    Question

    Two trains started from stations ‘A’ and ‘B’ at

    same time and started travelling towards each other at speeds of 60 km/hr and 50 km/hr, respectively. At the time of their meeting, the faster train has travelled 122 km more than the slower train. Find the distance between the stations ‘A and ‘B’.
    A 1342 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 1242 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 1322 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 1142 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the distance travelled by slower train be ‘x’ km So, distance travelled by faster train = ‘x + 122’ km ATQ, (x/50) = {(x + 122)/60} Or, 60x = 50x + 6100 Or, 10x = 6100 So, x = 610 Total distance between station ‘A’ and station ‘B’ = (610 + 610 + 122) = 1342 km
