Correct Answer: 70 kmph
Solution : Given, Speed ratio of two cars = 5 : 7 Distance covered by the first car = 200 km Time taken by the first car = 4 hours ⇒ The speed of the first car = $\frac{200}{4}$ kmph = 50 kmph Since the ratio of speeds is 5 : 7, the speed of the second car = $\frac{7}{5}$ × speed of the first car = $\frac{7}{5} × 50$ km/hr = 70 kmph Hence, the correct answer is 70 kmph.
