A bus started from bustand at 8.00a m and after 30 min staying at destination, it returned back to the bustand. the destination is 27 miles from the bustand. the speed of the bus 50 percent fast speed. at what time it returns to the bustand

A bus cover 27miles with 18mph in=27/18 =1hr30min and it wait at stand=30min.after this speed of return increases by 50%. so 50% of 18mph=9mphtotal speed of returning=18+9=27then in return it take 27/27=1hr.then total time in journey=1+1.30+0.30=3hrso it will come at 8+3hr=11am.so ans=11am

If the product of the 3 consecutive integers is 210, then the sum of the two smaller integers?
madhurimasridhar
- Mar 5th, 2009
Product is 210... so one of the integers must be 5 or 10.They are 5 6 7 or 3 4 5 or 10 9 8 or 10 11 12
Possible ans is 5 6 7 bcoz no other option gives the product which is mentioned
in the data.Sum of two smaller integers is 5+6=11.so ans is 11chandradeepika

the three consecutive integers be x,y and z.given: xyz=210. the unit place ends with 0. so it must be a multiple of 5,10,...if it is a multiple of 10 means it must lead to a large number because 10*9*...

Circular Track
In a circular race track of length 100 m, three persons A, B and C start together. A and B start in the same direction at speeds of 10 m/s and 8 m/s respectively. While C runs in the opposite at 15 m/s. When will all the three meet for the first time on the after the start? with steps
pramoth
- Dec 25th, 2011
The three will never meet at the same place after they start because two people are running in the same direction with different speeds. so C will meet either A or B. but not both.

A traveler walks a certain distance
A traveler walks a certain distance. Had he gone half a kilometer an hour faster , he would have walked it in 4/5 of the time, and had he gone half a Kilometer an hour slower, he would have walked 2 ½ hr longer. What is the distance?
RAJUTHAI
- Mar 8th, 2012
Ans:15km
solution:
speed(s)*time(t)=distance(d)
walked 1/2km with time 4/5
(s+0.5)((4/5)t)=d --->(1)
1/2km an hour slow, walked 2and half hr long
(s-0.5)(t+2.5)=d ----->(2)
solving (1) & (2)
we get s=2
t=7.5
d=2*7.5=15kmAkshujain
- Oct 25th, 2009
D = 15 kmsx = speed in km/hry = time takend / x = y - eq1d / x + .5 = (4/5)*y - eq 2d / x - .5 = 2.5 + y - eq 3 solving these three equation we get d = 15 x = 2 y = 7.5

In this problem longititude is unwanted.only latitude is what thats going to determine.so,70-10=60' for each 1' change it takes 5 mins,so 60'*5=300 mins2+10hrs=12 a.m localtime.?12-5hrs=7 a.m

Distancetravelled by the bird=2000m
time taken=187.5 sec
=375/2 sec
speed is in the ratio of 1:2
dividing the time in the ratio of 1:2
time to=375/2(2/3)=125 sec
speed=distane/time=1000/125=8 m/sec
speed in thefro direction=16m/sec -
Prime Numbers
What is the probability of getting 2 prime nos. from 1 to 20?
Mark Haynes
- Feb 13th, 2012
I hit the send before I was finished, to continue: since the random picking of a number under 20 is still a independent event, the chance for picking a 2nd prime number is still the same... 40%
Mark Haynes
- Feb 13th, 2012
Given that there are 8 Prime Numbers under 20, and if the limit is only random numbers under 20 then there is a 40% chance of getting a prime number.

AS, There are some readers such that in each occupied reading spot there are
different numbers of readers. 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8= 36 readers so, 8 spots have
different readers. remaining are 23-8= 15. 15 spots are empty.
