Hi;

Answers to Questions 2 & 3 are correct. Question 4 seems incomplete and Question 1's answer 240 should read 720.

Please re-check and advise for further explaination.

Refer to Question 4.

Motor cycles A&B meet at point 3.6Km from the starting point. I think this is what can be inferred from the answer U mentioned. A & B meet after 54 minutes of starting.
