A man takes 6 hours 15 minutes in walking a distance and riding back to the starting place. He could walk both ways in 7 hours 45 minutes. The time taken by him to ride both ways, is Correct Answer 4 hours 45 minutes

Time taken in walking both ways = 7 hours 45 minutes                     --------(i)
