Question

If a train runs at a speed of 40 kmph , it reaches it destination 11 minutes late . If the train runs at a speed of 50 kmph , it reaches it destination 5 minutes late . Find the distance to be covered by the train.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider the time of journey be T hrs

then,as distance is same, then

A/Q,

⇒40( T +11/60) =50 (T- 5/60)

⇒T= 23/30 hr

distance= speed ×time

              = 40×23/30

              =92/3 km

              =30.66 km
