Two cars ' X ' and ' Y' starts from Delhi to Mumbai. How much time does X take to reach Mumbai ? I The speed of car X is 40% of the speed of' Y'. II ' Y' took 16 hours to reach Mumbai.

Answer»

If the QUESTION can be ANSWERED using both the statements together, but cant be answered using either statement alone.



Both the statements are required to answer the question.
suppose the distance between DELHI to Mumbai is D KM and speed of Y is V kmh-1
∴ D/V = 16
From (I),
speed of X is X = 40/100 x V = 2V/5
So time taken = D/(2V/5) = D/1 x 5/2V
∴ 5/2 D/V = 5/2 x 16 = 40 hours.
