r = the average speed of train R, r>0

s = the average speed of train S, s>0


the average speed of train R is 25 km/hr more than that of the train S


r = 25 + s


since avg.speed = distance/time => time = distance/avg.speed


train R takes 5 hours less than train S for covering a distance of 750 km


750/r = 750/s - 5


plug r = 25 + s into the last equation


750/(25 + s) = 750/s - 5


by solving we find and consider the positive roots


s = 50 km/hr


r = 25 + 50


r = 75 km/hr


the average speed of train R is 75 km/hr.

the average speed of train S is 50 km/hr.
