Let the speed of train B be x, then speed of A will be x-12.
\n" ); document.write( "Time taken by A = 230/(x-12)
\n" ); document.write( "Time taken By B = 290 / x
\n" ); document.write( "Given that the time taken by train A = Train B
\n" ); document.write( "Then, 230/(x-12)= 290/x
\n" ); document.write( "=> 23X=29x-348
\n" ); document.write( "=> 6x = 348
\n" ); document.write( "=> x = 58\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "therefore the speed of train A is (x-12 = 58-12)46 and Train B is 58.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
