    Solution

    ATQ, we can say that Let, Distance travelled by ‘Swift’ = 'x' km Distance travelled by ‘Swift’ = ('x' + 400) km According to the question, Time for which 'Alto' car travelled = Time for which 'Swift' car travelled Or, (x/30) = {(x + 400)/40} Or, 4x = 3x + 1200 Or, x = 1200 The distance between Dehradun and Delhi =  1200 + 1200 + 400 =  2800 km
