Which means the train will travel 180 m in 6 seconds so
We need to convert this into minutes
6×10 = 60s= 1 minute.
180×10 = 1800 m train will travel 1.8 km in 1 minute.
1.8×60 = 108 kmph

Ques:- 1) In a club there are certain no. of males and females. If 15 females are absent then no. of males will be twice that of females. If 45 males are absent then female strength will be 5 times that of males. Find no. of males actually present.
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:01:55:

Let the number of males be given the name M.
Let the number of females be given the name F.
If 15 females are absent, then M will be twice that of
present females.
This means that M = 2 * (F – 15)
M = 2 * F – 30.
or 2 * F – M = 30.
Now if in addition to the 15 females being absent, we also
have 45 males being absent,
then this gives the equation,
(F – 15) = 5 * (M – 45)
which simplifies to
F – 15 = 5 * M – 225
5 * M – F = 210
Pulling the equations together, we get
5 * M – F = 210
-M + 2 * F = 30
Multiply the first equation by 2, and keep the second
equation as is.
10 * M – 2 * F = 420
– M + 2 * F = 30
Add the equations.
9 * M = 450
M = 50
Verify answer.
Calculate F
from – M + 2 * F = 30
-50 + 2 * F = 30
2 * F = 30 + 50
F = 40.
If 15 females are absent, then number of males will be twice
that of females.
40 – 15 = 25.
50 = 2 * 25. Confirmed.
If also 45 males were absent, then female strength would be
5 times that of males.
Female strength is 25 due to the 15 females being absent.
50 – 45 = 5.
25 = 5 * 5. Confirmed.

Ques:- A started at 9.00 am with 6 mph and B started at 9.30 am with 8mph in the same direction. At what time they will meet?
Recent Answer : Added by DK BOSS On 2021-07-16 09:52:53:

A’s speed=6 mph ,B’s speed=8 mph
Let, after x hrs, they will meet.
so, the distance traveled by A in x hrs should be the same as the distance traveled by B in (x-1/2)hrs [as B started the journey after 30 min of A]
Thus, 6x=8(x-1/2)[as distance=speed*time]
=>8x-6x=4
=>2x=4
=>x=2
after 2 hrs they will meet so time=(9+2)=11.00 a.m
