Question:

If A and B start moving in opposite direction at 10.00am with the speed of x km/hr and y km/hr respectively. After meeting they took 24 min and 54 min to reach at the starting points of each other. Find at what time they meet each other.

Options:

10 : 25 am

10 : 36 am

10 : 40 am

10 : 50 am

Correct Answer:

10 : 36 am

Explanation:

Meeting Time (T) = \(\sqrt {t_1×t_2}\)

                      T= 24

                      T= 54

T = \(\sqrt {24 × 54 }\) = 36

Meeting Time = 10:00am + 36min = 10:36 am
