If a man walks at a rate of 5kmph, he misses a train by 7minutes. However, if he walks at the rate of 6kmph, he reaches the station 5minutes before the arrival of the train. Find the distance covered by him to reach the station.	Choose the correct choice from the following choices:  A) 8  B) 4  C) 15  D) 6  E) 12
Let the required distance x km   difference in the times taken at two speeds = 12min = 1/5 hr   (x/5)-(x/6) = 1/5   x = 6   the required distance is 6 km   Answer is 6
