given s1=75kmph
reduced 15kmph s2 =60kmph
avg speed = 2xy/x+y
2×75×60/75+60
150×60/135
10×60/9
600/9
200/3
speed=200/3
time= 4.5hrs
speed=distance/time
distance=speed×time
distance=200/3×9/2
d=100×3=300kms is answer

dinah65: answer given 150 in key
harshitha006: total distance 150 for going and 150 for returning so 300 is answer
harshitha006: if it's only in 1 direction 150 will be answer
dinah65: okay so.. actually distance is 150
dinah65: between A and B
harshitha006: yes if it's only between a and b 150 will be answer
dinah65: thank you..so much
