  4. A train covered a certain distance at a uniform speed. If the train would have been 10km/h faster, it would have taken 2 hours less than the scheduled time. And, if the train were slower by 10km/h; it would have taken 3 hours more than the scheduled time. Find the distance covered by the train.

  7. The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 9. Also, nine times this number is twice the number obtained by reversing the order of the digit. Find the number.
  8. The area of a rectangle gets reduced by 9 square units, if its length is reduced by 5 units and breadth is increased by 3 units. If we increase the length by 3 units and the breadth by 2 units, the area increases by 67 square units. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.
  9. 2 women and 5 men can together finish an embroidery work in 4 days, while 3 women and 6 men can finish it in 3 days. Find the time taken by 1 woman alone to finish the work, and also that taken by 1 man alone.

  12. A says to B “my present age is Five times your that age when I was an old as you are now. It the sum of their present ages is 48 years, find their present ages. 
  13. A boat goes 30 km upstream and 44 km downstream in 10 hours. In 13 hours it can go 40km upstream and 55 km down stream. Determined the speed of the stream and that of the boat in still water.
