Answer:
Let the speed of train be x
Let the speed of car be y
distance = speed*time
320/x + 600-320/y = 8 + 40/60
320/x + 280/y = 8 + 2/3
320/x + 280/y = 26/3 (By LCM method)--------- eq 1
200/x + 600-200 /y= 8+2/3+1/2
200/x + 400/y = 55/6 (BY LCM method) ----------eq 2
Let 1/x = a & 1/y = b
320a + 280b = 26/3
200a + 400b = 55/6
3(320a + 280b) = 26
960a + 840b = 26
6(200a + 400b )= 55
1200a+ 2400b= 55
By Cross multipication method
a/-16200 = 1/1296000
a= 1/80
b/2100 = 1/1296000
b= 1/60
1/x=1/80
x= 80km/hr
1/y= 1/60
y= 60 km/hr
