If the dog reaches Ravi and comes back to Siva, and goes back to Ravi, and so on and so forth, until Siva meets Ravi, then find the total distance covered by the dog in metres.

Answer:

1,440 Metres is covered by the Dog.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance covered by Ravi in 6 Minutes = 45 x 6 = 270 Mts

Siva started 6 Minutes later than Ravi.

Siva and Ravi met after X Minutes

60X = 45X + 270

60X - 45X = 270

15X = 270

X = 270 / 15 = 18

Ravi and Siva met after 18 Minutes

Speed of Dog = 80 Metres

The Distance covered by Dog = 80 x 18 = 1,440 Metres

∴ The Distance covered by Dog is 1,440 Metres
