Answer:
When he walks,
Speed = 6 km/h
Distance = x km ( suppose)
Thus, the time taken by him in walking = hours,
( Because, time = distance/speed )
Now, when he runs,
Speed = 8 km/h
Distance = (6-x) km, ( Because, he covers 6 km partly by walking and partly by running )
Thus, the time taken by him in walking = hours,
Since, According to the question,
The total time taken by him in both walking and running = 50 minutes

And, the distance he covers in running = 6 - 2 = 4 km.
