At the same time, Raj reduced his speed equal to the speed of Ashok. What is the difference of time taken by them if the distance between A and B is 42 km:

Solution:
👈: Video Solution
let the speed of Ashok and Raj are
x
kmph and
y
kmph. If Ashok start one hour earlier and Raj can catch him in two hours. Then,
Distance travelled by Ashok in
3
h
r
. = Distance travelled by Raj in
2
h
r
.
3
x
=
2
y
.
.
.
(
i
)
But Ashok increased his speed as Raj speed and takes
5
h
r
. to complete the distance of
42
k
m
So,
42
=
5
y
⇒
y
=
8.4
k
m
p
h
And
x
=
2
3
y
=
5.6
k
m
p
h
If Raj reduced his speed as Ashok's speed, then time taken by him
=
42
5.6
=
7.5
h
r
.
So time difference
=
7.5
−
5
=
2.5
h
r
.
