A train travelling at a speed of 75 mph enters a tunnel 3 1/2miles long. The train is 1/4 mile long. How long does it take for the train to pass through the tunnel from the moment the front enters to the moment the rear emerges?

2 min

2.5 min

3 min

4 min

Explanation:

Total distance covered =(7/2 + 1/4)miles =15/4miles

Time taken = (15 /4*75)hrs =1/20hrs

=(1/20*60)min = 3 min

Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
