Question

two cyclists covers the same distance in 15 km/hr and 16km/hr, respectively. Find the distance travelled by each, if one take 16 min longer than the other does? options are a. 24 km b.64 m c.64 km d.24 m

Answer 1

Explanation:

Hey buddy here is ur ans

Let time = t

So we equate the equal distance like so

10 kmph x t + (40/60 x 10)= 15 kmph x t

10t + 6,67 = 15t

5t = 6,67

t = 1,33 hours

therefore distance = s x t

= 10 x 1,33 + 6,67 = 20 km

= 15 x 1,33 = 20 km
