Den Bosh and Eastbourne are two famous cities 300 km apart. Maradona starts from Den Bosch at 8 : 24 am. An hour later Pele starts from Den Bosch. After travelling for 1 hour, Pele reaches Nottingham that Maradona had passed 40 minutes earlier. Nott…

Question

Accepted Answer

Let pele covers D km in 1 hours. So Maradona takes (2 h - 40 min) = 1 h 20 min to cover D km.
Let speed of Maradona and pele be M and P respectively than.
D = M x 4/3 and D = P x 1
M/P = 3/4
Again, 300/M - 300/P = 1
300/3k - 300/4k = 1
k = 25
M = 3k = 75 km/h and
P = 4k = 100 km/h
