Question #1
A person can row 10 km/h in still water. If the speed of the river current is 3 km/h, find the time taken to row 28 km upstream.
A. 3 hours
B. 5 hours
C. 4 hours
D. 6 hours

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Upstream speed = 10 - 3 = 7 km/h. Time taken = 28 / 7 = 4 hours.

Question #2
A merchant van covers 120 km at 40 km/h, 180 km at 60 km/h and 100 km at 50 km/h. Find the net average speed.
A. 48 km/h
B. 50 km/h
C. 54 km/h
D. 52 km/h

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Total distance = 120 + 180 + 100 = 400 km. Total time = (120/40) + (180/60) + (100/50) = 3 + 3 + 2 = 8 hours. Average speed = 400 / 8 = 50 km/h.

Question #3
The speed of two cyclists are in the ratio 4 : 7. If they cover the same total distance, what is the ratio of the time taken by them?
A. 7 : 4
B. 16 : 49
C. 4 : 7
D. 49 : 16

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Since time is inversely proportional to speed when distance is constant, the ratio of time taken is the reciprocal of the speed ratio: 1/4 : 1/7 = 7 : 4.
