- A train can travel 50% faster than a car.
Question 1:
A train can travel 50% faster than a car. Both start from point A at the same time and reach point B 75 kms away from A at the same time. On the way, however, the train lost about 12.5 minutes while stopping at the stations. The speed of the car is: A. 100 kmph
B. 110 kmph
C. 120 kmph
Feedback Let speed of the car be x kmph.
Then, speed of the train = 150/100x = (3/2x)kmph.
75/x-75/(3/2)x=125/10x60
75/x-50/x=5/24
x=(25x24/5)=120kmph
Then, speed of the train = 150/100x = (3/2x)kmph.
75/x-75/(3/2)x=125/10x60
75/x-50/x=5/24
x=(25x24/5)=120kmph
D. 130 kmph
