  1. A train covers a distance between station A and station B in 45 minutes. If the speed of the train is reduced by 5 km/hr, then the same distance is covered in 48 minutes. The distance between station A and B is
    1. 60 km
    2. 64 km
    3. 80 km
    4. 55 km
Correct Option: A

Let the distance between stations be x km, then speed of train

=
2x
= (4x/3) kmph
45
60

∴  
x
= (48/60)
4x
− 5
3

⇒ 
3x
=
4
4x − 155

⇒  16x – 60 = 15x
⇒  x = 60 km
