A Running Train Passes A Pole In 15 Seconds And A Platform Of 100 M Long In 25 Seconds. Find The Length Of The Train?

Answer»

Let's suppose TRAIN is RUNNING with a speed of X m/sec having a length of x METERS, so

Speed = length/time

s= x/15 (while passing a POLE) ........... (i)

s= (x+100)/25(while passing the platform)...........( ii)

Equating both equations, we get

x/15= (x+100)/25

5x=300+3x

2x=300

x=150 meters.
