A train starts from A at 7 a.m. towards B with speed 50 km/h. Another train starts from B at 8 a.m. with speed 60 km/h towards A. Both of them meet at 10 a.m. at C. The ratio of the distance AC to BC is
-
- 5 : 6
- 5 : 4
- 6 : 5
- 4 : 5
Correct Option: B
AC = Distance covered by train starting from A in 3 hours
= 50 × 3 = 150 km
BC = Distance covered by train starting from B in 2 hours
= 60 ×2 = 120 km
∴ AC : BC = 150 : 120 = 5 : 4
