Q(11 – 15) Each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read all the three statements and give answer: –

What is the speed of the train whose length is 210m?
I. The train crosses another train of 300m length running in opposite direction in 10s
II. The train crosses another train running in the same direction at the speed of 60kmph in 30s.

 
Detailed Solution for Data Sufficiency MCQ - 2 - Question 11

L1 = 210m(Given)
From Statement I, L2 = 300m
L1 + L2 = 210m +300m =510m
S1 + S2 = [D/T] = 510/10 = 51m/s
From Statement II,
S2 = 60kmph = 60*(5/18) = 50/3 m/s
S1 – S2 = 510/30 = 51/3 => S1-50/3 = 51/3
S1 = 101/3 m/s
Thus both the statements are required to answer the question.

Ratio can’t be calculated from Statement I.
From Statement II,
Number of male officers = x
Number of female officers = x* 1/7
Ratio = x/(x/7) = 7:1
