    Question

    The distance between stations X and Y is 672 km. A train

    leaves X at 9 a.m. at 64 km/h. Another train leaves Y at 10:30 a.m. towards X at 96 km/h. When will they meet?
    A 1:45 p.m. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 2:00 p.m. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 2:06 p.m. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 2:12 p.m. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Time gap = 1.5 hrs → Distance = 64 × 1.5 = 96 km
    Remaining = 672 – 96 = 576 km
    Relative speed = 160 km/h
    Time = 576 / 160 = 3.6 hrs = 3h 36m
    Meeting time = 10:30 a.m. + 3h 36m = 2:06 p.m.
