Question Statement:

Two cyclists start at the same time towards each other from points 90 km apart and meet in 3 hours. If one travels 6 km/h faster than the other, the speed of the faster cyclist is:

Options:

  • (A) 18 km/h
  • (B) 15 km/h
  • (C) 20 km/h
  • (D) 16 km/h

Answer Key:

A

Step-by-Step Solution & Explanation

Relative speed $= 90 / 3 = 30$ km/h. $v + (v + 6) = 30 \implies 2v = 24 \implies v = 12$ km/h. Faster cyclist $= 12 + 6 = 18$ km/h.
