Answer 1

Answer:

the two cross each other at 11:30 AM

Step-by-step explanation:

Aman started from town A at 6:00 a.m. and reached B at 3:00 p.m.

total time taken = 9 hrs

Jalaram started at 7.00 a.m. from B and reached A at 4:00 p.m.

total time taken = 9 hrs

for Aman:

midway + 1 hr = 4.5 hrs + 1 hr = 5.5 hrs (he started early by one hour)

for Jalaram

Midway = 4.5 hrs

they'll meet at

Aman : 6 AM + 5.5 hrs = 11:30 AM

Jalaram: 7 AM + 4.5 hrs = 11:30 AM
