To deliver an order on time, a company has to make 25 parts a day. After making 25 parts per day for 3 days, the company started to produce 5 more parts per day, and by the last day of work 100 more parts than planned were produced.How many parts the company made?

Let x be the number of days the company worked. Then 25x is the number of parts they planned to make. At the new production rate they made: 3⋅25+(x−3)⋅30=75+30(x−3) Therefore: 25x=75+30(x−3)−100 25x=75+30x−90−100 190−75=30x−25 115=5x x=23 So the company worked 23 days and they made 23⋅25+100=675 pieces. correct answer ...

Two trains 140 m and 160 m long run at the speed of 60 km/hr and 40 km/hr respectively in opposite directions on parallel tracks. The time which they take to cross each other is?
[ "10", "12", "11", "10.8" ]
D
Relative speed = 60 + 40 = 100 km/hr. = 100 * 5/18 = 250/9 m/sec. Distance covered in crossing each other = 140 + 160 = 300 m. Required time = 300 * 9/250 = 54/5 = 10.8 sec. Answer: Option D

[ "15 sec", "20 sec", "None of these", "18 sec" ]
A
Length of train = 12 × 15 = 180 m. Then, speed of train = 180⁄18 = 10 m/s Now, length of train = 10 × 15 = 150m ∴ Required time = 150⁄10 = 15 sec. Answer C
