    Question

    Two trains start at the same time from opposite ends of

    a 300 km track. Their speeds are 70 and 80 km/h. When they meet, how far is the faster train from the slower’s starting point?
    A 110 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 140 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 165 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 145 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    They meet after t = 300/(70+80)=300/150=2 hrs Faster train covers 80×2=160 km from its end ⇒ from slower’s start = 300–160 = 140 km.
