Explanation:

Speed of the train = 6x m/s, speed of the man = x m/s

length of the train = 650m,

time taken to cross a pole = 1 minute 5 seconds = 65 seconds

S =	D/
	T

6x =	650/
	65

x =	10/	=	5/
	6		3

Speed of the man =	5/	m/s
	3

Man can cross the 240m platform in	240/
	5/3

= 144 seconds = 2 minutes 24 seconds

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
