A train speeds past a pole in 15 seconds and a platform 100
m long in 25 seconds. Its length is

Answer Posted / sindu.m

The answer is 150m.
Let the length of the train be x metres and its speed by y
m/sec.

Then,
x/y = 15 => y = x/15 .
Therefore
(x + 100)/25 = x/15
=> 15(x + 100) = 25x
=> 15x + 1500 = 25x
=> 1500 = 10x
=> x = 150 m.
