1.  For every 4 leaps taken by a dog, a cat takes 5 leaps in the same time. But distance covered in 3 leaps of dog is same as that of 4 leaps of cat. Then what is the ratio of speed of dog and cat ?

A. 15 : 14
B. 16 :15
C. 12 :11
D. 10 : 9
E. None of these

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let distance covered by dog in 1 leap is x and
Distance covered by cat in 1 leap is y

Then, 3x = 4y
∴ x= 4/3y

Now, Ratio of speed of dog and cat = Ratio of distance covered by them in the same time = 4x : 5y
= 16/3y : 5y
= 16 : 15
