Answer:
64 Km
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the distance and t time taken by 2nd cyclist in hour.
Since one cyclist takes 16 min more, then,
x/15 = t + 16/60 ........--(1)
x/16 = t ........---(2)
Now subtracting equation (1) from equation (2) that is (1) - (2), we get,
x/15 - x/16 = 16/60
x/(15 × 16) = 16/60
x = (15 × 16)(16/60)
x = (15 × 16 × 16) / 60 = 64 km
x = 64 Km
Hence the answer = 64 Km
