A train can travel 50% faster than a car. Both start from point A at the same time and reach point B 75 kms away from A at the same time. On the way, however, the train lost about 12.5 minutes while stopping at the stations. The speed of the car is:
100 kmph
110 kmph
120 kmph
130 kmph
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let speed of the car be x kmph.

Then, speed of the train = 150 x = 3 x kmph.
100 2

75 - 75 = 125
x (3/2)x 10 x 60

75 - 50 = 5
x x 24

x = 25 x24 = 120 kmph.
