Question 388649
 A cyclist goes from one village to another at 28 km/h. he returns at 24 km/h. if the return journey takes two hours longer than the outward journey. What is the distance between the villages?
...
distance = x km
..
outward speed = 28km/h
return speed = 24 km/h
...
time return - time outward = 2 
...
t=d/r
...
x/24-x/28=2
(28x-24x)/24*28=2
4x=2*24*28
/4
x= 2*24*28/4
{{{(highlight(x=336km))}}}
