Solution

To solve this problem, we need to break it down into two parts: the distance the train traveled before the accident, and the distance it traveled after the accident.

  1. Before the accident: The train was traveling at a speed of 105 km/hr for 7 hours. So, the distance covered is speed * time = 105 km/hr * 7 hr = 735 km.

  2. After the accident: The speed of the train decreased by 30 km/hr, so it was now traveling at 105 km/hr - 30 km/hr = 75 km/hr. The train was late by 4 hours and 48 minutes, which means it traveled for 7 hours (the original time) + 4 hours and 48 minutes (the delay) = 11.8 hours. So, the distance covered is speed * time = 75 km/hr * 11.8 hr = 885 km.

  3. To find the total distance of the journey, we add the distances covered before and after the accident: 735 km + 885 km = 1620 km.

None of the options match the calculated total distance. There might be a mistake in the problem or the options provided.
