    B 28 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 29 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 30 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the length of the train = x meter So according to question: x/13 = (x + 750)/28 28x = 13x + 9750 15x = 9750 x = 650 So the length of the train = 650 m Speed of the train = 650/13 = 50 m/s Time taken by the train to cross a bridge 800 meter long = (650 + 800)/50 = 1450/50 = 29 seconds
