1. 380 km
2. 385 km
3. 375 km
4. 285 km

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : 385 km

Given:

Distance = 950 km

Time = 19 hours

Formula used:

Speed = Distance/Time

Calculation:

Speed of car = 950/19 = 50 km/hr

Speed of train = (220/100) × 50 = 110 km/hr

Now, distance covered by train in 3.5 hrs

Distance = 110 × 3.5 = 385 km

∴ Distance of 385 km will be covered by the train in \(% MathType!MTEF!2!1!+- % feaahqart1ev3aqatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbuLwBLn % hiov2DGi1BTfMBaeXatLxBI9gBaerbd9wDYLwzYbItLDharqqtubsr % 4rNCHbGeaGqiVu0Je9sqqrpepC0xbbL8F4rqqrFfpeea0xe9Lq-Jc9 % vqaqpepm0xbba9pwe9Q8fs0-yqaqpepae9pg0FirpepeKkFr0xfr-x % fr-xb9adbaqaaeGaciGaaiaabeqaamaabaabaaGcbaaeaaaaaaaaa8 % qacaaIZaWaaSaaa8aabaWdbiaaigdaa8aabaWdbiaaikdaaaaaaa!3896! 3\frac{1}{2}\)3.5 hours.
