71. A tank can be filled by pipe A in 3 hours and Pipe B in 5 hours. At 7 am, pipe A was opened. At what time will the tank be filled if pipe B was opened at 8 am?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 9 : 15 am

Explanation Pipe A and pipe B can fill the tank in 3 hours and 5 hours, then total work = LCM of (3, 5) = 15 unit Efficiency of pipe A = 15/3 = 5 unit and efficiency of pipe B = 15/5 = 3 unit From 7 to 8 AM, pipe A alone done 5 unit, work remains (15 - 5) = 10 unit, Now, pipe A and B together can do it in = 10/(5 + 3) = 10/8 hours = 10/8 × 60 = 75 min The required time is 8 AM + 75 min = 9 AM + 15 min = 9 : 15 AM ∴ The correct answer is 9 : 15 AM

72. A man make basket in 2/3 hours. How many basket he can make in 7.5 hours?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 45 /4 baskets

Explanation Step 1: Find baskets per hour Baskets per hour =1/ 2/3 1 ​ = 1 × 3 ​/2 = 3/2 ​ baskets per hour Step 2: Multiply by total time (7.5 hours) Baskets in 7.5 hours = 3/2 ​ ​ × 7.5 = 3/2 ​ ​ × 15 ​/2 = 45 /4 ​ baskets

73. Ali is 16 years old and his sister is 4 times his age. How many years back was Ali’s sister half of Ali’s age?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 112 years

Explanation Step 1: Present ages Ali = 16 years Sister = 4 × 16 = 64 years Step 2: Let x years ago Ali’s age = 16 − x Sister’s age = 64 − x Condition: Sister was half of Ali’s age 64 − x = 1/2 ​ ( 16 − x ) Step 3: Solve 128 − 2 x = 16 − x 112 = x Last updated on 09-03-2026

74. A boy goes to his school from his house at a speed of 3 km/hr and returns at a speed of 2 km/hr. If he takes 5 hours in going and coming, the distance between his house and school is.

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 6 km

Explanation We are given: Speed while going to school = 3 km/hr Speed while returning home = 2 km/hr Total time for the round trip = 5 hours Step 1: Let the Distance Be "d" km Time taken to go = d/3 ​ hours Time taken to return = d ​/2 hours Since total time is 5 hours , d/3 ​ + d/2 ​ = 5 Step 2: Solve for d Taking LCM of 3 and 2 = 6 , 2d/6​ + 3 d/6 ​ = 5 5 d/6 ​ = 5 5 d = 30 d = 6 km

75. Food is sufficient for 900 men for 30 days. If 150 men leave, for how many days will the remaining food last?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 36 days

Explanation Total food = 900 men × 30 days = 27,000 man-days Men left = 900 - 150 = 750 Food will last = 27,000 man-days / 750 men = 36 days

76. Car A is moving with a speed of 60 km/h in east direction while car B is moving with a speed of 80 km/h in north direction such that the distance between them is increasing. The distance between the car after 2 hours will be if initially, they are 40 km apart.

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 200 km

Explanation

77. If a car covers 19 km at a speed of 57 km/h, how much distance will it cover at a speed of 110 km/h (in the same time)?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 36.67 km

Explanation Time = 19 ÷ 57 = 1/3 hour Distance at 110 km/h = 110 × 1/3 = 36.67 km Last verified on 19-04-2026

78. A bridge consists of 10 sections; each section is 2.5 meter long. How far is it from the edge of the bridge to the centre?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 12.5 meters

Explanation The total length of the bridge is: 10 sections × 2.5 meters/section = 25 meters To find the distance from the edge to the center: Center = Total length / 2 = 25 meters / 2 = 12.5 meters

79. A person crosses a 500 m long street in 5 minutes. What is his speed in km/h?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 6

Explanation Distance = 500 m = 0.5 km (since 1 km = 1000 m) Time = 5 minutes = 5/60 = 1/12 hours (since 1 hour = 60 minutes) Speed = Distance / Time = 0.5 km / (1/12) hours = 0.5 km × 12/1 = 6 km/h So, the correct answer is: 6

80. A train 250 m long, running with a speed of 63 km/hr will pass a tree in ____?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 14.3

Explanation To solve this problem, we need to convert the speed from km/hr to m/s and then use the formula: Time = Distance / Speed First, let's convert the speed: 63 km/hr = 63 x (1000 m / 3600 s) = 17.5 m/s Now, let's calculate the time: Time = Distance / Speed = 250 m / 17.5 m/s = 14.3 seconds
