➜. Let the speed of ram be x
A.T.Q.
➜. shyam's speed = x +20% of x
= x +20/100 × x
= x + 20x/100
= (100x +20x)/100
= 120x/100
=6x/5
➜. Shyam's speed = 6x/5.
➜. Distance covered by ram = speed × time
= x × 6
= 6x
➝Therefore, distance covered by shyam = 6x
➜ Time taken by shyam = Distance/Speed
= 6x /(6x/5)
= 6x × 5/6x
= 5 Hours
