Let speed of jake = x kmph. So, speed of paul = ( x - 1.5 ) kmph. Time difference =1.5hours Total Distance = 10km 10/(x-1.5) -10/x = 1.5 its consume more time to solve. lets take substitution meathod 1) 4 ->(10 / 2.5) - (10 / 4) =1.4 ->4 - 2.5 =1.5 ->1.5 = 1.5 4 is correct option

Time is equal for two cases then D1 / S1 = D2 / S2 ( D1= CAR A Distance, D2 = CAR B Distance , S1 = CAR A Speed , S2 = CAR B Speed, ) lets assume Car A distance is X and car B distance is X+150 then X / 50 = X+150 / 60, by solving we get X= 600 the total distance =600 + (600 + 150 ) = 1320 km
