0. Two trains A and B start from stations X and Y towards each other. B leaves station Y half an hour after train A leaves station X. Two hours after train A has started, the distance between trains A and B is 19/30 th of the distance between stations X and Y. How much time would it take each train (A and B) to cover the distance X to Y, if train A reaches half an hour later to its destination as compared to B?

  • Option : C
  • Explanation :
    Two equations are

    where T1 and T2 are time taken by trains A and B to cover the whole distance
    and
    Solving equations (i) and (ii), we get
    T1 = 10 hrs. and T2 = 9 hrs.
