RISHI KUMAR  (14 years ago)

excess speed of A=10
SPEED of B=35
as fine of B is double to that of A, so excess speed of B=10*2=20
hence speed limit=35-20=15

let x be the speed limit
a exceeded speed limit by 10
so x+10
b exceeded speed limit twice that of a
so x+20
for 35km/hr
35=x+20
x=35-20
x=15
so speed limit is 15km/hr

ans 15km/hr.
let the speed limit be x
speed of A=x+10,Speed of B=x+20
solving x=20=35 we get x=15

The speed limit for road is 15Km/hr.
Police fined certain amount to A for overspeeding by exceeding the limit by 10 km/hr while it fined B twice the amount by which it fined A. So B exceeded the limit by 20 Km/hr. As B was driving at the speed of 35 Km/hr, so the speed limit of road was 35-20 = 15 km/hr.

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes | No

B TRAVELING WITH 35KMPH
=>A IS AT 17.5KMPH AND EXCEEDS BY 10KMPH.
SO SPEED LIMIT=17.5-10=7.5KMPH
