Question

The ratio of the speeds of a car, a train and a bus is 5:9:4. The average speed of the car, the bus and the train is 72km/hr together. What is the average speed of the car and the train together?

  • 82 km/hr
  • 78 km/hr
  • 84 km/hr
  • Cannot be determined
  • None of the Above
Answer- C

Assume speeds of the car, train and bus be 5X km/h, 9X km/h and 4X km/h

Average speed = (5X + 9X + 4X) / 3 = 6X km/h

also, 6X = 72 => X = 12km/h

Average speed of car and train together is equal to (5X+9X)/2 = 7X

=>           84 km/h
