Answer : 2. "30 years"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 30 years Explanation: Let Karan’s present age be x years and Shiva’s present age be y years.Then, according to the first condition,x - 10 = 3(y - 10) or x - 3y = - 20 ..(1) Now, Karan’s age after 10 years = (x + 10) yearsShiva’s age after 10 years = (y + 10)(x + 10) = 2 (y + 10) or x - 2y = 10 ..(2) Solving (1) and (2), we get x = 70 and y = 30Karan’s age = 70 years and Shiva’s age = 30 years.

Answer : 2. "30 min"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 30 min Explanation: Distance travelled by Ramu = 45 x 4 = 180 km Somu travelled the same distance in 6 hours. His speed = 180/6 = 30 km/hr Hence in the conditional case, Ramu's speed = 45 - 9 = 36 km/hr and Somu's speed = 30 + 10 = 40km/hr. Therefore travel time of Ramu and Somu would be 5 hours and 4.5 hours respectively. Hence difference in the time taken = 0.5 hours = 30 minutes.
