If a man walks at 14 km/h instead of 10 km/h, he would have walked 20 km more. What is the actual distance traveled by him?

A. 50 km

B. 70 km

C. 40 km

D. 60 km

Answer: Option A

Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)

Let the time taken be t hours. Distance difference = 14t - 10t = 4t = 20 km => t = 5 hours. Actual distance = 10 * 5 = 50 km.

Correct Answer: Option B

Explanation:
Let the speeds be 5x and 4x. Length of first train = 5x * 6 = 30x. Length of second train = 4x * 6 = 24x. Total passing distance = 30x + 24x = 54x. Relative speed = 5x + 4x = 9x. Time taken to cross each other = 54x / 9x = 6 seconds.
