The difference in speed between the two cars is 60 km/h - 50 km/h = 10 km/h. Relative speed between car is 10 km/h.
Distance between the car will increase due to this relative velocity. 20 km gap at a speed of 10 km/h, it will take 20 km/ 10 km/h = 2 hours.
Answer: B) 2
C
Let the original share of each friend be x. So, the total cost of the gift = 10 * x
When 2 friends don't contribute, the remaining 8 friends pay (x + 150) each.
8 * (x + 150) = 10 * x
x = 600.
Therefore, the total cost of the gift = 10 * 600 = 6000.
Answer: (C) 6000
D

Given that only one statement is true, let's analyze the possibilities:
If P's statement (“Q committed the crime”) is true:
Q committed the crime.
Then, Q's statement (“S committed the crime”) must be false.
So, S did not commit the crime.
R's statement (“I didn't do it”) is false. Means R committed the crime
Q and R both can not commit the crime hence no conclusion
If Q's statement (“S committed the crime”) is true:
S committed the crime.
R's statement (“I didn't do it”) is false. Means R committed the crime
S and R both can not commit the crime hence no conclusion
If R's statement (“I didn't do it”) is true:
R did not commit the crime.
P statement is false. Means Q did not committed the crime
Q statement is false. Means S did not committed the crime
S statement is false. Means what Q says. Hence S committed the crime which is contradictory to the above statement
Hence no conclusion
If S's statement (“What Q said about me is false”) is true:
P & Q's statements must be false. Hence Q & S did not commit the crime.
R statement is false
Hence R committed the crime
Therefore, the criminal who committed the crime, given that only one statement is true, is R. Hence, the correct answer is (B) R.
C
Total numbers of persons = 70 + 10 + 20 + 20 + 40 = 160
Numbers of administrators = 10 + 20 +20 = 50
% administrators = (50 x 100)/ 160 = 31.25
Answer: C
B

C
Let's denote:
D = Drama club
M = Maths club
Da = Dance club
Given:
Only D = 60
Only M = 30
Only Da = 80
D ∩ Da = 40
Da ∩ M = 12
D ∩ M = 7
D ∩ Da ∩ M = 2
Students Only in D & Da
= (D ∩ Da) - (D ∩ Da ∩ M) = 40-2 = 38
Students Only in Da & M
= (Da ∩ M) - (D ∩ Da ∩ M) = 12 - 2 = 10
Students Only in D & M
= (D ∩ M) - (D ∩ Da ∩ M) = 7-2 = 5
Total students in clubs
= Only D + Only M + Only Da + Only D & Da + Only Da & M + Only D & M + students in all clubs
= 60 + 30 + 80 + 38 + 10 + 5 + 2 = 225
75% of the students are not in any club, so 25% are in clubs.
Total students 225 x 4 = 900
Answer: C) 900
