10) Answer: C x=6
Total number of students who did not appear for Speed of boat after decreased 33(1/3)% = 3 * 6 *
JEE exam in 2001=960-640=320 200/300 = 12 kmph
Speed of stream after increased 33(1/3)% = Required time=35/5=7 hours

19) Answer: B
16) Answer: B Let the length of Train A =X(in meter)
LCM (10, 24)=120 (75-12)*5/18=X/12
C alone fill the tank=1/24 63 * 5/18 * 12=X
The efficiency of C=120/24=5 units/hour X=210
The efficiency of A=160% of 5=8 units/hour Let, the length of Train B =Y
A alone fill the tank=120/8=15 hours (75-45)*5/18=(210+Y)/48
B alone fill the tank=1/10-1/15=(2-1)/30=1/30 30 * 5/18 * 48=(210+Y)
The efficiency of B=120/30=4 units/hours 210+Y=400
Pipe A, B and C together fill the tank in 5 Y=190 meter
hours=(8+4+5)*5=17*5=85 units
The remaining tank=120-85=35 units 20) Answer: D
Length of rectangle = 4x Breadth of the rectangle = 5 * 3 = 15 m
