Question:

The train crosses two platforms of lengths 1000 m and 600 m in 80 seconds and 60 seconds respectively. What is the length of the train?

Options:

720 m

600 m

540 m

400 m

Correct Answer:

600 m

Explanation:

Let length of train = L meter

According to question ,

\(\frac{1000 + L }{80}\) = \(\frac{600 + L }{60}\)

\(\frac{1000 + L }{4}\) = \(\frac{600 + L }{3}\)

2400 + 4L = 3000 + 3L

L = 600 m

So , Length of train is 600 m
