Answer : 2. "480 kms"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 480 kms Explanation: Now, the distance covered by Chennai express in 2 hrs = 60 x 2 = 120 kms Let the Charminar Express takes 't' hrs to catch Chennai express => 80 x t = 60 x (2 + t) => 80 t = 120 + 60t => t = 6 hrs Therefore, the distance away from Hyderabad the two trains meet = 80 x 6 = 480 kms.
