    Question

    Parshotam and Anjika started moving in opposite directions from the same place at speeds of 30 km/h and 3.5 km/h respectively. How far apart will they be after 2.5 hours?

    A.

    66.25 km

    B.

    8.75 km

    C.

    75 km

    D.

    83.75 km

    Correct option is D

    Given:
    Speed of Parshotam = 30 km/h
    Speed of Anjika = 3.5 km/h
    Time = 2.5 hours
    Formula Used:
    Distance = Speed × Time
    Solution:
    Distance covered by Parshotam in 2.5 hours = 30 × 2.5 = 75 km
    Distance covered by Anjika in 2.5 hours = 3.5 × 2.5 = 8.75 km
    Since they are moving in opposite directions,
    Total distance between them after 2.5 hours = 75 + 8.75 = 83.75 km

    Alternate Solution:
    Relative Speed = 30 + 3.5 = 33.5 km/h
    Distance after 2.5 hours = 33.5 × 2.5 = 83.75 km
