Abdul traveled 300km by train and 200 km by taxi it took him 5hours and 30minutes but if he travels 260 km by train and 340 km by taxi he takes 6 minutes longer .find the speed of train and that of the taxi
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "time + time = total time
\n" ); document.write( "300/r + 200/x = 5.5
\n" ); document.write( "260/r + 340x = 5.6
\n" ); document.write( "========
\n" ); document.write( "Modify::
\n" ); document.write( "260(300/r) + 260(200/x) = 260*5.5
\n" ); document.write( "300(260/r) + 300(340/x) = 300*5.6
\n" ); document.write( "=====
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract and solve for x
\n" ); document.write( "50000(1/x) = 250
\n" ); document.write( " x = 50000/250
\n" ); document.write( "x = 200 km/hr (taxi rate)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Then solve for \"r\"
