    Question

    There are two trains A and B. A start from point

    X at 4 AM towards point Y. Another train B starts at 6 AM from point X. If they meet at 8 AM and speed of A is 50 km/hr, while that of B is 60 km/hr. Find distance between X and Y.
    A 120 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 160 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 145 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 188 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 144 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Speed of train A = 25 kmph
    Speed of train B = 44 kmph
    Time taken by train A to meet train B at 11 AM = 4 hrs
    Time taken by train B to meet train A at 11 AM = 2 hrs
    Distance travelled by train A = 4 × 25 = 100 km
    Distance travelled by train B = 2 × 44 = 88 km
    Therefore, total distance between X and Y = 100 + 88 = 188 km
