A Jeep is 30 km ahead of a car travelling in same direction.  After 3 hours, the car is 60 km ahead of bus.  If the speed of bus is 42 km/h.  Find the speed of the car?

Options:

72 km/h

42 km/h

50 km/h

62 km/h

Correct Answer:

72 km/h

Explanation:

Speed of car = S km/hr

Relative distance = 90 km

Relative speed (in same direction) = S - 42

Distance =  speed × time

90 = (S - 42) × 3 

⇒ S = 72 km/h
