Answer Posted / sabarishsankar
let A goes up and B comes down.
assume A takes 1 step in 1sec.
hence,B takes 5 steps in 1sec.
50 steps ll be moved by A in 50/1=50secs
125 steps ll be moved by B in 125/5=25 secs
hence speed of escalator=(difference of no of
steps)/(difference of time)
speed=(125-50)/(50-25)= 3 steps/sec
hence during upward journey of 50secs by A,total steps=50 by
A and 150 by escalator..total=150+50=200
during downward journey of 25 secs by B,total steps=125 by B
and 75 by escalator..total=125+75=200steps.
ANS:200 steps
