Answer / sneha
let the time travelled aftr travelling 180m be t
so the eqn becomes
180+x*t=10*x*t
solving we get xt=20
and total distance travelled is 180+20=200m

Answer / praveen
let Xmph be the speed of the ship. so after 1 hour it would
have travelled 180+x miles . and the plane would have
travelled 10x miles..
so the distance covered by the train and the plane is
180+x=10x;
180=9x;
x=20
so the distance travelled by the train is 180+20=200miles.

Answer / neha
Let ship and plane meet after d miles after 180 miles from
starting point.
Let t be the time taken to travel d miles by ship & 180+d
miles by plane
So the eqn is:
Time taken by ship to travel d by ship = Time taken by
plane to travel 180+d miles
d/x=180+d/10x
on solving, we get d = 20 miles
So they meet after 180+20 = 200 miles from starting point.
Ans = 200 miles

Answer / muhammed fayis pm
assume velocity of ship v1=1m/sec.so velocity of plane
v2=10m/sec.hence to reach 180 mile,plane takes 18sec,at
this time ship has covered 198miles.plane takes 1 sec to
reach 190mile from 180.while ship is at 199mile.plane
againe took 1 sec to reach 200 from 190.during this
remaining 1sec of ship, reaches to 200mile.so they meet at
200th mile

Answer / jayasankar
180 + (d/10) = d d = 20 ans is 180+20= 200 miles.

When Alexander the Great attacked the forces of Porus, an Indian soldier was captured by the Greeks. He had displayed such bravery in battle, however, that the enemy offered to let him choose how he wanted to be killed.
