The forewheel of a carriage makes 6 revolutions more more than the rearwheel in going 120 m. If the diameter of the forewheel be increased by `1/4` its present diameter and the diameter of the rearwheel be increased by `1/5` of its present diameter, then the forewheel makes 4 revolutions more than the rearwheel in going the same distance. Find the circumference of each wheel of the carriage.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
Cirumference of forewheel is 4 m and circumference of rearwheel is 5 m.
