A passenger train running at the speed of 80 km/h leaves the railway station 6 hour after good train leave overtake it in 4 hour , the speed of good train is ?

• let speed of goods train is y km/hr.
  distance travelled by goods train in 6 hours=6y km.
  relative speed =(80-y)km/hr.
  since passenger train overtakes goods train in 4 hours. so,6y=4*(80-y)
  so, y=32km/hr.

• passenger train travels at a speed of 80 km/h after 6 hours it had traveled distance 480 km(6*80).
  but goods traveled same distance in 4 hours .so speed=distance/time (480/4) =120 km/hour.

• It is simple problem
  Passenger train travel only 4 hours at speed of 80 km/h so total time is 80 * 4 = 320
  similarly good train travel 6 hours + 4 hours = 10 hours and distance to cover is 320
  simply speed of good train is 320/10 = 32 Answer

• Passenger train travels for 4 hr
  So distance covered by it= 80*4=320km.
  Now good train has traveled for (6+4)hrs=10hr
  But covered same distance as passenger train.
  So speed of good train=(320/10)=32km/hr

• passenger train travels at a speed of 80km/h after 6 covers 480 kmph
  goods cross the distance in 4 hours,so distance in 4 hours=480/4=120kmph

• Speed of Passenger rain = 80km/h and overtakes goods train in 4 hours
  Therefore Distance covered by the Passenger train is = speed * time = 80*4 = 320km
  Good Train leave 6 hour before Passenger train hence Time Traveled = 6h
  Speed of Good Train = distance/time = 320/6 = 53.3km/h

• Passenger train travel only 4 hours at speed of 80 km/h so total distance travel is 80 * 4 = 320
  let y be the speed of goods train...
  And good train travel on that time ( 6 hours + 4 hours) = 10 hours and distance covered is y*10
  so speed is 80*4=y*10
  320=10y
  y= 32 km/h Answer

• 80*4=320km.is the distance traveled to over take goods train.
  goods train also travel same distance but in 10h hours
  hence speed =320/10=32 km/h
