Ramesh and Naresh start running at speeds of 26 km/h and 18 km/h respectively towards each other, they meet after one hour and 45 minutes. How far (in metres) were they from each other when they started running?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The Correct answer is Option 2 i.e.77000.
Ramesh and Naresh start running at speeds of 26 km/h and 18 km/h respectively towards each other
Relative speed = 26 + 18 = 44 km/hr
Total time = 1 + 45/60 = 1 + 0.75 = 1.75 hrs
Distance = Relative speed × Total time
Distance = 44 × 1.75 = 77 km
Distance in meters = 77 × 1000 = 77000 m
