A man takes 6 hours 15 minutes in walking a distance and riding back to the starting place. He could walk both ways in 7 hours 45 minutes. Find the time taken by his to ride both ways.

Answer

To solve the problem step by step, we will break down the information given and calculate the required time taken by the man to ride both ways.

### Step 1: Convert the times into a consistent format
First, we need to convert the times given in hours and minutes into a single unit (minutes) for easier calculations.

- Time taken to walk both ways = 7 hours 45 minutes
- Convert to minutes: \(7 \times 60 + 45 = 420 + 45 = 465\) minutes

- Time taken to walk one way and ride back = 6 hours 15 minutes
- Convert to minutes: \(6 \times 60 + 15 = 360 + 15 = 375\) minutes
