Question

X and y are two stations 600 km apart. A train starts from x and moves towards y at the rate of 25 km/hr another train starts from y at the rate of 35 km/hr. How far from x they will cross each other

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

                                 train from x

 X .............a......................l............................(600-a).......................................Y

                                 train from y

                                  let they cross after t hrs of journey

speed of train from x= 25 km/h

speed of train from y= 35 km/h

a=25t

600-a = 35t

600 - 25t = 35t

60t = 600

t = 10 hrs

a = 25×10 = 250 km

so they meet 250 km away from X.
