Question

    In the question, two Quantity I and Quantity II are given. You have to solve both the Quantities to establish the correct relation between Quantity I and Quantity II.

    Quantity I: The distance a

    truck travels from point P to point Q, given that a bike covers the same distance in 2 hours. The truck's speed is 140 km/hr, which is 140% of the bike's speed. Quantity II: The distance a boat covers from point R to point S. The boat's speed in still water is 10 km/hr, and the speed of the current is 2 km/hr. The boat travels downstream from R to S and then returns upstream from S to R, taking a total of 41.25 hours.
    A Quantity I > Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Quantity I < Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Quantity I = Quantity II or no relation can be established Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Quantity I ≥ Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Quantity I ≤ Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Speed of Bike = 140/1.4 = 100 km/h  Distance travelled by Truck = 100 × 2 = 200 km - Quantity I Distance from point R to point S = d km  d/(10 + 2) + d/(10 – 2) = 41.25  d/12 + d/8 = 41.25  5d/24 = 41.25  d = 198 km  Quantity II < Quantity I
