Train 1 = 50kph from east and train 2 is 60kph from west. When both meet 1 has covered X km and 2 has X + 120km. Find the distance between stations?

• x/50=(x+120)/60,
  x=600
  now,
  distance bw station
  x+x+120=1320

• 12*60=720
  12*50=600
  720-600=120
  so, total 1320

• distance is directly proportional to speed. so ratio of distances will be equal to ratio of speeds of the two trains.
  so
  (x+12)/x = 60/50
  on solving this linear equation in one variable we get x = 600
  so train 1 travels 600 and train 2 travels 600+120=720
  thus total distance travelled is 1320

• 12*60=720 x+120,12hr 1hr 10 km by 2......
  12*50=600
  total 1320

• they both meet at a point...hence time is equal..
  t=distance/velocity...
  x/50 = (x+120)/60
  x=600...distance=600+720=1320 km..
