ANSWER WITH EXPLANATION

1. Answer: E 2x + 200=10y --------- (1)

Length of train A=2x x= z * 5/18 * 18
Length of train B=x x= 5z ---------- (2)
Speed of train A=y 2x= y * 5/18 * 18
Speed of train B=z 2x= 5y --------- (3)
2x + 200=y * 5/18 * 36 (3) in (1)

 Problem on Trains for Bank Exam – Question Bank Set 1 (Eng)
2x + 200 = 4x Required time = 400/(100/3) = 12 seconds
2x=200
x=100 4. Answer: C
Sub x=100 in (2) They meet x hours after 10 a.m.
100 =5 * z Distance covered by A in x hours = 40x km
z=20 kmph Distance covered by B in (x – 1) hours = 50 * (x –
1) km
2. Answer: C 40x + 50 * (x – 1) = 310
Length of train A=x 40x + 50x – 50 = 310
Length of train B=y 90x = 360
Speed of train B=z x=4
y=z * 5/18 * 12 They meet at 2 p.m.
3y=10z------(1)
y + 200=z * 5/18 * 20 5. Answer: B
9y + 1800=50z------(2) Length of the train = x
(1) * 5 Speed of the train = y
15y = 50z Length of the platform = z
9y + 1800 = 15y x = (y + 20) * 5/18 * 18
y=300 m x = 5y + 100
Speed of train B=3 * 300/10=90 kmph x = y * 5/18 * 27
x + 300=(90 + 60) *5/18 * 10.8 x = 15y/2
x+ 300=450 5y + 100 = 15y/2
x=150 m 5y = 200
y = 40 kmph
3. Answer: A x = 15 * 40/2 = 300 m
Relative speed = (50 + 70) * (5/18) = 100/3 m/s 300 + z = 40 * 5/18 * 45
We have to find the time taken by slower train to 300 + z = 500
cross the driver of the faster one. They didn’t z = 200 m
mean to cross full faster train. They told only to
cross the driver. So, 6. Answer: B
The distance covered = The length of slower train Let the speed of two trains be x m/s and y m/s
= 400 m respectively,

Then, the length of train A = 12x x = 70 kmph
The length of train B = 20y 250 = y * 5/18 * 12
[(12x + 20y) / (x + y)] = 15 750 = 10y
12x + 20y = 15x + 15y y = 75 kmph
20y – 15y = 15x – 12x Difference = 75 – 70 = 5 kmph
5y = 3x
x/y=5/3 9. Answer: B
The ratio of speed of train A and B = 5 : 3 Let the length of train and platform be x,
Given,
7. Answer: D [(x + x) / (60 * (5/18))] = 18
Let the speed of two trains be X and Y [(2x * 18) / (60 * 5)] = 18
Same direction, 2x = 300
54 = (150+150)/[(X – Y)*5/18] x = 150
54 = (300*18)/[(X – Y)*5] The length of train = 150 m
X – Y = 20 --- (1) The time taken by the train to cross an electronic
Opposite direction pole
12 = (150+150)/[(X + Y)*5/18] = > [150 / (60 * (5/18))]
12 = (300*18)/[(X + Y)*5] = > 9 seconds
X + Y = 90 --- (2)
By solving the equation (1) and (2), we get, 10. Answer: E
Y= 35 km/hr, X= 55km/hr Average speed per min. for without stoppage =
75/60 = 5/4 km/m
8. Answer: B Average speed per min. for with stoppage =
Distance = speed * time 50/60 = 5/6 km/m
Speed of train A = x Average difference per min. = 5/4 – 5/6 = 5/12
Speed of train B = y Stoppage time for hour = (5/12) * 60 = 25 mins

350 = x * 5/18 * 18
