    Question

    Quantity I : Distance travelled by the cycle to reach

    point c from point B if a Bike travels the same distance in 2 hours and the speed of the cycle is 140 km/hr which is 140% of the speed of the Bike.  Quantity II : Distance travelled by a boat to reach point E from point D if the speed of the boat in still water is 10 km/hr and speed of current is 2 km/hr. It goes from point D to E downstream and return back from point E to D upstream in 41.25 hours.
    A Quantity I > Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Quantity II < Quantity I Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Quantity I = Quantity II or relation cannot be established Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Quantity I ≥ Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Quantity II ≥ Quantity I Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    let the Speed of Bike = 140/1.4 = 100 km/h  Therefore Distance travelled by cycle will be = 100 × 2 = 200 km = Q1  So, Distance from point D to point E = x km  x/(10 + 2) + x/(10 – 2) = 41.25  x/12 + x/8 = 41.25  5x/24 = 41.25 x = 198 km Q2 < Q1.
