Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Dog : Hare = (3*3) leaps of hare : 5 leaps of hare
= 9 : 5

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

In this type of question, we will first try to calculate the ratio of two persons. Once we get ratio then we can easily get our answer. So lets solve this.

\begin{aligned}
\frac{4}{15}A = \frac{2}{5}B \\
A = \left(\frac{2}{5}*\frac{14}{4}\right)B \\
A = \frac{3}{2}B \\
\frac{A}{B} = \frac{3}{2} \\
A:B = 3:2 \\
\text{B's Share = }\frac{2}{5}*1210 = 484
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
a:b = 2:3 \\
b:c = 4:3 = (4*\frac{3}{4} : 3*\frac{3}{4}) \\
= 3:\frac{9}{4} \\
a:b:c = 2:3:\frac{9}{4} \\
= 8:12:9
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the original Salaries of Ravi and Sumit is 2x and 3x.

So as per question

\begin{aligned}
\frac{2x+4000}{3x+4000} = \frac{40}{57} \\
=> 57(2x+4000) = 40(3x+4000) \\
=> 6x = 68000 \\
=> 3x = 34000 \\

\text{ Sumit Salary =} 3x+4000 \\
34000 + 4000 = 38000

\end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Quantity of Milk = 60*(2/3) = 40 liters
Quantity of water = 60-40 = 20 liters

As per question we need to add water to get quantity 2:1

=> 40/(20+x) = 1/2
=> 20 + x = 80
=> x = 60 liters
