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

70 km/hr

75 km/hr

84 km/hr

87.5 km/hr

Answer : Option D

Explanation :

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

Then 8X= $[\frac { 400} { 4 }]=100$

x = $[\frac { 100} { 8 }]=12.5$

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