Solution

To solve this problem, we need to find the difference in distance covered by the two trains in 45 minutes.

Step 1: Convert the speed of the trains from km/h to km/min by dividing by 60. This gives us 45/60 = 0.75 km/min for the first train and 40/60 = 0.67 km/min for the second train.

Step 2: Multiply the speed of each train by the time to find the distance each train travels. This gives us 0.75 km/min * 45 min = 33.75 km for the first train and 0.67 km/min * 45 min = 30.15 km for the second train.

Step 3: Subtract the distance travelled by the second train from the distance travelled by the first train to find the distance between the two trains. This gives us 33.75 km - 30.15 km = 3.6 km.

So, the distance between the two trains after 45 minutes is 3.6 km. However, this option is not available in the given options. The closest option is 3 km 750 m.
