      Question

      Two trains β€˜A’ and β€˜B’ started from station

      β€˜P’ and β€˜Q’ towards station β€˜Q’ and β€˜P’ respectively at the same time. When they met after 11 hours, train β€˜B’ has travelled 144 km more than train β€˜A’. Find the distance travelled by train β€˜A’ in 8 hours if distance between both stations is 408 km.
      A 150 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 96 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 245 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 105 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let distance travelled by train β€˜A’ at the time of meet = β€˜x’ km So, distance travelled by train β€˜B’ at the time of meet = β€˜x + 144’ km According to question; x + x + 144 = 408 => 2x = 264 => x = 132 Distance travelled by train β€˜A’ in 11 hours = 132 km Speed of train β€˜A’ = 132/11 = 12 km/h Distance travelled by train β€˜A’ in 8 hours = 12 Γ— 8 = 96 km
