Q. Two cars A and B start from 2 points P and Q respectively towards each other simultaneously. After travelling some distance at point R , car A develops engine trouble. It continues to travel 2/3rd of its usual speed to meet car B at a point S where PR= QS. If the engine trouble had occurred after car A had travelled double the distance it would have met car B at a point T where ST= SQ/ 9. Find the ratio of speeds of A and B ?

This feels more like an algebra I homework problem than a GMAT problem: it's just tedious busy work, which is not the GMAT style! Be careful of this source if you're using it for GMAT questions.

You seem to be posting a lot of questions that are not at all GMAT-like questions. What is the source of these questions? If you're studying from a non-GMAT-like source, you won't have nearly as good an understanding of the GMAT as if you studied from high-quality sources.

If these are questions that you're writing yourself, I'd ask you to please stop posting them. They can only serve to confuse other students.
