The answer is (B).

q: Two trains are moving at 60 kmph and 70 kmph in opposite directions. Their lengths are 150 m and 100 m respectively. The time they will take to pass each other completely is?
Options:
(A) 6 12/13 sec
(B) 7 1/7 sec
(C) 7 2/2 sec
(D) 8 1/2 sec
(E) 7 1/9 sec
a: OK... 70 + 60 = 130 * 5/18 = 325/9 mps
D = 150 + 100 = 250 m
T = 250 * 9/325 = 90/13 = 6 12/13 sec
The answer is (A).

OK... Let the time taken be = x
One way distance = 63x
Total distance traveled = 2 * 63x = 126x
Total time taken = x + 2x = 3x
Average speed = 126x/3x = 42
The answer is (D).
