Question

A person goes to office at 3km/h and returns back tired at a speed of 2km/h. If he takes 5 hours in all, what is the distance between his home and the office?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let distance be x km

Now case 1 ( to office)

T1=x/3 ----------1

Case 2(to home)

T2 =x/2 ------------2

Given that T1+T2= 5

x/3+x/2=5

5x/6=5

5x=30

x=6 km

Hence distance between home and office is 6 km
