X and Y start walking towards each other at 8: 00 am at the speeds of 3 km/h and 4 km/h, respectively. They were initially 17.5 km apart. At what time do they meet?

A) 10 : 30 am

B) 10 : 30 pm

C) 11: 30 am

D) 11: 30 pm

Correct Answer: A

Solution :

Let they meet after x h.

Then, according to the question,

\[3x+4x=17.5\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[7x=17.5\]

\[\therefore \] \[x=\frac{17.5}{7}=2.5\,\,h\]

So, they meet 2.5 h after 8: 00 am. It means they meet at 10: 30 am.
