A boy travelled from the home to the college at the rate of 25 km/hr and walked back at the rate of 4 km/hr. If the whole journey took 5 hours 48 minutes, Find the distance of the college from the home? Correct Answer 20 km
Let, The distance of the college from the home = x km ATQ, x25 + x5 = 5 hours 48 minutes ⇒x25 + x4 = (5 + 4860) hours ⇒4x + 25x100 = 295⇒29x100 = 295⇒x = 29×1005×29.'. x = 20
