Given below are two quantities named A and B. Based on the given information, you have to determine the relation between the two quantities. You should use the given data and your knowledge of Mathematics to choose between the possible answers.Quantity A: A man can swim 4 km/hr in still water. If the velocity of the stream is 1 km/hr, then time taken by him to swim to a place 6 km downstream and return?Quantity B: 2 hours1. Quantity A > Quantity B2. Quantity A < Quantity B3. Quantity A ≥ Quantity B4. Quantity A ≤ Quantity B5. Quantity A = Quantity B or No relation. |

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : Quantity A > Quantity B Quantity A: Speed of the swimmer along the stream, Sd = 4 + 1 = 5 km/hr Speed of the swimmer against the stream, Su = 4 - 1 = 3 km/hr Time taken by the swimmer = 6/5 + 6/3 = 1.2 + 2 = 3.2 hours Quantity B: 2 hours ∴ Quantity A > Quantity B |
