The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of determining the time taken by Saif to cover a distance of 100 km by car, we will analyze the two statements provided and see how they can help us arrive at the answer. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Question**: We need to find out how long it takes Saif to cover 100 km by car. 2. **Analyzing Statement I**: - Statement I tells us that Saif covers a distance of 100 km in 5 hours using a bike. - From this, we can calculate the speed of the bike: \[ \text{Speed of bike} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} = \frac{100 \text{ km}}{5 \text{ hours}} = 20 \text{ km/h} \] 3. **Analyzing Statement II**: - Statement II provides the ratio of the speed of the bike to the speed of the car, which is 5:7. - This means if the speed of the bike is 5 parts, then the speed of the car is 7 parts. 4. **Finding the Speed of the Car**: - From Statement I, we found the speed of the bike to be 20 km/h. - Let’s denote the speed of the bike as \( 5x \) and the speed of the car as \( 7x \). - Since the speed of the bike is 20 km/h, we can set up the equation: \[ 5x = 20 \implies x = 4 \] - Now, we can find the speed of the car: \[ \text{Speed of car} = 7x = 7 \times 4 = 28 \text{ km/h} \] 5. **Calculating the Time Taken by Car**: - Now that we have the speed of the car, we can find the time taken to cover 100 km: \[ \text{Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}} = \frac{100 \text{ km}}{28 \text{ km/h}} = \frac{100}{28} \text{ hours} \approx 3.57 \text{ hours} \] 6. **Conclusion**: - Both statements I and II are necessary to find the time taken by Saif to cover 100 km by car. Statement I gives us the speed of the bike, and Statement II provides the ratio needed to find the speed of the car. ### Final Answer: Both statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question. ---
