Question 60

A car travels 105 km in 3 hours and a train travels 252 km in 4 hours. The ratio of speed of the car to that of the train is:

Solution

Given,

Distance that can be travelled by the car in 3 hours = 105 km

$$=$$> Speed of the car = $$\frac{105}{3}$$ = 35 km/h

Distance that can be travelled by the train in 4 hours = 252 km

$$=$$> Speed of the train = $$\frac{252}{4}$$ = 63 km/h

$$\therefore\ $$The ratio of speed of the car to that of the train = 35 : 63 = 5 : 9

Hence, the correct answer is Option C
