Mohan and Sohan are going from same place at 8 km/h and 9 km/h respectively. If Mohan and Sohan are going in the same direction, then what is the distance between Mohan and Sohan after 4.5 h ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 4.5 km

Given that 

The speed of Mohan is 8 km/h.

The speed of Sohan is 9 km/h

The relative speed of them when they move in same direction = 9 - 8 = 1 km/h

Formula used

Distance between them = Relative speed × time

Calculation

⇒ 4.5 × 1 = 4.5 km

Hence, the required distance = 4.5 km
