Two buses cover the same distance, moving at speeds of 40 km/hr and 50 km/h, respectively. What is the distance covered by each of them (in km) if the slower bus takes one hour more than the faster bus?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 200.

Let distance = D km

According to the question,

⇒ D40−D50=1{D\over40}-{D\over50}=1

⇒ D200=1{D\over200}=1

⇒​​​​​​​ D = 200 km
