A plane takes 6 hours to fly from Vancouver to Toronto, and 5 hours to return back. The wind velocity is 50 kilometers per hour, from Toronto to Vancouver. What is the speed of the airplane?
===========
"to return back." is redundant.
Just say "to return."
============
Not enough info to solve.
Knowing the distance would make it solvable.
-------
50 km/hr is not a velocity, it's a speed since the direction is not given.
--------
PS Wind speed and plane's speed (airspeed) use knots, not km/hr.
=====================
People who don't know the subject matter should not try to author math problems.
