Question

Two train A and B running each other in opposite direction. Train A reach point X in 2 hours and train B reach point X in 3 hours if the distance travelled by both trains is the same then what is the ratio of their speeds.?

1. 3 : 2
2. 2 : 3
3. 3 : 1
4. 1 : 3

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 1 : 3 : 2

Given:

Train "A" reach at X in 2 hours and "B" reach at X in 3 hours

Concept:

When distance is then time is indirectly proposal to speed

Calculation:

⇒ Time is taken by A to reach point X = 2 hours

⇒ TIme taken by B to reach point X = 3 hours

⇒ The ratio of their speed of train A and B = 3 : 2

∴ The required result will be 3 : 2.
