The average speed of a train is 3 times the average speed of a car . The car covers a distance of 520 kms in 8 hours . How much distance will the train cover in 13 hours ?

Options

A. 2553 km
B. 2585 km
C. 2355 km
D. 2535

Answer

D

Explanation

Speed of car = `("Distance")/("Time")`
= `(520)/(8) = 65` kmph
`therefore` Speed of train = `65 xx 3 = 195` kmph
`therefore` Distance covered by train in 13 hours
`= 13 xx 195 = 2535` km.
