  1. Two buses travel to a place at 45 km./hr. and 60 km./hr. respectively.
    If the second bus takes 5
    1
    hours
    2
    less than the first for the journey, the length of the journey is :
    1. 900 km.
    2. 945 km.
    3. 990 km.
    4. 1350 km.
Correct Option: C

Time taken by bus moving at 60 kmph = t hours
Distance = Speed × Time

∴  60 × t = 45 × t +
11
2

⇒  60t – 45t =
45 × 11
2

⇒  15t =
45 × 11
2

⇒  t =
45 × 11
=
33
15 × 2 2

=
60 × 33
= 990 km.
