Two trains Start at the same time from Stations A and B respectively and travel towards each other at a speed of 60 km/h and 40 km/h respectively. At the time they meet, the faster train has travelled 60 km more than the slower train. What is the distance between the two stations?

Correct option is A

Given:

Two trains start from Stations A and Stations B.

They travel towards each other at 60 km/h and 40 km/h.

By the time they meet, the faster train has travelled 60 km more than the slower train.

Concept used: 

For opposite direction,

Relative speed, S_r= S₁+ S₂  

Distance = Speed $$\times$$ time​

Solution:

let time taken by train to meet be t.

Distance covered by the Train A = 60t

Distance covered by the Train B = 40t

Difference in distance = 60t - 40t = 20t

Now, 20t = 60

t = 3

So, Total distance between the two stations

60t + 40t = 100t

= 100 × 3

= 300 km

Distance between the two stations 300km.
