Correct Answer: 1320 km
Solution : Relative distance = Relative speed × Time According to the question, Time taken by the trains to meet = $\frac{120}{60-50}$ = 12 hr Total distance from A to B = distance covered by slower train + distance covered by faster train = $(12 × 50) + (12 × 60)$ = $600 + 720$ = $1320$ km Hence, the correct answer is 1320 km.
