Answer : 2. "1/6"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 1/6 Explanation: Total work is given by L.C.M of 72, 48, 36 Total work = 144 units Efficieny of A = 144/72 = 2 units/day Efficieny of B = 144/48 = 3 units/day Efficieny of C = 144/36 = 4 units/day   According to the given data, 2 x p/2 + 3 x p/2 + 2 x (p+6)/3 + 3 x (p+6)/3 + 4 x (p+6)/3 = 144 x (100 - 125/3) x 1/100 3p + 4.5p + 2p + 3p + 4p = 84 x 3 - 54 p = 198/16.5 p = 12 days.   Now, efficency of D = (144 x 125/3 x 1/100)/10 = 6 unit/day (C+D) in p days = (4 + 6) x 12 = 120 unit Remained part of work = (144-120)/144 = 1/6.

Answer : 4. "12 p.m."
Explanation :

Answer: D) 12 p.m. Explanation: Assume both trains meet after 'p' hours after 7 a.m.Distance covered by train starting from A in 'p' hours = 20p kmDistance covered by train starting from B in (p-1) hours = 25(p-1)Total distance = 200=> 20x + 25(x-1) = 200=> 45x = 225=> p= 5Means, they meet after 5 hours after 7 am, ie, they meet at 12 p.m.
