• 2] 28 km/h
• 3] 30 km/h
• 4] 33 km/h

A journey of 192 km between two cities take 2 hours less by a fast train than by a slow train. If the average speed of the slow train is 16 km/hr less than that of the fast train, the average speed of the fast train is :

• 1] 32 km/hr
• 2] 36 km/hr
• 3] 48 km/hr
• 4] 64 km/hr

• 2] 6.5 km/h
• 3] 4.5 km/h
• 4] 5 km/h

If a man runs at 6 kmph from his house, he misses the train at the station by 8 min. If he runs at 10 kmph, he reaches 7 min before the departure of the train. What is the distance of the station from his house? (in Km).

From two places, 60 km apart, A and B start towards each other at the same time and meet each other after 6 hours. If A traveled with \(\frac{2}{3}\) of his speed and B traveled with double of his speed, they would have met after 5 hours. The speed of A is:

• 1] 4 km/h
• 2] 6 km/h
• 3] 10 km/h
• 4] 12 km/h
