Answer:

(c)70 Km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of the first train be x.

The distance traveled by the second train=400 kms.

Time taken = 5 hrs.

Speed of the second train= distance/time

= 400/5= 80 km/hr.

The ratio of the speed of the two trains=

x/80= 7/8

x= 7/8 × 80 = 7×10= 70.

Hence, the speed of the second train is 70 km/hr.
