[A]. 9 a.m.
[B]. 10 a.m.
[C]. 10.30 a.m.
[D]. 11 a.m.
✅ The correct answer is option B.
Suppose they meet x hours after 7 a.m.
Distance covered by A in x hours = 20x km.
Distance covered by B in (x – 1) hours = 25(x – 1) km.
20x + 25(x – 1) = 110
45x = 135
x = 3.
So, they meet at 10 a.m.
Suppose they meet x hours after 7 a.m.
Distance covered by A in x hours = 20x km.
Distance covered by B in (x – 1) hours = 25(x – 1) km.
20x + 25(x – 1) = 110
45x = 135
x = 3.
So, they meet at 10 a.m.
