201. A railway train 100 meters long is running at the speed of 30 km/h. How long will it take to pass an 80 meters long bridge?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 21.6 sec

Explanation To find the time taken, first, calculate the total distance the train needs to cover: Total distance = Length of train + Length of bridge = 100 m + 80 m = 180 m Convert the speed from km/h to m/s: 30 km/h = 30 × (1000 m / 3600 s) = 30 × 5/18 = 8.33 m/s Time taken = Distance / Speed = 180 m / 8.33 m/s = 21.6 seconds

202. I went 10m to the East from my house, then turned north and walked another 15m, and then I turned west and covered 12m, and then turned south and covered 15m. How far am I from my house?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 2 m

Explanation Let's break down the movements step by step: East 10 meters: You are now 10 meters east of your house from the starting point . North 15 meters: Now you're 10 meters east and 15 meters north of your house. West 12 meters: Moving west by 12 meters puts you 2 meters west of you r house (because 12 - 10 = 2). South 15 meters: Moving south 15 meters brings you back to your house's north- south position (because 15 meters north - 15 meters south = 0). So now you're 2 meters west and 0 meters north-south from your house. The distance from your house is simply 2 meters.

203. A father is 7 times as old as his son. Two years ago, he was 13 times as old. What are their current ages?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: Son = 4 Father = 28

Explanation Two years ago: 7x - 2 = 13(x - 2) → x = 4, father = 28)

204. A car travels 120 miles in 3 hours. How far would it travel in 5 hours?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 200 miles

Explanation Speed = 120 miles / 3 hours = 40 miles/hour Distance in 5 hours = 40 × 5 = 200 miles Last verified on 15-03-2026

205. A bus travels 5km horizontally and 12km vertically. The length of the diagonal path it covers is ______?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 13km

Explanation Diagonal² = 5² + 12² = 25 + 144 = 169 Diagonal = √169 = 13km Last verified on 08-02-2026

206. In a kilometer race, A beats B by 50 meters or 10 seconds. What time does A take to complete the race?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 190 sec

Explanation Step 1: Let A's time = t seconds - So, B’s time = t + 10 seconds - B runs 950 meters in t seconds (because when A finishes, B is at 950 meters) - So B’s speed = 950 / t meters per second Now use B’s speed to find time B takes to run full 1000 meters: Time = Distance / Speed = 1000 / (950 / t) = (1000t) / 950 We’re also told that B takes 10 seconds more than A: So, (1000t / 950) = t + 10 Multiply both sides by 950: 1000t = 950t + 9500 1000t - 950t = 9500 50t = 9500 t = 190 seconds

207. Two friends start running in an opposite direction 2km/h faster than the other. After one hour they are 10 km apart. What is the speed of both friends.

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 4 km/h and 6 km/h

Explanation Let the speed of the slower friend be x x x km/h, then the speed of the faster friend is x + 2 km/h. After 1 hour, their total distance apart is the sum of their speeds: x + ( x + 2 ) = 10 Simplifying: 2 x + 2 = 10 2 x = 8 ⇒ x = 4 km/h So, the slower friend's speed is 4 km/h, and the faster friend's speed is 4 + 2 = 6 4 + 2 = 6 km/h.

208. Hassan travels 60 km in 50 minutes, then travels a further 40 km in 25 minutes. His average speed is

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 80 km/h

Explanation Total distance = 60 + 40 = 100 km Total time = 50 + 25 = 75 minutes = 75/60 hours = 1.25 hours Average speed = Total distance / Total time = 100 km / 1.25 hours = 80 km/h Last verified on 09-02-2026

209. Shaista completes a piece of work in 10 days, All completes the same work in 40 days, if they work together, the days required to complete the work will be _________

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 8 days

Explanation LCM of 1/10 + 1/40 = 1/8 Number of days to complete the total work = 8 days

210. If 12 years are added to 2/7 of the age of JAVED he will be 3 years younger to the present age of his elder brother OW AIS who is now 30 years. What is the present age of JAVED?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 52.5

Explanation Given: (2/7)x + 12 = 30 - 3 (2/7)x + 12 = 27 (2/7)x = 15 Multiply both sides by 7: 2x = 105 ⇒ x = 52.5
