Question

Ram and hari started from a and b, towards b and a at 6 : 00 am and 7 : 00 am respectively. They meet each other at 9 : 00 am and continued towards their respective destinations. Ram reaching b turns back and catches up with hari before hari reaches a at 11 : 00 am. At what time will hari reach at a?

Answer 1

Answer:

1pm he will reach at the point a

Answer 2

Hari will reach A at 6 pm.

Explanation:

• Let ram’s speed be “z” and Hari’s speed be “y”.  After Ram started from  3 hours(6.00 am) and after 2 hrs, Hari started from B (7.00 am), both meet at 9.00 am.
• So, while they are meeting at a certain time Ram is 3z and Hari is 2y.
• Now since they are meeting at 11.00 am and while this 2 hr distance travelled by Ram is 2z.
• And the distance is 2y that is travelled by hari. 2y is the distance that is travelled when hari is travelling to B then to A.

So, total travelling from one place to other= 6y.

Thus 2z = 6y => z = 3y

So, 3z+2y=11y is the total distance travelled.

Hari has already covered 4y distance.

For covering remaining 7y distance, he needs 7 hrs.

So the time is 11.00 am + 7hrs = 6pm .
