Question

I walk a certain distance and ride back taking a total time of 37 minutes. I could walk both ways in 55 minutes. How long would it take me to ride both ways ?


Options:
A .  19 min.
B .  20 min.
C .  22 min.
D .  25 min.
Answer: Option A

Let the distance be `x` km. Then,

(Time taken to walk `x` km) + (Time taken to ride `x` km) =  37 min.

`rArr `(Time taken to walk 2`x`km) + (Time taken to ride 2`x`km) = 74 min.

But , time taken to walk  2`x` km = 55 min.

`:.`     Time taken to ride 2`x`km =  (74 - 55) min = 19 min.
