Mohan and Sohan started running from the points P and Q at the same time towards each other. The speeds of Mohan and Sohan are 24km/h and 18km/h respectively. If they meet after 10 min, then what is the distance between P and Q?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 7 km

Speed of Mohan and Sohan are 24km/h and 18km/h respectively.

Distance covered by Mohan in 10 minutes = 24 × 10/60 = 4 km 

Distance covered by Sohan in 10 minutes = 18 × 10/60 = 3 km 

Therefore, total distance between P and Q = 4 + 3 = 7 km
