      Question

      Two stations P and Q are 486 km apart. A train leaves P at

      6:45 a.m. at 54 km/h. Another train leaves Q at 8:15 a.m. towards P at 81 km/h. When will they meet?
      A 10:45 a.m. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 11:00 a.m. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 11:15 a.m. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 11:30 a.m. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 11:45 a.m. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Time gap = 1.5 hours → Distance = 54 × 1.5 = 81 km
      Remaining = 486 – 81 = 405 km
      Relative speed = 135 km/h
      Time = 405 / 135 = 3 hours
      Meeting time = 8:15 a.m. + 3h = 11:15 a.m.
