Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given A bus whose speed is 60 kmph starts from point Salem to Bangalore and a mini van whose speed is 40 kmph starts from point Bangalore to Salem simultaneously travelling in the same road. If they both met after 2 hours and 15 minutes, what is the distance between Bangalore and Salem?

• So speed of the bus is 60 kms/hr
• Speed of the mini van is 40 kms/hr
• Now bus travels from Salem to Bangalore and mini van travels from Bangalore to Salem simultaneously travelling in the same road.
• Both meet after 2 hrs 15 min
• We need to find the distance between Bangalore and Salem.
• So for 1 hr the bus travels a distance of 60 kms
• Therefore for 2 hrs it will be 60 x 2 = 120 kms
• So for 1 hr the mini van travels a distance of 40 kms
• Therefore for 2 hrs it will be 40 x 2 = 80 kms.
• Also for 15 min we get
• In 60 min the bus travels a distance of 60 kms
• Therefore in 15 min it will be 15 x 60 / 60
•                                              = 15 kms
• In 60 min the bus travels a distance of 40 kms
• Therefore in 15 min it will be 15 x 40 / 60
•                                              = 10 kms
• Now the total distance will be 120 + 80 + 15 + 10 = 225 kms
