    A 34 sec Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 39 sec Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 26 sec Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 42 sec Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the length of train be x m. According to the question, => 72 x (5/18) = x/12 => x = 240 m Length of the platform = 240 x (11/6) = 440 m Required time = (240 + 440)/20 = 34 seconds
