Distance covered by A in 1 hr = 5Km
 Thus
at 6 PM
     A will be 5Km away from x

Distance Covered by B Starting at 5:15 Pm in 1 hour = 10 Km
So
in 1 hr ie at 6:15 Pm B will be 10  Km away from X
So he will be 5 Km away from X when the time is 5:45
Thus B will meet A at 5:45 PM

Answer:

Explanation:

A starts at 5pm from x.

A having speed 5kmph, will cover 2.5kms in 30mins.

B having speed 10kmph, will cover 2.5kms in 15 mins.

Therefore if A starts at 5 and B starts at 5.15 they will meet at 5.30.
