Answer : 3. "1400"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 1400 Explanation: Given the ratio of the circumference of front wheel is 40 inches and back wheel is 70 inches Distance covered = Circumference of the wheel × No. of Revolutions made by the wheel If n is the number of revolutions made by back wheel, the number of revolutions made by front wheel is n+15 Distance covered by both the wheels is the same 40*(n+3)=70n n=20 Front wheel : Back Wheel Circumference 40 : 70 Revolutions 35 : 20 Distance covered : 40×35 = 70×20 = 1400 inches.
