An engine pulls four identical carriages. The engine is 2/3 the length of a carriage and the total length of the train is 86.8m. Find the length of the engine.

  • A. 12.4m
  • B. 12.4m
  • C. 12.4m
  • D. 12.4m

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the length carriage=x

So the length of engine=(⅔)*X

According to question,

4x+(⅔)x=86.8

We get, x=8.266

So the length of engine = (⅔)*8.266=12.4
