Answers:
Directions (1-5):
1) Answer: c)
Let us take boat, Sanjana and Ranjana’s speed be x km/hr,
1200/[(x-12)*5/18] – 1200/[(x+12)*5/18] = 48
1200 * 18/5 [1/(x-12) – 1/(x+12)] = 48
90 [(x+12 –x +12)/(x2 – 122)] = 1
90*24 = x2 – 122
2160 = x2 – 144
= > x2 = 2160 + 144 = 2304
= > x = 48 km/hr
Time taken to cover downstream distance by boat A = 240/(48+12)
= 240/60
= 4 hours
Upstream distance covered by boat A = 4 * (48-12)
= 4 * 36
= 144 km
2) Answer: d)
Let us take the speed of boat C be x km/hr
According to the question,
180/(x+15) = 90/(x-15)
2/(x+15) =1/(x-15)
2*(x-15) = (x+15)
2x – 30 = x + 15
= > x = 45 km/hr
Speed of boat D in still water = 45 * [100/(100+12.5)]
= 45 * (100/112.5)
= 40 km/hr
Time taken to cover downstream distance by boat D in still water is
= > 360/(40+20)
= > 6 hours
Upstream distance covered by boat D in still water is
= > 6 *(40-20)
= 6 * 20 = 120 km
Downstream distance covered by boat E = 40 + (2*120)
= 280 km
Let us take the speed of boat E be y km/hr
According to the question,
280/(y+16) = 56/(y-16)
5/(y+16) =1/(y-16)
5y – 80 = y + 16
4y = 96
= > y = 24 km/hr
3) Answer: b)
 From statement I: If the upstream speed of boat D half of the downstream speed of boat E which is 40 km/hr
Downstream speed of boat E = 40 km/hr
Upstream speed of boat D = 40/2 = 20 km/hr
On Friday,
Speed of stream on Friday = (Downstream speed – Upstream speed)/2
16 km/hr = (40 – Upstream speed)/2
Upstream speed of boat E = 40 – 32 = 8 km/hr
Time taken by boat E to cover 56 km upstream,
= > 56/8 = 7 hours
Downstream distance covered by boat E on Friday = 7 * 40 = 280 km
On Thursday,
Speed of stream on Thursday = (Downstream speed – Upstream speed)/2
20 = (Downstream speed – 20)/2
Downstream speed of boat D = 40 + 20 = 60 km/hr
Time taken by boat D to cover 360 km downstream,
= > 360/60 = 6 hours
Upstream distance covered by boat D on Thursday = 6 * 20 = 120 km
Required ratio = 280: 120 = 7: 3
Statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
From statement II: The upstream distance covered by boat D is 20 km less than the half of the downstream distance covered by boat E
Let us take downstream distance covered by boat E be x km
Upstream distance covered by boat D = (x/2 – 20)
On Thursday,
[360/(Speed of boat D + 20)] = [Upstream distance/(Speed of boat D – 20)]
[360/(Speed of boat D + 20)] = (x/2 – 20)/ (Speed of boat D – 20)]
On Friday,
[Downstream distance/(Speed of boat E+16)] = [56/(Speed of boat E – 16)]
X / (Speed of boat E+16) = [56/(Speed of boat E – 16)]
There is no information about speed of boat D and E. So we could not able to find the relation between downstream distance covered by boat E and the upstream distance covered by boat D
Statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
Statement III: The time taken to cover upstream distance by boat E is 1 hour more than the downstream distance covered by boat D which is 6 hours.
On Thursday,
Time taken to cover downstream distance by boat D = 6 hours = Time taken to cover upstream distance by boat D
Downstream speed of boat D = 360/6 = 60 km/hr
Speed of stream on Thursday = (Downstream speed – Upstream speed)/2
20 = (60 – Upstream speed)/2
Upstream speed of boat D = 60 – 40 = 20 km/hr
Upstream distance of boat D = 20*6 = 120 km
On Friday,
Time taken to cover upstream distance by boat E = 7 hours = Time taken to cover downstream distance by boat E
Upstream speed of boat E = 56/7 = 8 km/hr
Speed of stream on Friday = (Downstream speed – Upstream speed)/2
16 = (Downstream speed – 8)/2
Downstream speed of boat E = 32 + 8 = 40 km/hr
Downstream distance of boat E = 40 * 7 = 280 km
Required ratio = 280: 120 = 7: 3
Statement III alone is sufficient to answer the question.
4) Answer: d)
From quantity I: Find the speed of the boat B, if the downstream distance covered by boat B is twice the upstream distance covered by boat B
Downstream distance covered by boat B = 100 * 2 = 200 km
200/(Speed of boat B+10) = 100/(Speed of boat B -10)
2 *(Speed of boat B -10) = (Speed of boat B+10)
Speed of boat B = 10+20 = 30 km/hr
From quantity II: Find the average speed of downstream and Upstream of boat F to cover the given distance, if the downstream distance covered by boat F is twice the upstream distance covered by boat F
Downstream distance covered by boat F = 2 * 240 = 480 km
480/(Speed of boat F + 12) = 240/(Speed of boat F – 12)
2* (Speed of boat F – 12) = (Speed of boat F + 12)
Speed of boat F = 12 + 24 = 36 km/hr
Downstream speed of boat F = 36 + 12 = 48 km/hr
Time taken by boat F to cover 480 km downstream = 480/48 = 10 hours
Upstream speed of boat F = 36 – 12 = 24 km/hr
Time taken by boat F to cover 240 km upstream = 240/24 = 10 hours
Average speed = Total distance/Total time
= (480+240)/(10+10)
= 720/20
= 36 km/hr
Hence, Quantity I < Quantity II
5) Answer: e)
Let us take the speed of boat C be x km/hr
180/(x+15) = 90/(x-15)
2*(x-15) = (x+15)
2x – 30 = x + 15
= > x = 45 km/hr
Downstream speed of boat C = Downstream speed of boat A = Downstream speed of boat D = (45+15) = 60 km/hr
Boat A,
Speed of stream = (Downstream speed – Upstream speed)/2
24 = (60 – Upstream speed)
Upstream speed of boat A = 60 – 24 = 36 km/hr
Boat D,
Speed of stream = (Downstream speed – Upstream speed)/2
40 = (60 – Upstream speed)
Upstream speed of boat D = 60 – 40 = 20 km/hr
Required ratio = 36: 20 = 9: 5

64 – (52 – 5) = 44
44 – (42 – 4) = 32
32 – (32 – 3) = 26
26 – (22 – 2) = 24

6615/9 = 735
735/7 = 105
105/5 = 21
21/3 = 7
The answer is, 21
