Question

If a person walks at 14 km/hr instead of 10 km/hr, he would have walked 20 km more. The actual distance travelled by him is:

Options:

A . 50 km

B . 56 km

C . 70 km

D . 80 km

Answer: Option A

Let the actual distance travelled be x km.

Then,\(\frac{x}{10} = \frac{x+20}{14}\)

14x = 10x + 200

4x = 200

x = 50 km.
