Given:
Speed to train = 200km/h
The train sets off from Station A at 12:24.
Reaches station B at 14:12.
To find:
The distance between both stations.
Solution:
We have,
Speed to train = 200km/h
Time taken by the train to cover the distance between station A and station B is the difference between 14:12 and 12:24.
Time = 1 hr 48 min
Time = 1.8 hours [ 1 hr = 60 minutes]
Let d be the distance between both stations.
We know that,
[tex]Speed=\dfrac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]
[tex]200=\dfrac{d}{1.8}[/tex]
[tex]200\times 1.8=d[/tex]
[tex]360=d[/tex]
Therefore, the distance between the two stations is 360 km.
