Correct option is C

Given:

Distance between Lucknow and Chandigarh = 754 km

Time taken by train X on Day 3 = 13 hours

Time taken by train Y on Day 3 = 20 hours

Solution:

Train X on Day 3:

Average Speed of Train X = 75413\frac{754}{13}​​ ≈ 58km/hr

Train Y on Day 3:

Average Speed of Train Y = 75420\frac{754}{20}​ = ​37.7km/hr
