    None of these

    Explanation

    When Train is crossing a platform then train has to travel distance equal to sum of length of platform and its own length/ Hence, Distance to travel by the train in order to cross the platform = 240 +300 = 540 m Time taken = 27 sec Distance = Speed × Time ⇒ 540 = Speed × 27 ⇒ Speed = 20 m/s = 20 × 18/5 = 72 km/hr
