C’s one day work= 12-(5+4) = 3 units
Remaining work = 120-(9*12) = 12 units 100). Answer: A
Time required by C to complete the work= 12/3= 4 days Sol:
T.L /15 = (T.L +240) /45
97). Answer: C X/15 = (X+240)/45
Sol: X= (X+240) /3
Total probability = 52C1 * 51C1 = 52*51 = 2652 3X= X+240
Possible choice = 13C1 * 2 C 1 2X = 240
= 13*2 = 26 Length of the train, X= 120cm.
Possible Probability = 26 /2652 = 1/102
