Good to see you here. Now back to the train. 

Kaduna, K                                                                                   Lagos, L
 
Train leaves at 64 km/h

One hour late second train leaves Lagos at 96 km/h.

At the point they meet, if first train has been travelling for "x" hours. Second train has been travelling for (x-1) hour.

At the point the meet, the total distance travelled is equal to 624 km.

Therefore:

64(x) + 96(x-1) = 624
64x + 96x - 96 = 624
160x = 624+96
160x =       720             , x = 720/160 = 4.5

So when they meet, the first train which left Kaduna has travelled= 64x = 64*4.5= 288km from Kaduna.

So it is (624-288) km from Lagos. = 336 Km from Lagos.

Second train which left Lagos has travelled = 96(x-1) = 96(4.5-1) = 336km.
The second train is also 336 km away from Lagos.

Cheers.

Answer:

Hope 292.5 is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing, multiply the triangles base and height which will give you 143 then divide it by two which is 71.5. Then to the parallelogram which is base times height which is 117. Moving on to the trapezoid, meanin one-hal times height times first base plus second base giving you 104. Finally, add'em up, giving you a total of 292.5.
