A is the answer because I did befor
Form an equation using the information given
-4x - 6x = -20
simplify
-10x = -20
then solve by dividing by -10
x = -20/-10
x = 2
Both the train will meet after 36 minutes.
<h3>Concept:</h3>
- To find when both the train will meet again at the same time, we need to find the LCM of the frequency.
<h3>How to solve the given question?</h3>
- Frequency of express train = 9 minutes = 3 × 3
- Frequency of local train = 12 minutes = 2 × 2 × 3
- LCM = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 = 36
Thus, both the train will meet after 36 minutes.
