For Competitive Exams

A man takes 5 hours 45 min in walking to a certain place and riding back. He would have gained 2 hours by riding both ways. The time he would take to walk both ways is

11 hrs

8 hrs 45 min

7 hrs 45 min

9 hts 20 min

Explanation:

Given that time taken for riding both ways will be 2 hours lesser than

the time needed for waking one way and riding back

From this, we can understand that

time needed for riding one way = time needed for waking one way - 2 hours

Given that time taken in walking one way and riding back = 5 hours 45 min

Hence The time he would take to walk both ways = 5 hours 45 min + 2 hours = 7 hours 45 min

In fact, you can do all these calculations mentally and save a lot of time

which will be a real benefit for you.
