Speed of man = 5mph
Speed of woman = 4mph
As they are travelling towards each other, relative speed to cover 81 miles will be 5+4=9mph
Hence to cover the distance of 81 miles they would take 81/9 = 9hours.
In 9 hours the woman travelling at 4mph would have covered 9×4=36miles.
Speed of woman = 4mph
As they are travelling towards each other, relative speed to cover 81 miles will be 5+4=9mph
Hence to cover the distance of 81 miles they would take 81/9 = 9hours.
