A train passes a station platform in 36 seconds and a man standing on the platform in 20 seconds. If the speed of the train is 54 km/hr, what is the length of the platform?
Really. If I tell you that it takes 20 seconds for a train to pass by someone standing on the side of a road you have no idea what that means?
Then its ok.
but why it takes more time i.e. 36 seconds to cross platform then man.
i am not able to imagine and solve the question.

Come on! Use some of that brain power you've been working on!

If you are driving down the road doesn't it take you longer to drive past a building than to drive by a parked car? Why?

Oh, good grief! How can you not know this????????
Get the average of the following set of numbers:
5,4,12,2,1,6
Step 1:
Find the sum:
Sum = 5+4+12+2+1+6= 30

Folks, he's a lost cause. I recommend dropping this thread completely and ignoring him. He's just wasting everyone's time.
What amazes me is that this is supposed to be an aptitude test, presumably designed to identify what things he's good at; how pathetic is it to cheat on an aptitude test???

He is frustrating, but if you are prepared to hold hands and make suggestions in teeny-tiny steps, he'll eventually get it and be appreciative.

I disagree. Not once has he ever showed any signs of learning anything. He just wants answers. As OBW0549 said, how pathetic is he to cheat on an aptitude test? Pretty darn pathetic if you ask me, and I don't think it should be supported.

Because the size of car will be less than building.
Has little to do with that.

Won't it take longer of a large truck to pass a small car parked on the side of the road than it will take for it to pass a person standing on the side of the road? The truck is larger than both the car and the person.

You are both pretty close to being correct. I have seen him show signs of comprehension after a long enough time, but it does seem like the rate of learning is going down, even from the very poor levels it started out at.

Can't make up my mind on this one.
