The ratio between the speeds of two trains is 7 : 8 . If the second train runs 400 kms. in 4 hours, then the speed of the first train


Options:
A .  70 km/hr
B .  75 km/hr
C .  84 km/hr
D .  87.5 km/hr
Answer: Option D

Let the speeds of two trains be 7`x` and 8`x`  km/hr.

Then , `8x = 400/4` =  100    `rArr  x = (100/8)` = 12.5.

`:.`     Speed of first train = (7 x 12.5)  km/hr =  87.5 km/hr
