Two Trains Start From A And B Respectively And Travel Towards Each Other At A Speed Of 60 Km/hr. And 75 Km/hr. Respectively. By The Time They Meet, The Second Train Has Traveled 70 Km More Than The First. The Distance Between A And B Is? |

Answer» At the TIME of meeting, let the distance traveled by the first train be x KM. Then, distance covered by the second train is (x + 70) km. => x/60 = (x + 70)/75. => 75x = 60x + 60*70. => 15x = 4200 = x = 280 km. So, distance between A and B = (x + x + 70) = 280 + 280 + 70 = 630 km. At the time of meeting, let the distance traveled by the first train be x km. Then, distance covered by the second train is (x + 70) km. => x/60 = (x + 70)/75. => 75x = 60x + 60*70. => 15x = 4200 = x = 280 km. So, distance between A and B = (x + x + 70) = 280 + 280 + 70 = 630 km. |
