In 12hrs, the car can reaches a certain distance at speed of 60Km/hrs.
i.e. in 1 hrs the car can reaches the same distance at speed of (12×60)Km/hrs=720Km/hrs.
So, in 10hrs the car can reaches the same distance at speed of (720/10)Km/hrs=72Km/hrs.
Thus, the speed of car should be increased by (72–60)Km/hrs=12Km/hrs.
