A. 1 : 4 Let the speed of cyclist be x kmph ...(i) = (x) X (y) km Distance covered by cyclist is xy km Distance
covered by jogger = (xy /2) km From (i) and (ii) Ratio of their speeds = 357 Views 46. Two trains are running 40 km/hr and 20 km/hr respectively in the same direction. The fast train completely passes a man sitting in the slow train in 5 seconds. The length of the fast train is C. As trains are moving in the same direction: Time = 5 seconds ∴ Length of the faster train 226 Views 48. What sum will give ₹ 244 as the difference between simple interest and compound interest at 10% in compounded half yearly?
C. ₹ 32,000 Shortcut Method: Rate = Difference 541 Views 42. Three sets of 40, 50 and 60 studens appeared for an examination and the pass percentage was 100, 90 and 80 respectively. The pass percentage of the whole set is A. Required

B. 450
Marks obtained by D = 320 marks B got 10% less than C ∴ Marks obtained by B = (400 - 10% of 400) = (400 - 40) = ₹ 360 A got 25% more than B: 884 Views At what rate percent compound interest does a sum of money becomes 1.44 times of itself?A=P(1+r100)n1.44p=p(r100)2√1.44=(r100)1.2=1+r1001.2−1=r1000.2×100=rr=20%
At what rate per cent will a sum of 4000 yield 1 324 as compound interest in3 years?Thus, the rate of interest is 10%.
At what rate per cent of simple interest does a sum of money double itself in 12?Let the principal be x. Then, the amount after 12 years be 2x. Let the rate of interest be R. ∴ The rate of interest is 25/3%.
At what rate percent compound interest does a sum of money becomes 9 times in 2 years?Detailed Solution
