A man travels 100 in 5 h. If he increases his speed by 5 km/h, then find the time taken by him to travel the same distance.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`"Speed " = ("Distance")/("Time") = (100)/(5) = 20 "km/h"`
Increased speed = 20+5 = 25 km/h
`therefore " Time taken to travel at 25 km/h" = (100)/(25) = 4h`
