Question

Renu travelled a certain distance in 2 hours and 5 minutes.She travelled this distance partly by car and partly by bus.The speed of the bus is 28 kmph and the speed of the car is 42 kmph. If the distance travelled by car is equal to the distance travelled by bus, what is the total distance that she travelled?

Answer 1

Total distance traveled is 70km
75 minutes in bus and 40 minutes in car
Take total distance traveled as X
and distance traveled by car and bus as X/2
Time taken bus as Y and car as total time minus Y
form equations and solve them
