Sample Question

A train travels 360 km at a uniform speed. If the speed had been 5 km/h more, the journey would have taken 1 hour less. Find the speed.

A40 km/h
B45 km/h
C36 km/h
D50 km/h
Why you got it wrong

You may have guessed 45 km/h. Set up: 360/s - 360/(s+5) = 1. Solving: s² + 5s - 1800 = 0 → s = 40 km/h.
