1.	Ramesh Travels 760 Km To His Home, Partly By Train And Partly By Car He Takes 8 Hours, If He Travels 160 Km By Train And The Rest By Car. He Takes 12 Minutes More, If He Travels 240 Km By Train And The Rest By Car. What Are The Speeds Of The Train And Of The Car ?
Answer» LET speeds be x and y for train and car RESPECTIVELY. Then 8 = (160/8) + (600/y) .....(1) And 8(1/5) = (240/x) + ((760-240)/y) .....(2) Solving for x and y, we get 100 and 80 km/hr. Let speeds be x and y for train and car respectively. Then 8 = (160/8) + (600/y) .....(1) And 8(1/5) = (240/x) + ((760-240)/y) .....(2) Solving for x and y, we get 100 and 80 km/hr.

Answer»

LET speeds be x and y for train and car RESPECTIVELY.

Then 8 = (160/8) + (600/y) .....(1)

And 8(1/5) = (240/x) + ((760-240)/y) .....(2)

Solving for x and y, we get 100 and 80 km/hr.

Let speeds be x and y for train and car respectively.

And 8(1/5) = (240/x) + ((760-240)/y) .....(2)

Solving for x and y, we get 100 and 80 km/hr.
