a train passes a man standing on a platform in 8 seconds and also crosses the platform which is 264 metres long in 20 seconds. the length of the train ( in metres ) is:
multiply(divide(264, subtract(20, 8)), 8)
"explanation : let the length of train be l m . acc . to question ( 264 + l ) / 20 = l / 8 2112 + 8 l = 20 l l = 2112 / 12 = 176 m answer b"
