Question #1
A man covers 40% of his journey at 40 km/h, 50% of the remaining at 30 km/h and the rest at 15 km/h. What is his average speed for the whole journey?
A. 25 km/h
B. 24 km/h
C. 30 km/h
D. 28 km/h

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Let total distance be 100 km. First part: 40 km at 40 km/h => time = 1 hour. Remaining distance = 60 km. Second part: 50% of 60 = 30 km at 30 km/h => time = 1 hour. Remaining distance = 30 km. Third part: 30 km at 15 km/h => time = 2 hours. Total time = 1 + 1 + 2 = 4 hours. Average speed = 100 / 4 = 25 km/h.

Question #2
In a 300-meter dash race, X completes the track in 33 seconds and Y completes it in 36 seconds. By what distance does X beat Y?
A. 30 meters
B. 28 meters
C. 25 meters
D. 22 meters

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Speed of Y = 300 / 36 = 25/3 m/s. Distance covered by Y when X crosses the finish line at 33 seconds = (25/3) * 33 = 25 * 11 = 275 meters. Winning margin = 300 - 275 = 25 meters.

Question #3
Two cars A and B travel from one city to another at speeds of 72 km/h and 90 km/h respectively. If car A takes 1 hour more than car B for the journey, what is the distance between the two cities?
A. 400 km
B. 360 km
C. 500 km
D. 450 km

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Let distance be d. d/72 - d/90 = 1 => (5d - 4d)/360 = 1 => d/360 = 1 => d = 360 km.
