Time & Distance Mcqs
Q. A man covers a distance of 20 km in 3.5 hours partly by running and partly by walking. If he walks at 4 kmph and runs at 10 kmph, find the distance he covers by walking.
a. 10 km
b. 8 km
c. 12 km
d. 9 km
Let the distance covered by walking be x km
the distance covered by running be (20-x) km Time for walking + time for running = 3.5 hours (x/4)+[(20-x)/10]=3.5 Solving,
5x+40-2x = 70
3x=30
x=10km
