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 35 km/hr, while that of B is 40 km/hr. Find distance between X and Y.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
