A train passes a station platform in 36 seconds and a man standing on the platform in 20 seconds. If the speed of the train is 54 km/hr, what is the length of the platform?

Answer: B

Speed = (54 * 5/18) m/sec = 15 m/sec. Length of the train = (15 x 20)m = 300 m.

Let the length of the platform be x meters.

Then, (x + 300)/36 = 15 ==> x + 300 = 540

x = 240 m.
