Given : x takes 2 1/2 hours more than that taken by y to cover a certain distance .if x doubles his speed ,he can cover the same distance in 1 1/2 hours less than that taken by y for the same distance
To Find : how much time (in hours ) does y require to cover the two third of the same distance
Solution:
Distance = Speed * Time
Let say Distance is D km
and Y take time T hr
X takes Time = T + 5/2 = (2T + 5)/2 hr
Speed of X = D/(2T + 5)/2 = 2D/(2T + 5) km/hr
x doubles his speed , => 2 * 2D/(2T + 5) = 4D/(2T + 5) km/hr
Time taken = D/ 4D/(2T + 5) = (2T + 5)/4 hrs
(2T + 5)/4 = T - 3/2
=> 2T + 5 = 4T - 6
=> 2T = 11
=> T = 11/2 hrs
Y covers the distance in 11/2 Hrs
2/3 Distance will be covered in (2/3) (11/2) = 11/3 hrs
