Question

A farmer travelled a distance of 61 km in 9 hours. He travelled partly on foot @ 4 km/hr and partly on bicycle @ 9 km/hr. The distance travelled on foot is:

Options:
A .  14 km
B .  15 km
C .  16 km
D .  17 km
Answer: Option C

Let the distance travelled on foot be x km.


Then, distance travelled on bicycle = (61 -x) km.


So, \(\frac{x}{4}+\frac{(61-x)}{9}=9\)


9x + 4(61 -x) = 9 x 36


 5x = 80


 x = 16 km.
