The ratio between the length and the breadth of a rectangular park is 3 : 2. If a man cycling alongthe oundary of the park at the speed of 12 km/hr completes one round in 8 min, then the area of the park (in sq. m) is?
[ "167360 m", "1345460 m", "153600 m", "173600 m" ]
C
Perimeter = Distance covered in 8 min. = 12000 x 8 m = 1600 m. 60 Let length = 3x metres and breadth = 2x metres. Then, 2(3x + 2x) = 1600 or x = 160. Length = 480 m and Breadth = 320 m. Area = (480 x 320) m2 = 153600 m C

[ "99", "12", "50", "64" ]
D
The distance to be covered = Sum of their lengths = 280 + 360 = 640 m. Relative speed = 72 -36 = 36 kmph = 36 * 5/18 = 10 mps. Time required = d/s = 640/10 = 64 sec. Answer:C

D
Sinu’s one day’s work = 1/50 - 1/100 = (2-1)/100 = 1/100 Sinu’s 6 day’s work = 6/100* 1 = 3/50 Sinu completed 3/50 th of total work. So, Sinu’s share= 3*250/50 = Rs. 15 ANSWER:A
