Question

    A train passes an electrical pole in 15 seconds and passes a platform 480 m long in 60 seconds. Find the length of the train.

    A 160 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 140 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 180 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 150 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the length of the train be ‘x’ meter. ∴ x/15 = (x + 480)/60 ⇒ 60x = 15x + 7200 ⇒ 45x = 7200 ⇒ x = 160 m
