Question

a 160 M long train passes a railway platform in 18 seconds how long it will take to pass and other platforms hundred metre long​

Answer 1

Answer:

11.25 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a question on distance and time

The train takes a longer time to pass the 160 m distance

Distance and time are directly proportional meaning an increase in distance causes an increase in time and a decrease in distance causes a decrease in time

In this case the train will take a shorter time to cross the 100m distance

We can use cross multiplication method to solve this question

If 160 m – 18 seconds

100 m – ?

( 100 ÷ 160) × 18

0.625 × 18 = 11.25 seconds
