2. An aeroplane covers a certain distance at a speed of 240 kmph in 5 hours. To cover the same
distance in 1 hours, it must travel at a speed of:

A.300 kmph
B.360 kmph
C.600 kmph
D
720 kmph
.
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Distance = (240 x 5) = 1200 km.
Speed = Distance/Time
Speed = 1200/(5/3) km/hr. [We can write 1 hours as 5/3 hours]
3
Required 1200 x k = 720 km/hr.
speed = 5 m/hr
3. If a person walks at 14 km/hr instead of 10 km/hr, he would have walked 20 km more. The
actual distance travelled by him is:
A.50 km
B.56 km
C.70 km
D
80 km
.
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Let the actual distance travelled be x km.
x x + 20
Then, =
10 14
14x = 10x + 200
4x = 200
x = 50 km.
4. A train can travel 50% faster than a car. Both start from point A at the same time and reach

the trip was reduced by 200 km/hr and the time of flight increased by 30 minutes. The duration
of the flight is:
A.1 hour
B.2 hours

C.230 km
D.234 km
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
(1/2) (1/2)
x + x = 10
21 24
x x

15x = 168 x 20
168 x
20 = 224 km.
x= 15
8. The ratio between the speeds of two trains is 7 : 8. If the second train runs 400 km in 4 hours,
then the speed of the first train is:
A.70 km/hr
B.75 km/hr
C.84 km/hr
D.87.5 km/hr
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Let the speed of two trains be 7x and 8x km/hr.
Then, 8x 400
= 100
= 4
100
= 12.5
x= 8
Speed of first train = (7 x 12.5) km/hr = 87.5 km/hr.
