10 + 15 + 1.5) = 26.5% 17. C Speed of the train relative to man = 30 + 6 = 36 Km/hr = 10 M/sec So, the length of the train = 10 6 = 60 Mtrs. (Because it crosses the man in 06 seconds) Speed of the train = 30 5/18 = 25/3 Mtrs/sec Distance travelled in 27 sec = 27 25/3 = 225 Mtrs So, the length of the platform = 225 60 = 165 Mtrs 18. A % profit = 20 5 20 5/100 = 14% 19. B Required % = 50/(100+50) 100 = 33.33% 20. A You should know that if a person sells two similar articles at a gain of x% and x% of loss, he finally lands up in the loss. Loss% = (x2/100)% 21. A Full method:At 3 Oclock, the hour hand is at 3 and the minute hand is at 12. It means that they are 15 mins. spaces apart. To, be together, the minute hand must gain 15 mins over the hour hand. As, we know that, 55 mins is gained by minute hand in 60 mins over hour hand. So, to gain 15 mins - 60/55 15 = 16 4/11 Mins is required. So, the answer will be 16 4/11 Mins will be required. Shortcut Between n Oclock and (n + 1) Oclock, the two hands of a clock will coincide at (60n/11) Mins past n. So, in our case (60 3 / 11) Mins past 3 = 16 4 /11 Mins. 22.
