The ratio between the speeds of two train is 8 : 9 Second train covers 360 km in 4 h. Distance covered by first train in 3 h (in km ) is?

Let speed of 1st train be 8S and speed of 2nd train be 9S According to the question. Speed of second train = 360/4 = 90 km/h 9S = 90 ⇒ S = 10 So, speed of 1st train = 8 x 10 = 80 km/h ∴ Required distance = 80 x 3 = 240 km
