Vikas can cover a distance in 1hr 24min by covering 2/3 of the distance at 4 kmph and
the rest at 5kmph.the total distance is?
18 km
6 km
12 km
17 km
Explanation:
Let total distance be S
total time=1hr24min
A to T :: speed=4kmph
diistance=2/3S
T to S :: speed=5km
distance=1-2/3S=1/3S
21/15 hr=2/3 S/4 + 1/3s /5
84=14/3S*3
S=84*3/14*3 = 6km
