Two trains start at the same time from two stations and proceed towards each other at speeds of 90 km/h and 70 km/h, respectively. When they meet, it is found that one train has travelled 140 km more than the other, What is the distance (in km) between the two stations? |
1100 1120 980 1200 |
1120 |
Ratio of Speed is 9 : 7 We know , Speed is directly proportional to Distance Ratio of Distance = 9 : 7 According to question , ( 9 - 7 )R = 140 km 2R = 140 km 1R = 70 km So , Total Distance = ( 9 + 7 )R = 11R = 16 × 70 = 1120 km |
