      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 35 km/hr, while that of B is 40 km/hr. Find distance between X and Y.
      A 200 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 148 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 220 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 100 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 240 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Speed of train A = 35 kmph
      Speed of train B = 40 kmph
      Time taken by train A to meet train B at 8 AM = 4 hrs
      Time taken by train B to meet train A at 8 AM = 2 hrs
      Distance travelled by train A = 4 × 35 = 140 km
      Distance travelled by train B = 2 × 40 = 80 km
      Therefore, total distance between X and Y = 140 + 80 = 220 km
