In one hour, only 7 of the cistern can be filled due to leak in its bottom
1 1 1
∴ In one hour − = of the cistern is empty
6 7 42
∴ The whole cistern will be emptied in 42 hrs

S43. Ans.(b)
Sol.
Let D be the required distance
D D 15+15
So, − =

Or, D = 6 km

S44. Ans.(b)
Sol.
Let, M = 3K, W = 2K
∴ 3K + 2K = 45 ⇒ K = 9
⇒ Milk = 27 litres and water = 18 litres
Now suppose x litres of water is added to the mixture such that
27 9
= ⇒ 162 + 9𝑥 = 297
18 + 𝑥 11
⇒ 9𝑥 = 135 ⇒ 𝑥 = 15

S45. Ans.(a)
Sol.
Let the speed of the current be x Km/h and speed of the person in still water be y km/h.
∴y+x=8
y–x=6
⇒ y = 7, x = 1
∴ Speed of the current = 1 Km/h.

S46. Ans.(a)
Sol.
Let the father’s age be x years and age of his children be a and b years
𝑥
∴ (𝑎 + 𝑏) = 3
And (𝑎 + 𝑏) + 20 + 20 = 𝑥 + 20
𝑥
⇒ + 20 = 𝑥
