    Two runners covered the same distance at the rate of 10 km and 12 km per hour respectively. Find the distance covered when one takes 10 minutes more than the other.

    A)  12 km             

    B)  14 km 

    C)         18 km 

    D)         10 km 

    E)         None of these

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Let the distance be \[x\] km. Time taken by the first runner \[=\frac{x}{10}\] hrs Time taken by the second runner \[=\frac{x}{12}\] hrs Now,\[\frac{x}{10}-\frac{x}{12}=\frac{10}{60}\] or,\[\frac{6x-5x}{60}=\frac{1}{6}\] or,\[\frac{x}{60}=\frac{1}{6}\] or,\[x=\frac{60}{6}=10\]km
