Answer : 1. "41.25 days"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 41.25 days Explanation: Given Karthik can cover the distance of 200 kms resting 2 hrs per day in 22 days.   Let the initial speed be '1'   Hence, Time = 22(24hrs - 2)   Noe new speed = 2/3   Let the number of days he take be 'D'   Therefore, 2224-2x3200=D24-2x2250   D = 11 x 3 x 5/4 = 41.25 days. = 41 1/4 days.

Explanation :

Answer: C) 192 Explanation: We are having with digits 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 and numbers greater than 4000 are to be formed, no digit is repeated.   The number can be 4 digited but greater than 4000 or 5 digited.   Number of 4 digited numbers greater than 4000 are4 or 5 or 6 can occupy thousand place => 3 x P34 = 3 x 24 = 72.    5 digited numbers = P55 = 5! = 120  So the total numbers greater than 4000 = 72 + 120 = 192
