Two trains A and B starting from two points and travelling in opposite directions, reach their destinations 9 hours and 4 hours respectively after meeting each other. If the train A travels at 100kmph, find the rate at which the train B runs.
Choices
A) 40 B) 60 C) 150 D) 80 E) 100

Rationale: "if two objects a and b start simultaneously from opposite points and , after meeting , reach their destinations in ‘ a ’ and ‘ b ’ hours respectively ( i . e . a takes ‘ a hrs ’ to travel from the meeting point to his destination and b takes ‘ b hrs ’ to travel from the meeting point to his destination ) , then the ratio of their speeds is given by : sa / sb = √ ( b / a ) i . e . ratio of speeds is given by the square root of the inverse ratio of time taken . sa / sb = √ ( 4 / 9 ) = 2 / 3 this gives us that the ratio of the speed of a : speed of b as 2 : 3 . since speed of a is 100 kmph , speed of b must be 100 * ( 3 / 2 ) = 150 kmph answer c"
Answer: C
