A 300 meter long train crosses a platform in 45 seconds while it crosses a signal pole in 18 seconds. What is the length of the platform? Choose the correct option:
A) 99	B) 450	C) 350	D) 882	E) 281

Rationale: "speed = [ 300 / 18 ] m / sec = 50 / 3 m / sec . let the length of the platform be x meters . then , x + 300 / 45 = 50 / 3 3 ( x + 300 ) = 2250 è x = 450 m . answer : b"
Answer: B
