Question 74

The ratio between the speeds of two trains is 2 : 5. If the first train runs 350 km in 5 h, then the difference between the speeds (in km/h) of both the trains is:

Solution

Let the speed of two trains be 2p and 5p respectively

Speed of first train = $$\frac{\ 350}{5}$$ = 70 km/hr

$$=$$> 2p = 70

$$=$$> p = 35

$$\therefore\ $$Difference between speed of both trains = 5p-2p = 3p = 3(35) = 105 km/hr

Hence, the correct answer is Option B
